@@zachbercu3230 Of course there is Tamil influence in Indonesia, and some believe that the influence of Tamil culture is more dominant. One of the arguments is because there is a story about the Tamil version of the Rama-Shinta story matched with Indonesian version. Even in the earliest Indian epic, the Ramayana, Sugriva, the head of Rama's army, is recorded as sending his men to Yawadvipa, the island of Java, to look for Sita. ha ha ha... Also according to the ancient Tamil manuscript Manimekalai, Java had a kingdom with a capital called Nagapuram. After all, South Indian culture spread widely since the Pallava dynasty from South India in the 4th century. But there are also many records that show that merchants from Gujarat came to Indonesia to trade and spread Islam here, so that in the end our nation experienced mass apostasy for the third time by Indians.

Foreigners from the north are believed to have migrated to India and settled in the Indus Valley and Ganges Plain from 1800-1500 BCE. The ancient Aryans were a group of people who were originally from central Asia. Three thousand years ago, these Aryans settled in India, where they established the language of Vedic Sanskrit, founded the Vedic religion, and established a caste system of hierarchical classes.

[@stefano1405]

@@vineshv The origins of Vedic culture are often misrepresented. Vedic culture clearly demonstrates continuity with the Harappan civilization. However, theories like the Aryan Migration Hypothesis keep evolving to fit new findings. Initially, the Aryan Invasion Theory suggested invaders brought Vedic culture to India. Later, the Migration Theory proposed movements between 1500 BCE and 1200 BCE, aligning this with the composition of the Rigveda. Recent discoveries, like the Sinauli chariots (2300-1800 BCE), challenge this timeline. These chariots are the oldest copper-reinforced chariots in the world, and the accompanying DNA evidence shows no steppe ancestry, indicating indigenous origins. Additionally, Harappan trade with Mesopotamia supports cultural continuity. It’s time to acknowledge India’s rich, indigenous cultural heritage rather than revising narratives to fit outdated biases.

What you are discussing here is well explained in Quran. When Moses went to Mount for forty days worship , some of his followers made a cow idol and started worshipping it. When Moses came he was highly annoyed with his brother Haroon and his followers. As a punishment these people were ordered to kill themselves. Allah also ordered them to sacrifice a red cow. This is the period what researchers are discussing before 2000 bc. Earlier these Jews have also asked Moses to make idols for them for worshipping. These were Jews who may have fled from Moses to avoid punishment but Quran says this happened in Syria and Palestine areas. Some Jews of same period are also settled in Iran. Barring religious perspective this information can be useful for researchers in this regard. You can see the translation of surah Al Baqra of Quran. Al Baqra means cow.

After all, isn't that what the Vedas teach anyhow -- interconnectedness. So stop arguing for God's sake. If the Vedas are so holy, one should put them into practice instead of arguing over dead man's bones.

[@jayanjayanthan5316]

Certain things are unanswered. The popular theory is that the Aryans migrated from Central Asia and the Aryan Culture is a continuation of the cultures, serially, Yamnaya - Sintashta - Andronovo - Oxus Civilizations, from there one branch migrated to present Iran (Proto Iranians) and other branch migrated to India (Indo Aryans). There are Archaeological evidence regarding the earlier cultures, like Kurgan burial sites in Central Asia and Gonur Depe archaeological site in BMAC (where vessels believed to be used for the preparation of Soma of Rigveda and Avesta were excavated). Why no such archaeological evidence regarding the migration of Aryans in India? Ghaggar-Hakra river system or Ancient Saraswati believed to be dried up in later Harappan period i.e. 2500 BC -2000 BC (which caused the migration of Harappans towards south) and Aryans arrived after, around 1500 BC. Then why Saraswati is described as a mighty riven in Rigveda? Why there is no mention of their trail or description of their ancestor’s land (of Aryans) in Rigveda (which is the only evidence about Aryans)?

[@vipassana123]

Well there is evidence via archeology regarding things like pottery and cremation. Also the saraswati was still running on its edges by the time the aryans came, it’s a common misconception that it was totally dry by then.

[@jayanjayanthan5316]

@@vipassana123 The after death rituals are one of the prominent characteristic of any ancient civilizations. Be it Egyptian, or Chinese or Nannangadis burial urns during the bronze age found in Kerala. The Kurgan burial sites of Sintashta culture and the burial sites found in Oxus area have unique features. People are buried with weapons, horses and some with chariots. If the Rig Vedic people are migrated form Steppes region, why did they change the burying habit to cremation in a short period? In Rigveda River Saraswati is described as a mighty river, river with strong waves, mother of floods etc. If it is a dried up river, how is it possible?

