THE FOREFATHERS OF THE MAYANS SET SAIL FOR MESO-AMERICA.
[Right: A beach in the Konkan.]
The time is about 1,500 BC. A fleet of Tamil ships in some harbor of the
Konkan or Kankon, a beautiful white sand coastline stretching from
todayÃs Maharasthra to the southern tip of Western India, raises anchor
and sails south to what is now the large island nation of Ceylon
(todayÃs Sri Lanka). Their goal is to sail to Patala or what is now
Mexico and Meso-America, leaving emigrant settlers there. During their
stay in Ceylon, they recruit skilled stone workers, skilled craftsmen,
and temple builders in the province of Maya, to build a new Tamil
civilization over or alongside an Akkad-type (Sumerian) civilization
that was already in Meso-America: that of the Olmecs or Olman.
[Right: Zikharis in Konkan.] The ancient Tamils were international
traders and colonizers. Wherever they went in the world, they left an
unmistakable imprint of their presence, such as place names, foods,
games, and temple buildings. Their temple buildings were usually zikharis
(tiered or pyramidical temple platforms). Often, small entrances or
temples were located on each tier, but not always. On the top tier,
there was always a temple. On top if it often stood an ornate
rectangular steeple. However, circular domes or single spires often
stood on top of the temple as well. Zikharis usually varied in
appearance, according to the Dravidian or Tamil-derived cultures of the
host nations. But one thing never changed: the unmistakable presence of
Tamil influence.

ABOUT WHO THE PHOENICIANS REALLY WERE.
Before continuing with this article, I must clarify who the Phoenicians
really were. I first learned about these people who settled the earth,
about whom modern man knows nearly nothing, from the 19th century
British Orientalist George RawlinsonÃs book, Phoenicia. He was
considered as the leading authority on these hardy mariners. But even he
was off base. He said that the Phoenicians had no definite homeland but
occupied trading ports all over the Middle East. In the Western
hemisphere, they were called Puni but did not usually answer to that
name. Furthermore, he said they were a Mediterranean people. Yet, in
studying Hindu history, I discovered that they also existed in Central
Asia and India. But there, they were called Pani. Not even in India did
they call themselves Pani.
In his brief but enlightening little book, The Rig Veda ñ a History, Bengali historian, Rajeswar Gupta, stated: ìÖin ancient times the Red Sea and the Mediterranean Sea were connected together by a strait through which the Phoenicians and Aryan trading ships entered the MediterraneanÖAs that passage silted up the connection between India and Europe broke off.î (p. 4.)
Had Professor Gupta been more acquainted with the Turkish-related nations in Central Asia, he wouldÃve realized that the Phoenicians and Aryans were the same people. The Phoenicians in the Middle East eventually lost their awareness of being Dravidians, separating themselves in many small city coastal states.
Even today, the Turkish peoples call themselves Ari. The forefathers of the Turkish peoples also called themselves Pancha (Five) Krishtayas (The Original Five Races of Mankind).
Like me, Professor Gupta intuited that the Phoenicians had originated in Central Asia. Herodotus, the Greek Historian, did not mention the Phoenicians as being a disorganized collection of city states, but as a single political entity. I intuited that the original Phoenicia was Anatolia (Turkey) and Bulgaria. Greece was at one time a part of Phoenicia but later broke away. Even now the Greeks are a great sea people as are the Turks. As a matter of fact, the famed Piri Reis 6000 years old map of the world was made from older Turkish maps. The Mercateur map is another example.

