Lankan Tamils to break coconuts for Hillary

[HeinzG]

are you ashamed to admit your Bangla history ? I have debunked your racist Sinhala distorted history on numerous occasions (refer Mahavamsa ) There's no need for Tamils to invade as they were the natives unlike thugs banished from their homeland in Vanga - Bangla
ABOUT 10,000 YEARS AGO INDIA & SRI LANKA WERE CONNECTED BY LAND

Do you believe Mahanwansa? First tell me that.

How can you distinguish the culture of 10,000 year old people as Tamils? Any source to back your claim up?

You didn't answer my question even in the last time. Where are the Sinhalese in Bangladesh? What happened to their homeland in Bangladesh?

you should start by asking where are Lanka's 'natives' Yakkas , Nagas, Veddas ? What was their original language, culture , religion etc

http://mahavamsa.org/2008/05/princess-vanga-sinhabahu/

Yakka, Naga, Deva and Veddhas had a primitive culture they worshiped rocks and trees and deities. There is no evidence to suggest they are Tamils,

As a source of Sinhala history

The Mahavamsa "The Great Chronicle" otherwise known as "The Great Dynasty" is the single most important work of Lankan origin (written in Pali language). It describes the life and times of the people who forged our nation, from the coming of Vijaya in 543 BCE to the reign of King Mahasena (334 – 361) (6th Century BC to 4th Century AD).

Mahawansha", provides a continuous historical record of over two millennia and can be considered as the world’s longest unbroken historic record.

Tamil history - Kumari Kandam (which you are likely to dismiss as mythological)

You didn't answer my question even in the last time. Where are the Sinhalese in Bangladesh? What happened to their homeland in Bangladesh?

The Sinhalese originally came from northern India, as shown by genetic and linguistic connections. After they arrived in Sri Lanka, some of the Sinhalese apparently intermarried with the indigenous Vedda people, but even if so these lineages are minor. The data also shows that they intermarried with Tamils, certainly to a more substantial degree than with the Vedda. By and large, Sinhalese are related to Bengalis with some elements of Tamil-, Gujarati-, and Punjabi-connected ancestry. They don't seem to have any ancestry from southeast Asia.

Anthropologists generally class the Veddahs as a primitive race group belonging to the Australoid type of man, a dark-complexioned, long-headed, broad-nosed type of man whose members include the Aborigines of Australia, the Munda-speaking tribes of Eastern India and some depressed caste groups of Southern India. Dr. Illeperuma’s phylogenetic analysis of Y-STR haplotypes of local populations seems to support this view as it indicated that the Veddahs were closest to the Indian (Plantation) Tamils many of whom have their origins from these South Indian castes of Australoid origin.

So you take it as granted?

Tamil history - Kumari Kandam (which you are likely to dismiss as mythological)

It is a myth. A confirmed myth.

The Sinhalese originally came from northern India, as shown by genetic and linguistic connections. After they arrived in Sri Lanka, some of the Sinhalese apparently intermarried with the indigenous Vedda people, but even if so these lineages are minor.

There is no genetic or linguistic connection to suggest Sinhalese came from North India.

If Sinhalese came from North India, where have they come from? Where are the place that Sinhalese lived in Bangladesh? What happened to them? Please answer these questions.

Only the Vijaya and his clan came from India. They were not Sinhalese. They intermingled with the exisiting local tribes which had obviously came from South India close to 30000 years ago and had developed independent from the mainland tribes. The combination of the Indian and the local tribes are what constitute to the Sinhalese race.

Lankan envoy is mislead by the popular myths. He's not a academic but a statesman. He has no wide knowledge of the history of the Sinhalese.

If they came from North India they would be wheatish colour instead of the black skinned. They are not North Indians. They are probably some aboriginal race like the Sentinelese from the Andaman Islands who adopted an Indian language and religion.

Sri Lankans are people of all kinds of colors and shape. Even if Swedes were to move to Sri Lanka and stay there for thousands of years, they too would look like Sri Lankans after the lapse of so many years. The human skin adapts to its environment and climatic conditions. It is no coincidence that dark skinned people are all clustered around the equator.

just ignore whatever manlion said- he's just giving opinions of his own https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-serving_bias. His end statement is 'Sri Lanka belongs to the Tamils! period'.

He has no credibility at all.

sorry i atually wanted to reply u and engage in some serious discussion because the Sri Lankan conflict of the majoirty Sinhalas with its minority Tamils was atually a case study topic(along with the Northern Ireland and Ireland conflict) in our Social Studies Secondary school text book.

Studying these 2 conflicts were meant to ingrain young Singaporeans on the importance of maintaining racial and religious harmony as we are a multicultural society ourselves.



But i realised i could'nt be bothered to(reply anymore of your postings, other then this single post now), the moment i came to:

<== source please?

i know u wont be able to provide any anyway, and so- down goes whatever credibility u might have in any remaining part of all your postings in this thread.

We are in many ways similar to Sri Lanka as a society in the ethnic sense, which is why the Sri Lanka case study in our textbooks were heavily emphasized on in order to foster greater udnerstand of other ethnic groups around us, as can be seen in this tuition class photo.

the 3 girls and the 2 leftmost guys are Chinese. The 2 righthand most guys are Malays

 

[ohmrlobalobayeh]

Just face it , the early Tamils were in Sri Lanka only because the British brought them them to work on the cash crop plantations there.

However, as can be seen from the fair wordings in the slides(e.g Tamils were driven out of their homeland- their 'homeland' in Sri Lanka, that is), our textbooks painted a neutral picture of Sri Lanka's situation- siding with neither the Sinhalese nor the Tamils favorably. It is instead, heavily focused on the cause and the consequences- so that Singaporeans can learn to avoid what happened in Sri Lanka

Sad to see Sri Lankan disowning 12% of their population. They are as much citizen of Sri Lanka as anyone else.

This is a stupid joke. I used to have a maid from Sri Lanka when i was a kid and her name was Inoka. I rememebered her complexion was of a different lighter brownish tone than the Tamils in Singapore(who is of the same stock from those in Tamil Nadu and who's complexion were close to charcoal black or very dark brown)

something like this:

Sinhalese women

Tamil women

Local Tamil men and women in Singapore:

Tamil girls in Singapore:

What does a videshi like you know about this region? Enoki was probably a Burgher or a Moor. Sinhalese look like this:

Which is quite similar to Andamanese
