Why Mayans are Tamils ..

Recently I read this interesting article about Mayans and their ancestral relationship with Tamils written by Gene D. Matlock .

Having reached US recently and living very close to lot of Mexicans here, I am fascinated to post this article for everyone.

Ancient Tamilnadu Map

MAP OF INDIA IN 30,000 B.C.
The last surviving LEMURS exist on Madagascar. This is why the ancient land tying India and Australia together, that sank incrementally over time, is referred to as LEMURIA. Myriads of ancient writings from the South Seas, and the ancient Tamil writings on palm tree bark still exist protected underground in the Vatican archives, having been pillaged from various cultures and transported to Rome by order of various popes.
The Tamil bark writings in Southern India tell of the gigantic Southern part of India which used to connect to Australia cataclysmically sinking incrementally over a long period of time. This was ancient Lemuria.

Kumari kandam...One of the subjects of great interest to me is the history of the Origin of Tamils. A quest to know where I came from? 'Who am I?'My search led me to “kumari nadu” or “kumari kandam” (also called Lemuria and Gondwanaland) believed to be the original cradle of the Tamils (or Dravidians in general) by many scholars.. and according to ancient litrature, now lying submerged in the Indian Ocean due to repeated tsunamis (kadalkol)....an artists imagination of the landmass!Some of the inputs about this land from ancient works are fascinating:The kumari nadu mainly consisted of the Pandyan Kingdom. Two wild rivers - "Kumari aaru and Prahuli aaru" flowed through the land. The distance between the two rivers was 700 kavatham (about 1000 miles). And the land was divided into Thengu nadu, Madurai nadu, Munpalai nadu, Pinpalai nadu, Kunra nadu, Kunakkarai nadu, and Kurumparai nadu, and each containing seven smaller Nadus, hence 49 in all.

Ruby was mined from the mountain Mani Malai and gold from Meru malai. The kumari mountain range had forty-eight high peaks.Something even more amazing I read was that the precious stones were mined by Chinese laborers! Iam still searching for more proof of this information.

According to Tamil litrature,the first deluge submerged Ten madurai situated by the kanni river, the seat of the first Tamil sangam and the Pandyan capital was shifted to Kabaadapuram. The Pandyan capital of kabaadapuram finds mention in the Ramayana and Chanakya's Arthasastra.

A second deluge submerged Kabaadapuram , the seat of the second Tamil sangam .Roman writer Pliny, in the second century B.C., refers to the transfer of the capital from Korkai to Madurai. The sea swallowed approximately 1,000 miles of the Pandyan territory known as "Yanainadu".

Despite so much being written about this sunken landmass, it’s a big disappointment that our Indian government has done no full fledged marine scientific research . We still depend on inputs from ancient Tamil, Roman and other scriptures to get an idea about this famed land. The Tsunami of last year is a cruel reminder that should catch the attention of marine archeologists , historians and scholars to our long lost past...I hope someday I will get a better answer to the question i put as the title today....

Tamil Poem in Purananuru, circa 500 B.C

Here is the Translation :

"To us all towns are one, all men our kin.Life's good comes not from others' gift, nor illMan's pains and pains' relief are from within. Death's no new thing; nor do our bosoms thrillWhen Joyous life seems like a luscious draught. When grieved, we patient suffer; for, we deemThis much - praised life of ours a fragile raft Borne down the waters of some mountain streamThat o'er huge boulders roaring seeks the plain Tho' storms with lightnings' flash from darken'd skiesDescend, the raft goes on as fates ordain. Thus have we seen in visions of the wise ! -We marvel not at greatness of the great;Still less despise we men of low estate."

Tamil Poem :

யாதும் ஊரே ; யாவரும் கேளிர் ;தீதும் நன்றும் பிறர்தர வாரா ;நோதலும் தணிதலும் அவற்றோ ரன்ன ;சாதலும் புதுவது அன்றே ; வாழ்தல்இனிதுஎன மகிழ்ந்தன்றும் இலமே; முனிவின்,இன்னா தென்றலும் இலமே; ‘மின்னொடுவானம் தண்துளி தலைஇ, ஆனாதுகல்பொருது இரங்கும் மல்லற் பேர்யாற்றுநீர்வழிப் படூஉம் புணைபோல, ஆருயிர்முறைவழிப் படூஉம்’ என்பது திறவோர்காட்சியின் தெளிந்தனம் ஆகலின், மாட்சியின்பெரியோரை வியத்தலும் இலமே;சிறியோரை இகழ்தல் அதனினும் இலமே.
