Pona,
Sorry to say but you are such an idiot.

1) 3000 people Died in Black July ( Truth: less than 1000)

Number of people who were murdered don't count. The fact is some racist Sinhalas selected Tamils and killed them for being Tamils.

2) East AND North was Tamil Kingdom (Truth: only the North was)


No point here. Thirukoneswaram in Trinco existed well before Vijay came. There is evidence that this temple was even maintained by some Sinhala Buddhist Kings although destroyed by a Buddhist King Mahasena who built a Dagoba in its place. The shrine was demolished by Portuguese in 1622.

3) Tamils were here before Sinhalese (truth: Sinhalese were here first)


Again, no need to prove that it is wrong. If Tamils who were able to reach Rome and Egypt, will have probably (use your single neuron) reach Sri Lanka well before they reached Rome and Egypt.

Only God knows who is RIGHT and who is telling BS. :))

Genetic and anthropological assessments of Sinhalese People
Most Sinhalese, like most Indian populations show a high degree of genetic similarity that stems from a population that formed on the island roughly 12,000 years ago. A 2003 Stanford study analyzing the origins of various South Asian populations (including 40 Sinhalese and over 90 Tamils from Sri Lanka) found that most of the population of the island and India in general: taken together, these results show that Indian tribal and caste populations derive largely from the same genetic heritage of Pleistocene southern and western Asians and have received limited gene flow from external regions since the Holocene.
These findings are corroborated by numerous other studies including a 2004 Biomedical Central Study: Gene flow from West Eurasia - broadly, the average proportion of mtDNAs from West Eurasia among Indian caste populations is 17% (Table 2). In the western States of India and in Pakistan their share is greater, reaching over 30% in Kashmir and Gujarat, nearly 60% in Indian Punjab, and approximately 50% in Pakistan (Table 11, see Additional file 6, Figure 11, panel A). These frequencies demonstrate a general decline (SAA p - 0.05 Figure 4) towards the south (23%, 11% and 15% in Maharashtra, Kerala and Sri Lanka, respectively) and even more so towards the east of India (13% in Uttar Pradesh and around 7% in West Bengal and Bangladesh). The low (-3%) frequency of the western Eurasian mtDNAs in Rajasthan may be in part a statistical artifact due to the limited sample size of 35 Rajputs.
Overall, the evidence supports the strong possibility that the Sinhalese are largely indigenous to Sri Lanka and adopted the Indo-Aryan largely by cultural diffusion. Ultimately, the genetic evidence also shows substantial genetic drift that corresponds to geography and in the case of Sri Lanka supports the notion that most Sinhalese stem from very early migrants, rather than later invaders: Modern Pakistani, Indian, and Sinhalese donors, examined for combinations of mini- and microsatellite loci, along with a number of Y chromosome and mtDNA markers (24), show varying degrees of diversity, which is expected from their geographic position and ability to receive waves of migrants pulsing from Southwest Asia and West Asia at different times. DYS287 or Y chromosome Alu insertion polymorphism also clearly demonstrate the gradual decline in insert-positive Y chromosomes from Africa to East Asia, reaching a transition point from polymorphic levels (1 to 5%) to private polymorphism in Pakistan.

Peace:

Sri Lanka and adopted the Indo-Aryan largely by cultural diffusion.


If this Aryan thing is 'cultural' only, why do Sinhalese claim they are Aryans?

What about the DNA studies Between Tamils and Sinhalese?

This Stanford study did not look at Arab connection to Sinhalese. Are there such studies?

Looks like you have to give that medicine to AI first.

LTTE is not foolish to get medicine from a Voodoo doctor!

Since we are talking about genealogy,

Forget about genealogy, have some quality family time at least when your home.
