മലയാളം: വാസ്കോ ഡ ഗാമ മെമ്മോറിയൽ
"No one has tried to clear that misconception [that Vasco da Gama landed at Kappad]. The government has even installed a memorial stone at the Kappad beach. Actually [Vasco da] Gama landed at Panthalayini near Kollam in the [Kozhikode] district because there was a port there and Kozhikode did not have one. It does not have a port even now."[1] M. G. S. Narayanan
