Kodavas of Coorg: Bold, beautiful and brainy

Though they are Hindus, the language, customs, and traditions of Kodavas are distinct. That its men are brave and the women beautiful is an oft-remarked blanket statement about Coorg. The British called it the Scotland of India when they fell in love with this cool nook in the Western Ghats and its warm people.

The Kodavas or Coorgis are an ethnic minority. But unlike other minority communities, the Kodavas are largely privileged. In fact, a pleasant colonial hangover stays with the people who enjoy a good life with evening drinks, golf, and hockey.

Although a Hindu community on paper, their language, customs, and traditions are distinct.  “Easily one of the most martial cultures in the country, these are a people who ritually worship their guns and swords. Interestingly, till a few decades ago, the birth of a male child was marked with a gun shot, announcing to the world the arrival of a warrior,” writes Pattamada Sundar Muthanna in a coffee table book on Coorg tourism, brought out by journalist PT Bopanna.

Thanks to the outstanding contributions of this community to the country’s defence sector, Coorg is also called the Land of Generals.  Field Marshal Kodandera ‘Kipper’ Madappa Cariappa, the first Indian Chief of Army Staff of the Indian Army, was a Kodava. General KS Thimmayya was another brave soldier, who led the army during crucial conflicts with China and brought laurels to his homeland in the hills.

Ancient cult of Kammammu

H3 in Catalhoyuk at 6690 BCE

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0960982221004231 sequenced some of the Catalhoyuk samples from the data n = 9 such co-buried individuals associated with Buildings 17, 50, and 114. Some of these H3 subclades are matching the Kamma caste groups people. The Information on Catalhoyuk findings in Anatolia is shown below.

Sk.1885 (burial feature 84, Level South M, Middle period, Building 50): the primary flexed burial of a male child. He was 7 years ± 2yrs at death, excavated in 1995. This individual was interred directly above Sk.2033 (see below) in the southwest corner of B.50. Radiocarbon dating places this individual between 6905–6885 cal BCE (1%) or 6825–6635 cal BCE (92%) or 6625–6600 cal BCE (2%) (Table Z2).

Sk.2033 (burial feature 84, Level South M, Middle period, Building 50): the primary flexed burial of a male child 3 years ± 1yr at death, excavated in 1995. This individual was interred directly below Sk.1885 (see previous) in the southwest corner of B.50. Radiocarbon dating places this individual between 6690-6590 cal BCE (95%) (Table Z2).

Sk.2779.1 (burial feature 265, Level South M, Middle period, Building 50): the primary burial of a male neonate (0-2 months at death based on measurements of the basi-occipital bone), excavated in 1997. The burial was heavily disturbed by Mellaart’s earlier excavations in this building during the 1960s.

Sk.2842 (burial feature 274, Level South M, Middle period, Building 50): a disturbed primary burial of a female infant aged 18 months (±6 months) at death based on dental development. It was excavated in 1998 from Building 50, located in the South Area of the site. The body was placed in a small pit near the center of the main room and was partially disturbed by a later burial. Radiocarbon dating of the petrous bone places this individual between 6690-6505 cal BCE (95%) (Table Z2).

The other Haplogroups in the same burial were G2a2a1 and C1a2

 The H3 haplogroup subclades from Catalhoyuk 7th millenium BC are matching the recent Kamma group in South India.

 It is also pertinent to note that multiple H3 sub-clades under H-Z586- are present among Kamma caste. The parts of Telugu shows close similarity to some parts of Hittite. Some of the Hittite phrases look as it is in the Telugu language used by Kammas. The name Kamma itself probably derived from the ancient goddess Kummanu cult and from previous palaic Kammama cult and continued as Elamite Kamul and Luwian Kamrusepa. The Bronze Age Kamboj group probably adopted from this early Anatolian farmer group god/goddess when it spread into Urals and further.

The Elamite areas also contain some of these Kammamma cult

Pp. 103-119: “A New Reading of the Middle Elamite Text Shun I 9,” by Jalil Bakhtiari

There are four complete or almost complete unprovenanced bricks and twenty-one brick fragments from the site of Toll-e Bard-e Karegar in Khuzestan belonging to the only Elamite inscription mentioning the god Kamul. All of them represent exemplars of the one and the same text (ShuN I 9), written in the name of the Elamite king Shutruk-Nahhunte I (ca. 1190–1155 BCE). The text describes a temple that the king had rebuilt and dedicated to the god Kamul. In this article, a new reading and translation of the last sentence of the text that is divided into four sections and compared with parallels in Old and Middle-Elamite texts, is suggested. In addition, the brick fragments TBK 16 and 28 are reread and classified and TBK 89, 114, 122, and 127 are published.

Interestingly the area bordering Anatolia and the Mittani kingdom was called kummanu

Language features between Telugu and Hittite matching

Even some of the Hittite inscriptions seem to have deep match for the Telugu language. Looking at the following inscription ->

Muršili, after returning from his northwestern campaign simply states:
nu URU Ḫattuši arḫa uu̯anun ‘I came back to Ḫattuša’ (Annaals KBo V 8 IV 2)
I was probably not only one, because Puhvel goes even further and translates ‘came home to Ḫattuša’:

Hittite -> Nu URu Hattusi arha uuanun
Telugu -> Na URu Hattus ki tirigu vachanun

Analysis of Hittite texts show 3% match with Telugu which is equal or more than Sanskrit which is surprising since Hittite has more Indo European than Dravidian/Elamite & Caucausian base. The following cognate percentages uploaded by Nrken19 shows this.

