The origin of Dravida

Mahabharata links the origin of Dravidas with sage Vasistha. Viswamitra, a king in the Ikshwaku clan, attacked the cow of Vasistha. Then many armies emerged for the protection of that cow and they attacked the armies of Viswamitra. Cow symbolizes land, in ancient Indian scriptures. Thus this war was fought with the countries allied with Vasistha.Other kingdoms that were mentioned along with the Dravidas in this incident were Sakas, Yavanas, Savaras, Kanchis, Paundras and Kiratas, Nishada, Yavanas and Sinhalas, and the barbarous kingdoms of Khasas, Chivukas, Pulindas, Chinas Hunas with Keralas, Mlechchhas, etc.THE JANAPATHAS AND KINGDOMS OF SOUTH INDIA There are many Janapathas and kingdoms in the southern region of India, referred to in the Mahabharata. Most of these Janapadas are named after the community inhabiting them or vice versa. Some purar:ias, like the Matsya and the Vayu, rightly consider the Narmada and Mahanadi axis as the dividing line between Northern and Southern India and include the Tapti basin within the Southern region. Tittirah These people, mentioned in the Mahabharata, are found in the army of Yuddhisthar along with many north-western tribes. According to Shefer, on the evidence of Matsya puran, they are a Dravidian people of the region adjacent to the Chola and Pandays terntones. Reference P225 shodhganga ch5
