The Peralummoottil family is an ancient Suriyani (Syrian) Christian family in Kerala, India. They are popularly known as Syrian Christians in view of the Syriac (classical form of Aramaic) liturgy used in church services since the early days of Christianity in India and not for any Syrian migration. They are also known as ''Nasrani'' (followers of Jesus the Nazarene). ==History==
According to tradition, St. Thomas, the apostle visited Kerala in A.D. 52, as part of his missionary work in Persia, India and Afghanistan.〔Bayly, Susan ''Saints, Goddesses and Kings in South Indian Society'' Cambridge University Press 22 April 2004 ISBN 978-0-521-89103-5 ()〕 It is believed thatfour Brahmin families namely Kalli, Kaliyankal, Pakalomattom and Sankarapuri were evangelized by Thomas the Apostle.〔Frykenberg, Eric (2008). (''Christianity in India: from Beginnings to the Present'' ), p. 93. Oxford University Press. ISBN 0-19-826377-5.〕 There is no direct contemporary evidence for Thomas being in the subcontinent, though it definitely would have been possible for a Roman Jew of the time to make such a trip. The earliest known source connecting the apostle to India is the ''Acts of Thomas'', written in Edessa likely in the 2nd century.〔〔Bornkamm, G. "The Acts of Thomas" in E. Hennecke, New Testament Apocrypha, Vol. 2. London: Lutterworth, 1965.〕 The text describes Thomas' adventures in bringing Christianity to India, a tradition later expanded upon in early Indian sources such as the "Thomma Parvam" ("Song of Thomas").〔Frykenberg, Eric (2008). (''Christianity in India: from Beginnings to the Present'' ), p. 92. Oxford University Press. ISBN 0-19-826377-5.〕〔"The Song of Thomas Ramban" in Menachery G (ed); (1998) "The Indian Church History Classics", Vol. I, The Nazranies, Ollur, 1998. (81-87133-05-8 )〕 According to a Malabar tradition that he ordained Bishops and priests from the Pakalomattom and Sankarapuri families. In course of time, the members of Pakalomattom Tharvadu, divided into different branches and settled in different places and one branch from them came to Kuravilangad and settled there. The families namely Pakalomattom, Kudukkassery, Thumpassery, Panamkuzha alias Palliveettil, Manakkad, Kurialassery and Nidheerickal were some of them known to have lived with high reputation and integrity during the 17th Century.
