Sagarmatha Zone
Sagarmāthā () was one of the fourteen zones of Nepal until the restructuring of zones into provinces. "Sagarmāthā" is a Nepali word derived from सगर् (sagar) meaning "sky" and माथा (māthā) meaning "head".
U. V. Swaminatha Iyer
It was due to his efforts that the world came to know the literary output of the ancient Tamils and their past. Tamil poet and nationalist Subramania Bharati, who inspired the freedom movement with his songs, admired Swaminatha Iyer. Paying tribute to Swaminatha Iyer in one of his poems, Bharati equated Iyer with the sage, Agastya when he called him "Kumbamuni". (Agastya, who was among the first exponents of Tamil, was supposed to have been born in a "Kumbha"—a kind of vessel—hence the name "Kumbamuni") and said: "So long as Tamil lives, poets will venerate you and pay obeisance to you. You will ever shine as an immortal."
