Comment posted Catalogue of ancient Nasrani Churches, their affiliations and population statistics in the background of division and attempts of Reconciliation- A review of Literature by Manu Kuruvilla.

Sir,

I am confused with “Kattoor” and “Kottara” churches in the list.. I would like to know where those places in the map?? Does those refer to “Kottoor Church” situated near Kolenchery in Ernakulam District. Kottoor Church is dedicated to St. George and seems to be the second oldest of all Churches in Ernakulam District. It is believed to be build in 4th/5th century… Can u please clarify me on this…

Regards,
Manu Kuruvilla
