<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->The ancient Tamil classic, Cilappadikaram, eulogizes its benighted heroine, Kannaki, who in her rage at a king's injustice, tore off her left breast and burned the city of Madurai to the ground before rising to the sky as a goddess.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

I always thought it was her anklet that she threw, and the king died the same instant saying "I am not a king, I am a thief." As I have not read the Silappadhigaram, I cannot assert authoritatively. Can someone enlighten me if it was an anklet or a left-breast.
