A short history of the Tamil language
Tamil belongs to the South Dravidian branch of the Dravidian family of languages, along with others such as Malayalam, Kota, Toda, Kodagu, Kannada and Tulu. It is one of the oldest surviving classical languages in the world, and has the oldest literature of all the Dravidian languages.
Like other Dravidian languages, Tamil is descended from Proto-Dravidian, and has no roots in Sanskrit (unlike most of India’s other established literary languages). The influence of Sanskrit on Tamil was not evident until the period of the Pallava dynasty (2nd-9th century BCE).
Tamil literature goes back at least 2000 years; the earliest records which have been found date back to around the 5th century BCE. The history of the language is usually grouped into three phases:
- Old Tamil (5th century BCE – 8th century AD).
- Middle (or Medieval) Tamil (8th to 17th century).
- Modern Tamil (17th century to the present).
