| | The Dravidian Race is the name sometimes still given to the peoples of southern and central India and northern Sri Lanka who speak Dravidian languages, the best known of which are Telugu(&;) and Tamil. | | | The Dravidians and South Indians have been in some respects the best preservers of ancient Vedic culture and traditions, especially when the north of India was dominated by Buddhism and later was affected by Islam. | | | The term arose from assumptions by nineteenth century Western scholars that Dravidian speakers were earlier inhabitants of India than the speakers of the Indo-Aryan languages in the north of the country. |

| | Aryan race - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | This styling of an "Aryan invasion" by British colonial fantasies of racial supremacy lies at the origin of the fact that all discussion of historical Indo-Aryan migrations or Aryan and Dravidian "races" remains highly controversial in India to this day, and does continue to affect political and religious debate. | | | Some Dravidians, and supporters of the Dalit movement, most commonly Tamils, claim that the worship of Shiva is a distinct Dravidian religion, to be distinguished from Brahminical "Aryan" Hinduism. | | | The "Aryan race" is a concept in European culture that was influential in the period of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. |

| | Some Dravidians, most commonly Tamils, claim that the worship of Shiva is a distinct Dravidian religion, to be distinguished from Brahminical "Aryan" Hinduism. | | | The idea of the "Aryan race", however, as a strictly ethnic intepretation of the word that extended to Europeans, arose when linguists identified the Avestan and Sanskrit language as the oldest known relatives of all the major European languages, including Latin, Greek, the Germanic, Celtic and Slavic languages. | | | During the 19th century, it was commonly believed that the Aryan race originated in the southwestern steppes of present-day Russia, what was formerly a part of Persia, and including the Caucasus Mountains. |

| | 1.5. SOME RED HERRINGS |
| | The identification of Aryan with the Indo-Aryan speech community of the northern subcontinent and Sri Lanka, hence the conception of Aryan as the opposite of Dravidian, is also extraneous to the Hindu tradition. | | | By asserting the native origins of the Aryans, and by attributing all the finer aspects of Indian culture to their supposed genius, the rich cultural legacy of the non-Aryan Indian races is effectively denied. | | | I believe they are mistaken, but at any rate, their views are strictly incompatible with the political programme of Aryans locking native Dravidians into the racist caste system, which Yoginder Sikand imputes to them. |

| | In the Vedas, the most ancient Hindu scriptures, the term describes a race of light-skinned people from Central Asia who conquered and subjugated the darker-skinned (or Dravidian) peoples of the Indian subcontinent. | | | In Germany the idea of an Aryan or "master" race found resonance with rabid nationalism, the idea of the German superman distilled from the philosophy of friedrich Nietzsche, and Wagner's operatic celebrations of Nordic sagas and Teutonic mythology. | | | In Germany, this blend of ancient myths and nineteenth-century scientific theories began to evolve into a belief that the Germans were the purest manifestation of the inherently superior Aryan race, whose destiny was to rule the world. |

| | The 'hasty generalisations and presumptuous inferences' in the textbooks of the comparative philologists of the 18th and 19th centuries have led to the elaborate division of the civilised humanity into Aryan, Dravidian and Semitic races and established an 'incongruous relation between language and race'. | | | For Rajaram, the Harappans are Aryan and the language is Sanskrit; For Mathivanan, the Harappans are Dravidian and the language is Tamil. | | | The Iron Age which originated in South India was Dravidian and, in its last phase, coincided with the Sangam Age, characterised by literary activity, the use of currency and foreign trading contacts. |