Eneolithic and Bronze age

Lord Rama and the EBA/Eneolithic era

 

The Steppe mating network of Eneolithic era had important R1a-M198* and R1a-M417*-Z280 and R1b-pre-V1636-rich  and R1b-(pre-)M269 moving into Southern city states such as Arslantepe and Meggido etc... starting the Bronze Age elite dominance in many cultures like in Hurrian/Mittani, Kunbi/Iskhvaku etc..

The extent of ETC ware might be associated with this culture

The diffusion of these Eneolithic groups into different cultures like Hattic or Nesean and Meggido etc.. and extended also into India in the form of the Solar dynasty/Ikshvaku of Lord Rama. This lineage might have been a much smaller migration compared to later Indo-Aryan migrations primarily impacting the failing Saraswati civilization horizon and their move into the upper Gangetic plains and the establishment of republics. The presence of ancient Baltic admixure/WHG in certain social groups in India was probably from this era. During that time there was Iranian Farmer civilization of Neolithic people who have established city states on the edges of South Asia in places like Mehrgarh and Seistan basin with trade connectivity to the BMAC states up north and to Susa and to Mesopotamian city states. 

These Iranian neolithic trade networks with Mesopotamia extended into Mehrgarh which was probably called Meluha. During the early Saraswat civilization prior to 8th millennium BC these were probably small thriving cities but when the Saraswati river started drying out bunch of Indian people moved into these Iranian city states like Shahr-e-Sokhte and Mehragarh and Gonur further north as the part of the trade networks. During that time in the Gangetic valley there was initial establishment of Ikshvaku dynasty as a elite warrior group among the Neolithic people there. Many people still existed on hunter gatherer lifestyle as we can see people depicted as monkeys in the epic Ramayana refering to those hunter gather lifestyle people.

The early groups such as Sage king Janaka etc.. who were the ones representing sanatan tradition prior to Lord Rama and his Ikshvaku dynasty probably represent the declining once-flourishing Saraswati civilization culture. The early caste groups such as Kurmi/Kunbi, Koeri, Pasi etc.. probably formed during this early establishments. The bulk of the current social groups formed from multiple interactions with the paleolithic hunter gatherers and the Eneolithic Caucausus Steppe elite groups like Ikshvaku and the herder groups such as Gujjar. These kind of Steppe Elite and Herder groups are found all over the Near East city states similar to how the Mitanni were ruled by Hurrian elite warriors. The epic of gilgamesh shows how the newer entrants were able to subdue the local Hunter Gatherers and the theme of the Ramayana is uses the similar background but goes on to define the ideals of the kingdom and the kingship.

The multiple interactions of H1 and some F1 local groups with the J2a Iranian farmers and the R1a-280 198 Eneolithic elite groups and R1a*/R2b nomadic herders formed the bulk of the current social groups and laid the foundations for the Bronze age. The Saraswat civilization was totally devastated due to climate change resulting in the people moving into Iranian Neolithic farmer cities and then coming back into the newly created city states of Indus Valley civilization of Mohenjo-Daro, Harappa, Lothal etc...  

However thriving Indian Neolithic regions in the Upper and lower Gangetic valley and in the Deccan and in the Mahanadi region caused people to start moving out of IVC once the climate becoming dry 

The native people who formed trade networks with the mesopotamia through Elam and harboured elite LC/EBA warriors can be described using the analogy of Mohenjo-daro seal of Pashupati (meaning Lord Shiva with all the animals in his famous yogic pose) with the celtic Bronze age seals which depict different set of animals but in the same hunter gatherer mode. This kind of seal probably indicates the infleunce of early Caucausian Steppe on the local Hunter Gatherer population who lived by trading in Water buffalos, wild cereals, monkeys, fruits etc.. with the outside groups. The Mesopotamian seals show Indian influence by depicting carnelian beads, monkeys, long buffalos etc.. which are probably items exported via Susa/Elam/Meluha port.  Some of the early Celtic and Slavic motifs are also present in the seals and religious objects probably indicating that the Caucasian Steppe groups are related to each other during this LC/EBA time.

Lord Krishna and the Late Bronze Age

The mixing of Anatolian/Levantine with Iranian Chalcolithic/Zagros further with the Indian HG defines the Late Bronze Age era in India

The resurgence of the ancient Indian pastoral groups and mixing with the nomadic herders such as Gujars, Ahirs etc.. creating bigger groups like Yadavs out of the ancient Indian pastoral 

The resurgent Indian groups now took on the failing BMAC states and frontier Iranian states while annexing them as much as they could. These events are part of the Grand epic Mahabharata which shows the central position played by Lord Krishna in determining the events of the Northern kingdoms and prominence of Delhi (Hastinapur) after the fall of warriors in the war of Mahabharata

Lord Krishna and the Yadu race settled in Dwaraka after the war indicates that some of the Indus valley trade was still active during the Middle and Late Bronze age. The ruins of Dwaraka are now under the sea due to a comet impact in nearby sea later.
