- Short maxims on ethics
- Long descriptive poems and lyrical narratives
- Fables about animals
- Royal genealogies
Answer: Long descriptive poems and lyrical narratives
Unlike the short verses of the Ettuthokai, the Pattuppattu contains ten longer poems that provide vivid descriptions of the landscape, cities, and patron kings of the Sangam era.