UNDERSTANDING THE MEANING OF THE TERM PANI OR PUNI
If the Panis or Punis did not call themselves by those names, what do
those similar terms mean? This anomaly perplexed me because the word
exists in nearly all the languages of the world, even in Meso-America.
It is a fact that Panama was named after them because it was and is a
passage allowing boats to cross it. To find out what the term Pani
meant, I consulted the book, The Civilized Demons, the Harappans in Rig
Veda, by Malati J. Shendge: ìThey participated in the international
trade, taking the caravans from place to place, supplying goods
according to demand by bringing them from places where they were in
surplus. (p. 222.) In short, it means ìtraffic; moving from one place
to another.î The same meaning is found in the Nahuatl language: pan
(external location); pano; opano (crossing to the other side), etc. (See
Angel Maria GaribayÃs Llave del Nahuatl.) Even in our English
language, the prefix ìpanî means roughly the same thing:
ìall-encompassing; everywhere, etc.î
THE SUMERIANS WERE TURKS.
Many people find it difficult to accept that even the Akkad or Sumerians
were Turkish.
The Akkads (Sumerians) were Phoenicians. known also as Kads, Khatti,
etc., Originally, they were a Turkish (Kur, Tur, Tul, Tol, etc.) people
from what our Bible calls Eden, the Akkadian word for the Steppes
(Central Asia). Before the Great Flood, the Steppes or Eden was regarded
as an earthly paradise. However, when the Great Flood inundated what
are now the Altai, Tannu (Tiva, Teva, or Tuva), and Khakassia Turkish
republics, the survivors had to build their civilization all over again.
Many fled to what is now India, becoming Indians themselves, joining
the eastern part of the Northern and southern hemisphere as a single
nation.
Many of the post-flood tribes had been reduced to savagery. The Aryans
or Kurs (Turks) could not rehabilitate them. A Bulgarian king, known in
Indian mythology as the god of gold, good fortune and treasure, Kubera
(Khyber, Kheever, or the biblical Heber) decided to banish them to
Lanka. He and his followers, the Yakhus or Yakshas, thought they would
thrive more peacefully in that fertile, tropical country. However, not
even there would they civilize themselves. With the exception of the
Mayans of Altai and some Huna (Hunnish or Mongol) tribes, most of the
incorrigible nomadic tribes, called Rakshasas and Pisacas, preferred to
exist in the depths of degradation.
The Kubera people were called Nagas or Chans because the snake was their emblem. According to the Ramayana, they peopled the world, taking about 10,000 years to do so. Kubera and his Yakhsas, along with the Mayans I have already mentioned, then killed as many Rakshasas and Pisacas as possible, taking the survivors to Patala.
In his book, Remedy the Frauds in Hinduism, historian Kuttikhat Purushothoma Chon mentioned the Siberian origin of the Mayans. ìMaya architects are mentioned in our epic Mahabharata. Maya people are in Siam and East Asia. There is a place called Mayyavad in Kerala. The Uttar Pradesh people have the meaning of Mayya as mother in phrases like ëGanga ki Mayya.à There is a vast area in Russian East Siberia as well as a river by name Maya.î (p. 28.)
The Cologne Sanskrit Lexicon defines the Maya as mathematicians (measurers), astronomers, military strategists, magicians, wise-men, and builders. Our Mesoamerican Mayans definitely fit this description.
Malati J. Shendge said that the Panis, Asuras, Yakshas, and Mayans were partners in a common cause.

DNA EVIDENCE OF A SIBERIAN ORIGIN OF OUR AMERICAN INDIANS.
Russian scientists have recently discovered that the DNA of people from
the Siberian Khakassia and Altai regions bordering on Tuva (also known
as Tannu, Tiva and Teva). The Mayans are supposed to have originated in
Altai. Later, the Kubera hordes took them to Ceylon where they became a
great people. To date, little research has been done on the DNA of the
Tuvans. The Russian scientists believe that the people of Tuva may have
even a higher DNA match with Amerindians. All that is remaining now is
to test the DNA of Mayans in other Asian lands, also that of our own
Mayans, the Inca Nahua, Maya, and Mayo clans, as well as that of the
Mexican Yaquis (Yakhs?) and Mayo (Maya)-two tribes speaking the same
language.
WHO WERE THE ASURAS?
Malati J. Shendge says that the Asura empire governed the Indus Valley
(Western India): ìÖthese peoplesÖwere well-versed in agriculture,
technology, engineering, sea-faring and trade and had established a
control on river waters by setting up dams and irrigation canals.î (The
Civilized Demons, p. 289,) Within this context, even the Phoenicians
were Asuras.
WERE THESE ASURAS AND THEIR ALLIES LIGHT OR DARK-SKINNED?
That the Aryans living in the coastal lands of Western India were
dark-skinned Dravidians, there is no doubt. Arrian said in his book
Indica: ìThe inhabitants upon the Indus are in their looks and
appearance not unlike the Ethiopians. Those upon the southern coast
resemble them the most, for they are very black, and their hair is also
black; but they are not so flat-nosed, nor have they woolly hair. They,
who are more to the north, have a great resemblance to the Egyptians.î
A certain Hindu nationalist group has tried to convince the Hindus that the so-called ìAryan invasionî was a white Europoid lie in order to oppress non-whites. However, they cannot explain why the one hundred fifty million people living in the Turkish-related nations still call themselves Ari (Aryan). Additionally, Krishtayas claimed to be all the races of mankind.
[Right: A group of Tamils honoring my friend T. L. Subash Chandra Bose
at a religious meeting. He is the man in the background, wearing a
garland of flowers.] Dr. Polyat Kaya, a Turkish professor of historical
linguistics, wrote: ìPre-Iranian culture was Turanian culture and
civilization before theAryans. Indus civilization was also a Turanian
culture like the Sumerian culture was. Dravidian being related to these
ancient cultures ties them all together and also to Turkish. They are
all agglutinative languages although historians and linguists are
conditioned not to mention the name Tur/Turk.î (Istanbul allingus@hotmail.com.)
The traditional garb of Dravidian men has not changed in thousands of years. Like the ancient Assyrians, they wear long flowing skirts reaching to their ankles.
Many scholars agree that Asura was Assyria, an empire extending from West-Central Asia down to the tip of Southwestern India. If I am correct in assuming that the Dravidians were the Asuras, they are mentioned in Genesis as Ashur, son of Shem. (Genesis 10:22.)
The ancient Phoenicians claimed that they originally came from the lands alongside the ìErythean Sea.î The ìErythean Seaî is now the Arabian Ocean,î extending from Pakistan throughout all the western coast of India.

