Dravidians Culture and Aryans Settlement in TamilNadu-Analysis

Dr. T. Balasubramanian

Abstract :

The main objective of the study is to ought out the Dravidians Culture and Aryans Settlement in TamilNadu. The Dravidians form the largest racial group of the population. The Aryans migrated to Tamilakam in later times. These racial groups contributed to the evolution of a composite culture, dominated by Dravidian elements. Historians differ in their views on the original home of the Dravidians. The exponents of what is called Immigration Theory suggest that the Dravidians came from outside India. They claim that the Dravidians belonged to the Negrito, the Mongol or the Scythian races and they migrated to India before they moved south-ward. Central Asia, Persia, Tibet, Mesopotamia and the Mediterranean region are suggested as the early home of the people. The existence of common physical features between the Dravidians of India and the people of these respective areas and the prevalence of common words between languages are cited as evidences to such immigration to India.