@@jayanjayanthan5316you’re misinformed about a lot of stuff. The bmac culture had cremation and soma and this is where the steppe people picked it up from. The Sarasvati river was NOT dried up when the aryans came, it was still flowing at the edges . The Aryans migration starts around 2000 bce, not 1500 bce. There are several commonalities in archeology like pottery. You’re just incorrect on multiple fronts.

What is the archeological evidence of cremation. Saraswati in rigveda is eulogized as a mighty river with strong waves . Not suiting to a river with weakened flow.

Mention of something in the Rigveda isn't evidence. There is a lot of exaggeration in the Vedas, so we can't really give much credence to the fact that they called it a mighty river. In any case, what was the Saraswati river is an unanswered question, but the fact that we don't have that answer can't be taken as evidence that the migration didn't happen.

South Asian Hunter-Gatherer did not speak Dravidian languages. In all likelihood, Dravidian languages came in with Zagrosian farmers from Elam region of present day Iran. Hence, Elamites-Dravidian family of languages is hypothesised. A recent paper even suggests that Brahui, spoken in Baluchistan, is a direct descendant of Elamite, though it is counted as a Dravidian language. Most Hunter-Gatherer languages have gone extinct and only Nihali and Vedda are known today. It is always hunter-gatherers who adopt the language of the settled population. A good example is Nagamese - the lingua franca of tribes of Nagaland, who speak mutually unintelligible languages. Anyone who hears it will not be able to tell it apart from Assamese. Same is the case all over the world.

You defeated those 1000 Aryan Kings on the banks of River Ganges. This again proclaims the regions of aryan kingdom. Note the work "bank of river ganga". All these geographical indications do serve as proof for this genetic study. Hope it helped.

@@whoops0 Your knowledge in this field is commendable, atleast to an individual like me, mostly ignorant to the history of the subcontinent south of the Vindhyas. Would you consider recommending books on the Cheras, Pandyans, Chalukyas, Rashtrakutas, Wodiyars, Pallavas, maybe the slightly less advanced ones. Being from the north of India, I have always felt a sense of fascination for Tamil culture and been intrigued by stories which encapsulate its glorious past, ever since my visit to the charming city of Madurai. The phonetic beauty of the language (I really wish I could learn it some day), the fragrant cuisine, the marvels of the temple architecture and of course, the splendid sonic experience of the echoing nadhaswaram in the temples, everything is vividly engraved in my memory.

[@whoops0]

