Early Tamil Cultural Influences
in South East Asia
S.J.Gunasegaram

(from Selected Writings published 1985)

To read the Tamil script you will require the Mylai font which may be downloaded here

References made in the early Sangam Literature of the Tamils, foreign notices found in the writings of the Greeks and Romans, and Tamil loan words found in Hebrew and Greek along with other evidence brought to light by excavations in Ur of the Chaldees and Palestine, give us some idea of the early trade and cultural contacts of the Dravidians, (and in particular of the Tamils) with ancient Egypt, Babylon, Greece, Rome and Arabia.
