http://www.squidoo.com/workshop/history-of-tamil-nadu The early history of Tamil Nadu dates back about 6000 years. The Tamils belong to the Dravidian race and were part of the early Indus Valley settlers. Later with the Aryan invasion, the Dravidians were forced to remain back into the deep-south, where they finally settled. The present day states of Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh constitute the Dravidian culture. http://www.squidoo.com/workshop/history-of-tamil-nadu See this Amp at http://amplify.com/u/a16wt0
