Seven Types Of Tamil Marriages

The difference between the present custom of demanding money from the Bride was not in vogue.

In Vedic times also the Dowry was to be paid by the Bridegroom and not by the bride.

In Tamil Culture., the Parisam, Dowry, may be movable or immovable assets and the Brides parents determine this.

6.Eru Thazhuvudahal,Fighting against a Bull , overpowering it and getting married.

7.Madaleruthal.

The man who is unable to get married his loved one, smears ashes over his body,wears flowers not used generally, like 'Erukku'-Calotropis gigantea or Calotropis makes a Horse out of Palm leaves , gets onto a horse and rides slowly through the city. crying aloud his Love's name.

This was regarded as the worst type of Marriage.

This can was done only when the love was mutual, one-sided affairs do not lead to this.

Million Year Old Tamil Quotes Vedas, They Quote Tamil

The archaeological finds from Attirappakkam northeast of Chennai evidences the existence of Tamils about a million years ago!

"The prehistoric period during which Lower Paleolithic settlements existed in the Tamil Nadu region has been estimated to span the period from about 1,510,000 BCE[1] until around 3000 BCE.[2] For most part of the lower Paleolithic stage, humans lived close to river valleys with sparse forest cover or in grassland environments...If the Sangam period , Muthal Sangam, at 500 BC is true, how is it that the Purana, which are earlier by at least by 4000 years, quote Tamils, Tamil Kings?

Anachronism?

As I pointed out in my earlier post, Sanskrit and The Vedas quote Tamil.

So the History of India may need revision in dating taking into account the Tamil and History together and not studying them in isolation.

The problem is compounded by the fact the references to Tamil Poets,Sanskrit Poets,Rishis,even Gods' names do not seem to be Real.
