As the Dove was the natural food for the Falcon, it demanded that it be given its food.
To keep up his word and driven by compassion Sibi cut a portion of thigh equivalent to the weight of the Dove.
The scale tilted towards the Dove.
King Sibi continued to cut away portions of his body, to match the weight of the Dove.
As it was not possible, he sat on the scale himself.
But, as I have been maintaining my posts, there is this obsession to follow the History(?) of Europe through European sources, when these sources quote Asian/Indian resources for their first migration !
The earliest Epic of Mankind, The Ramayana gives a clear description of the type of Species.
Valimki states that when Rama decided to attack Ravana He gave a call through Sugreeva.
The Vanaras came from all the places from Madhya Pradesh,South India, and from the place 'where the Sun always shines or always sets"
The last one is Polar regions.
