The importance of the old Dravidian civilisation in the South, and of the Munda-speaking peoples in the eastern parts of Central India, has likewise been overlooked by scientific deliberation before these discoveries, and- especially before objective methods were introduced, about the beginning of the twentieth century into the sciences of ethnology, archseol• ogy, culture-history and related departments of research.
Koppers showed that Buddhism vas in a deep-rooted affinity related to the pre-Aryan mother• right of Azcient India 5 and that Buddhism represented a religio-cultural reaction against the caste-system, the purely patriarchal social system, with its suroression of Indian womanhood and the rule of the Brahrnins over the RiJputs, as introduced by the Aryan immigrants.
v, A thorough study of this Indus-civilisation led Marshall to the con• viction that the majority of essential and characteristic qualities also in the present-day civilisation of India, Indian· art, Indian sociology and conception of life, originated in ancient times and among the pre-Aryan inhabitants of Mohenjo-daro and Harappa !
Tirumalpad, Tiyan (Izhavan),' The aforesaid hypothesis of Koppers, 2 to the effect that Buddhism represents a reaction of the old matriarchal culture of India, suppressed by the Aryan immigrants, is thus considerably strengthened by my discovery of an old historic relation between the Nayar-group and the Indus-civilisation.
These discoveries, facts and investigations, make it at least probable that close coherencies have been existing between the pre-Aryan cultures of India and the old Semitic ones in the Near East, as well as between the peoples who created and worked out the two civilisations.
