Whatever would we have done without the Mughals!

Ahem! These early references to asafoetida/ ಇಂಗು/ಹಿಂಗು iṅgu/ hiṅgu in kannaDa literature surely don’t matter. They must all be post-Mughal interpolations! But humour me anyway please

They are ever so clever- getting straight to the point eg! They sure know what Sringara rasa and ಮೋಹನತರಂಗಿಣಿ mōhanataraṅgiṇi are all about at the end of the day 😂

Multiple mentions of #asafoetida asafoetida rāmaṭhaṁ रामठं in #pAkadarpaNam of #naLa, the oldest available culinary text from India based on #Ayurveda

மன்னவன் தொண்டையர் கோன் வணங்கும் நீள் முடி மாலை வயிரமேகன்
தன் வலி தன் புகழ் சூழ்ந்த கச்சி அட்டபுயகரத்து ஆதி தன்னை

Name #Dravidian for lang family was coined by Robert Caldwell who discussed this at length in “A Comparative Grammar of the Dravidian or South-Indian Family of Languages”1856

He gives his rationale-justification, also cleverly sowing seeds for today’s “Dravidian movement”

1/15
He sort of acknowledges Francis Whyte Ellis & Stevenson for recognising that today’s “#Dravidian” languages had much common between them, distinct from samskRta.
Ellis noted this in his intro to Alexander D Campbell’ book, “Grammar of the Teloogoo Language” (1816)

2/15
But the idea of putting tamiZ at the centre of this language, giving it a disproportionately large importance wasn’t just Caldwell’s. He mentions the use of “tamulic” and “tamulian” for this family by European writers prior to him.

Desire (kāma) to get a thing is sorrow. The pleasure when I get it & feel it my own is attachment (mōha). When attachment grows & I feel “Hey! No one’s equal to me”- that‘s conceit (mada). To want all gain only for myself is greed (lōbha)..

kannaDiga-
1-one who’s from kannaDa nADu/pradESa
2-one who has kannaDa as mother tongue

The definitions are “either/or”, not “and”.

So every tuLuva, koDava, konkaNi (in karNATaka) & sankEti (I am one) is a kannaDiga. There is no mutual conflict here. There needn’t/shouldn’t be
I understand everyone has different perspectives. But what’s the need to deny one part of our identity to validate another? And this seems to increasingly apparent only in recent times.

That kannaDa has been a vital part of tuLu, koDava and konkaNi regions is a historic fact.
One can not argue against history just because one disagrees with it or because one is dissatisfied with the present and/or that one wants to change the future.