@@jahnvisingh8015 thank you so much. But sadly iam not aware of a 1 particular book that talks about these kingdoms that u have mentioned.. Instead, I could recommend u 1 of the oldest literature in tamil. It is called Silapathigaram. Silapathigaram means the story of an anklet. This book is atleast 1900 to 2000 years old. It contains of a story of a couple who leaves chola kingdom, they try to settle on pandyas kingdom(where the husband dies), and then later the wife moves to chera kingdom. So this book, tells the story of environmental situations of ancient tamilagam. It is to be noted that this book was written by Chera prince who left his royalty and embraced Buddhism. However, this book is not in favour of any religion or kingdom, neither it is against them as all religions of ancient tamilagam(Aaseevagam, Samanam(jainism), boutham(budhism), vydheegam(veda religion Or vainavism) and shaivism) are praised. So this book will give you the idea how a layperson's life was in ancient tamilagam. Book: THE CILAPPATIKARAM OF ILANKO ATIKAL, An Epic of South India, translated, with an introduction and a postscript by R. Paarthasarathy. This book is also available in Hindi. Puranaanooru = Puram(outside) + naanooru(400) Aganaanooru = Agam(Inside) + Naanooru(400) These 2 books have 400 poems each. Puranaanooru talks about a life-outside of the person's body. It includes poems of Kings and kingdoms, nature, wars, and general people's life. Aganaanooru is talks about the life-inside of a person's body, which includes love life, person's relationship, person's feeling of other things around him. If you wanna learn about tamil people's culture, then these books are good. BOOK; 1. THE FOUR HUNDERED SONGS OF WAR AND WISDOM, an anthology of poems by classical tamil, the puranaanooru. Translated and edited by George. L. Hart and Hank Heifetz. I'm sorry, I couldn't get aganaanooru. Thirdly, the most famous tamil literature, Thirukural, is composed by thiruvalluvar. It is his statue on the sea, you'll see when you google search kanyakumari. This book contains of 1330 statements, with each statement having 7 words(4 in the first line, 3 in the second line). Has 133 chapters with each chapter having 10 kurals/statements hence the 1330. This book is divided into 3 parts: Aram (virtue) 38 chapters, Porul (wealth) 70 chapters, inbam/kaaman (love) 25 chapters.... All these parts are beautiful to read. They are very simple for a layman to understand. You also get books separately for each part. So this book is about ethical philosophy. If you wanna read the whole thirukkural, I'd suggest you this book. PEARLS OF WISDOM FROM CLASSIC TAMIL SERIES THIRUKURAL - DR. Anaivaariyar. If you just wanna read the 3rd part, which is awesome id say, try reading THE BOOK OF DESIRE by meena kandaswamy. And there are hell lot of works in tamil literature. Whatever I gave you is less than 5%. And there are still hell lot of manuscripts which are not translated yet. But i think whatever I gave you is enough to get u started. And whatever I gave you are atleast 1900-2000 years old. So they are like legit solid tamil contexts. But i dont I'm the right person to recommend you books about rashtrakutas and chalukyas Or the wodeyars. I cannot read or understand old kannada and sanskrit. Also there is a small problem here. For example, rashtrakutas reigned for 220 years. So it is difficult for me to get books that were written during this short period of time. Similarly with chalukyas who ruled 200 and 200 years. Their history if complicated as kept having territory conflicts with the cholas. Wodeyars are a totally new kingdom which sprouted at the beginning of 15th century. So i couldn't get a kannada-only-culture. It was easy for me to tamil literature because Chola, pandya and chera dynasties ended only in 13th century AD, 14th century AD and 12th century AD respectively. None of these kingdoms starting period could be found as their origin goes back very past in history that they are considered as legends. For example, pandyan and cheras are even found in Mahabharata. Meenakshi was a pandyan princess this was mentioned in Mahabharata. Because cheras chola pandyas ruled consistently for so long, I was able to handpick the literature easily that are at least 2000 years old. So please ask a kannada scholar or student regarding kannada/telugu literature. Regarding pallavas, you don't have to worry about them. Because pallavas are branch of cholas. This is found in Silapathigaram. When a chola prince married a Naga princess in srilanka, the pallava dynasty was found. Pallavas braced sanskrit unlike chera chola and pandyas who patronized tamil. Because they embraced sanskrit hence their name "Pallava" Which literally means "branch". Their stories are mostly found in temple inscriptions.

This proves that Out of Africa theory is wrong and Ancient Tamils lived in TAMIL NADU 3,85,000 years ago. But on those days language Tamil might NOT have evolved.

Before , in ancient time we don't have papers and books nor photography. we don't have scripts, alphabets or letters. TAMIL language is the First, oldest, finest, sweetest and beautiful language and the first classical language in the world with the richest culture and highest civilisation and wonderful literature. God creates people of same colour the brunette colour first then the black, red , white and the yellow coloured skin people. The first world was TAMIL ruled by Paradan Emperumal (Paradan emperor, Baradan, Barad, Barat today india is Barath from the Parada Nadu.

‘native’ and ‘india’ are funny terms that you use that probably wont be recognised at all by people you are referring to. The initial ancestor DNA component in South Indians is greater, yes, but they do have other traces of DNA too, which doesnt make them any more native to the land than the north indians. Native word is generally used in English for people of a land existing before colonisation and resettling of that land by oppressive regimes. As the Dna evidence suggests however, the waves of people coming into the subcontinent werent colonisers looking to oppress but normal people looking to settle and intermarry the earlier civilisations. They are the ancestors of most south indians as well.

Because the language change directly corresponded to a genetic change and migration into the area. The central Asian indo Iranianian tribal nomads migrated into India from 1900 - 1200 bce genetically per Vageeshs paper in 2019 (paper reviewed and pretty much cited by everyone). The Rigveda is dated to the same time frame 1900 - 1200 bce and clearly describes a nomadic tribal migration and is in an IE language with some borrowing from Dravidian words. So we have a language change and genetic change in the same time frame, so that’s why people associate it.
