Tribal Cultural Heritage in India
Showcasing new initiatives in education
“The existence of a unique, preAryan [sic] populace with a distinct cultural heritage and evolved literary traits has been fortified by archaeological evidence collected from the discovery of Harappa and Mohenjo-daro in the early 1920s, and further substantiated by the ongoing Keezhadi excavations in Tamil Nadu. With modern day advancements in handling fragile biodegradable material from excavation sites and also high-throughput genomic sequencing, we now understand how the Indian subcontinent was populated through waves of migration.” – Manuraj Shunmugasundaram in “The Dravidian movement and Aryan illusions” (The Hindu, 23 July 2022)
