What do you mean by 'predicted'?
As I understand the article, he described a tsunami like phenomenon in ancient times.. |

Hi Dani,
Of course, he only described the tsunami, but by chance the town most damaged last December with the tsunami was Nagapattinam. It's just a way of talking. BTW, I don't believe in predictions.. Jorge |
