My dear Muchie,
When I speak to NALEEN, SHAKTI replies.
I know you would come with this, because I know very well your cheap tricks. :-)
You are so mean that you even use the ability to make one statement and change it within few minutes. I know this is not the first time you did it. These are the games of children, Muchie.
When I started writing my reply, the post was addressed to Shakti. Any sensible person realizes there is no need addressing a person no more here.
BTW, Muchie, the guy called Naleen was NEVER BANNED, unlike the Muchalinda without hyphen. As far as I know, Naleen imposed a self ban for a reason. Dying in a fast is not the same as committing suicide.

Muchie,
Can a guy like you, who is forever confused with the identities of Sinhalese and Tamils, ever understand any issue regarding identities my dear?
You might reconsider doing the work given by your Christian boss, instead exposing your stupidity in this forum... |

Muchie,
For three reasons, I stop this discussion with this post.
1. I don?t think I should take the advantage of your stupidity, here making fun of you. I should not be that unkind.
2. Lula might be cursing me because I deprive him the opportunity of buffalo bashing.
3. Unlike you I do an important job, and I do not have much time to spend on my hobbies, though no matter how much I like buffalo bashing. :-) |

Just a General Question...
Can sweeping the Sirikotha be regarded as an 'important job'
Hope someone other than the person himself will clarify.. |

You should know. After all that was what your father has been doing for all those days. :-) |

LULA argues that argues that the modern day SL Tamils have once lived as Sinhalas before adopting a Tamil Identity.
MURU argues that modern day Tamils are descended from Nagas of Naga Dweepa.
And according to our Long Lost TIGRESS19, Sinhalas are converts of LOW CASTE TAMILS. Machan Muchalinda all of the above are true to a certain extent. Where is the contradiction? About the Nagas of Jaffna I definitely hold the view that they got Tamilised (as well as the Sinhala/Ila people who lived in jaffa at the time), this is also the view of Indrapala. There is no archaelogical evidence whatsoever showing a mass displacement of people from the jaffna pennisula or indeed a mass migration of people to it from the mesolithic/Iron age onwards. Just a language change. |

Lula,
I hate to do this to poor Muchie. I am so sorry for him. With this single post I am going to nullify so many of his arguments. Poor guy had wasted so much of time for his 'cut and paste' research and I am going to prove he is wrong. (No wonder why this guy hates me so much!)
You see an ancient Sinhala Brahmi Alphabet in the following link:
Http://www.nexcorpsl.com/sinhala/brahmiAlphabet.jpg
You also see an ancient Tamil Alphabet in the following link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamil_language
(Try clicking the image captioned 'History of Tamil script' to get a larger view. For some reason I cannot submit the direct link to the forum.)
NOW, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE A PARANAVITHANA TO SEE THE OBVIOUS SIMILARITIES BETWEEN THE TWO SCRIPTS. IT IS THE SAME.
Conclusion: There was a period both so called 'Sinhalese' and so called 'Tamils' in this country used the SAME SCRIPT - quite possible the same language or at least two dialects of the same language. As you can see this was VERY DIFFERENT either from present day Tamil or present day Sinhala.
Lula,
Congrats, man!! You have been correct from the day one. I knew you were correct, but I did not have proof. Now I have proof.

This explains a lot, great job.
Even Kula has done a lot of research on this subject and has made some discoveries.
He believes that this is because of possibly two reasons:
1.The pre-dominant Tamil or Dravidian influence
OR
2. more biasedly, whether the original language/scripts used by the Sinhalas were Tamil.
Thanks Shakti for that important information. |

Hey Lula
Hope you have received your much awaited delivery with lots of FUN. Oh dear, dear Lula,How can I going to comfort you putting up with this chap? Back to squire one again. After all these discussions and analysis this guy is starting from the beginning once again. You should have some tolerance or you may end up breaking your PC. I can comment on para after para but I will leave it you.
I cannot understand why you gave this much of prominence to 1 CAD since nothing significant has happened during that century pertaining to the issue we discuss. However, it is true that there were 8 Tamil Invaders captured the power of Anuradhapura Kingdom between the said period out of 31 Kings (according to my calculations). However, during the whole Anuradhapura period, which is from ca. 5 CBC to ca. 11 CAD, there were only a maximum of 20 invading Tamil Rulers out of some 130 plus Kings. YOU MAY ALSO KNOW THAT SRI LANKA WAS ALSO RULED BY SOME 9 ENGLISH KINGS AND SOME 30 BRITISH GOVERNORS DURING 1815 TO 1948, IF YOU FIND THAT EXCITING!! (FUN).
Ladies and Gentlemen:
1#Invaders took to the throne 8/31 and 20/130 in A'pura.
2#Sinhala Tamil honeymoon started with Dutagamunu and Ellalan. This endless love affair came to a near end when the couple decided to live separately since 11CAD.
3# from 1815 to 1948 some 30 British Governors ruled SL. How many British were here? In hundreds or thousands. Is he contradicting himself? Rulers dont necessarily reflect the ethnicity.
If we stick to one of his hypothesis we should have a clear answer for the Tamils in the NE.
Re Invaders took to the throne 8/31 and 20/130 in A'pura.This has happened not in successions but happened periodically and been chased away. By all these invasions some would have left behind in the Island and likely to speak the language of the land. (Robert Knox was very fluent in Sinhala). This may be the case for NC province and South.
If we conveniently try to extrapolate this to the North we will have trouble with real historians provided we have a history with credible evidence like Eg Mr Weravansa (11CAD) the great Emperor of SL brought 100000 people from Tamil nadu in 11CAD and took his trusted Sinhala community in North and East for invasion of Indonesia and Thailand to expand his territory.
I cannot make it simple than this.
BTW Lula I never expected a substandard post from my old friend. For his calibre last one so poor. Hit as you like. |
