The Clue Towards The Origin Of Civilization

The issue of the identification of Sumerian language as Archaic Tamil is the clue we have towards unraveling the many corners of not only the Prehistory of India but also the origins of civilization and its spread from East to the West or from the middle both ways.

In order to have a scientific understanding of this matter, I think we have to establish the linguistic identity Sumerian has with Tamil and as preliminary to showing how this Sumerian language is also related to other world languages like Austrolesian, African, Ancient Greek, Ancient Hebrew and so forth.

Unfortunately the transliteration scheme currently employed by the Sumerian scholars and which has been going on without any reference to the Tamil languages seems to have many flaws that need to be corrected by systematic studies , a task in which both the Sumeriologists and Tamil scholars have to come together.

The Word 'Upanishad'

The word 'Upanishad' may itself be Sumero-Tamil where 'upa' is Tamil 'uppar. umpar" 'ni' the same as Sumerian 'ni" and ancient Tamil locative-genitive case marker' -in' and 'sad' a variant of ancient 'saaRRu" also available in Sumerian.

What it means is : declarations coming from the heavens i.e. mystical disclosures. a meaning that fits well the essence of the Upanishads.

The Tamil Evolutionary Linguistics

Evolutionary Linguistics as I have developed is an Hermeneutic Science (HS) and which is NOT anything like the statistically motivated positive science. For that reason it is NOT speculative - it is TRUTH oriented and this is how the Utti Science of Ancient India like the Linguistics of Tolkaappiyam was developed. 

As said by Tolkaappiyar it is 'Mey NeRittu' : directed towards seeking TRUTHS. The battles between HS and the so-called hard sciences is going on even in the West, only in India the best sciences developed were basically HS.

Now unlike the Constructive Linguistics of protoforms sound shifts and so forth, Linguistics as HS is NOT speculative at all but seeks to UNDERSTAND and be CLEAR by seeking out TRUTHS in an OBJECTIVE manner. There must NOT be vain speculations, fanciful inventions and so forth.

The TRUTHS are there already in situ and what we have to do is to bring out these TRUTHS – facts, that remain concealed , articulate them and with that CLARIFY the understanding so that it is free of doubts and uncertainties ( aiyamun tiribum aRRa maaN aRivu)

Let me illustrate the point by discussing an example I have already given earlier.

’>>>>>

3. Sumerian: tur-ra-mu-de e-dub-ba-a-a am
( Since my very youth, I belonged to edubba)

The Tamil reconstruction would be :

Ta. tur-ra mutee il tubbaiya aa aam
( Since my very youth I attended the tablet house(school))

துர்-அ முதே இல் துப்பைய ஆ ஆம்

We can also consider another such a sentence:

77. Sumerian:ses-gal a-a na-nam nin-gal ama na-nam
(The elder brother is indeed a father, the elder sister is indeed a mother!)

Tamil: cisukaL aiya nanam ningaL ammaa nanam

சிசுகள் அய்யா நனம் நின்கள் அம்மா நனம்

>>>>

You can see these sentences are almost immediately RECOGNIZABLE for a Tamil scholar as Tamil but certainly an Archaic Form of it and hence an Archaic Tamil. It is almost the same process at work when I read the Cagkam Tamil ‘ kaamam ceppaatu kaNdatu mozimoo!” .

There is recognizability of the language as Tamil but certainly an older form of it.
