Here many seek a livelihood based on Thazha or [[screw pine]]. Screw pine weaving of mats is one of the oldest crafts popular in Thazhava. Even though now the weaving of screw pine mats have been comparatively reduced than the earlier times, there exists few traditional weavers who still continue this profession. Mats are now being exported within as well as outside India.<br />
<br />
In the ancient times, screw pine mats were weaved and distributed in bulk to various provinces within Kerala including [[Travancore]] province.<br />
