Pongal، Encyclopaedia Britannica (2011)، Quote: "Pongal, three-day Tamil festival held throughout South India. It is celebrated on the winter solstice, when, according to the traditional Tamil system of reckoning, the Sun, having reached its southernmost point, turns to the north again and reenters the sign of makara (Capricorn)، usually on جنوری 14."