WERE THE OLMECS TURKISH?
The Olmecs or Olman were the first civilization in Meso-America.
Although there are abundant physical and linguistic artifacts of their
existence, only the Nahuatl-speaking tribes and the Mayans knew
something about the Olmecs or Olman as a people. For certain, we know
that they were Turks because Olmak and Olman are the Turkish names for
Adam. Perhaps they called themselves thusly because they were the first
inhabitants of Mexico.
[Right: ArtistÃs idea of what the ancient Olmec city of La Venta looked
like.]
The Olmecs supposedly entered Western Mexico in boats, crossing the then
navigable Isthmus of Tehuantepec. They first settled on the east coast
of Veracruz by the river Papaloapan. The Nahuatl-speaking people
couldnÃt pronounce ìB.î Papaloapan was probably Babalu-apan
(Babylonian Crossing).
The Olmecsà Zikhari (Temple Mounts) were similar to those of the Sumerian Zigurrats and with virtually the same name: Zicualli and Zacualli. Because the Nahuatl tribes couldnÃt say ìL,î it was probably a dialectical version of Zigurrat: Zicuari.
[Left: A central Asian Ziggurat with upper elevations eroded by
centuries.] Hundreds of years after settling on the coast, they moved in
to the central highlands of Mexico and as far northward as the
present-day state of San Luis Potosi. Traces of them may eventually be
found as far as Southwestern United States.
As they multiplied and spread out, they eventually forgot they were Olmecs and Olman. About all they could remember is that they came to America in boats: Nava or Nauvak (Nahua or Nauwak), ìship people.î
Eventually, Nauvak changed to Anauwak (no longer ship people). Even today, the Nahuatl word Anahuac means ìbetween two waters.î The Nahuatl-speaking tribes also called themselves Toltec, derived from Toltika, meaning ìSons of Tulan or Turan.î When the Spaniards arrived in Mexico, the Aztecs called them ìTules,î thinking they, too, were Turks.
[Above: Map of Tula in Siberian Russia. Did the Aztecs come from this Tula?]
They and the Sumerians prayed to the same mother goddess:
Southern Persia, Afghanistan, and Pakistan had several different names: Sivapuri (The Region of God Shiva), Sivabhu (Sacred Land of Shiva), Sivapuni (The Purity of Shiva), and Shivulba (The Womb, Origin, or Cave of Shiva). The Pueblo Indians called their underworld or place of origin Sibapu or Sibapuni; for the Mayans, it was Shibalba, their "underworld" and place of the gods. The linguistic and functional similarities of the Hindu Sivabhu, Sivapuni, and Shivulba with the Puebloan Sibapu, Sivapuni, and the Mayan Shivalba (Xibalba) are too nearly exact to be coincidences.
[Right: The "Sumerian" Statue in Tepoztlan, Morelos.]
A Tepe was a low, steep hill surrounded by a village. The Tepe was used both as a fortress in case of attack and as a religious center honoring the villageÃs special deity-often a mother goddess. A few of the many hundreds of Tepes scattered over Sivabhu, even into the Middle East, are Tepe Yaya, Tepe Ya, Tepe Kilize, Tepe Liman, Tepe Catal, Tepe Godin, Tepe Cora, etc.
Mexico is the only region outside the Middle East and Central Asia, where we find hundreds of these combination protective and holy hills called Tepes. Some of these are Tepatit·n, Tuxtepec, Tepec, Tepic, Mazatepec, Tepetatas, Tepantita, Tepetzintla, Tepuste, Tepetlix, Tepetlalco, ad infinitum.
In ancient Sivabhu, the deities located at the tops of these tepes were called Yah, Yakh, Yakhu, Yaksha, Yakshi etc., meaning ìGuardian Angel.î The leading Mexican Yakshi (female guardian angel) had her sanctuary atop what is now Tepeyac (Hill of the Guardian Angel) in Mexico City. She is now the Virgin of Guadalupe.
Eventually, the non-Olmec tribes in Mexico, if there were ever any at all, copied their civilization after them. The Aztecs claimed that they had once lived in what are now the Florida Cays. When their city went under water, a sea-faring group saved them, dumping them on the Mexican mainland. In their annals, they said they adopted the civilization of the people already there.
The Nahuatl-speaking tribes and the Mayans told the Spaniards that a people called Tamoan-chan or Tamuan-chan also mixed with the Olmecs. These would be people from some part of Oceania, such as Samoa or New Zealand. (See GaribayÃs Llave del Nahuatl.) The word ìChanî meant ìPlace of Snakesî
In the 1950s, I visited a strange rock formation near Tepoztlan, Morelos, resembling a badly eroded Sumerian statue. Some people think it is just a natural formation, but I do not. There are other man-made formations near it, that are definitely not Aztec.

THE MAYANS WERE TAMILS.
I am now ready to return to the hypothetical voyage of Tamils to
America. They probably used two types of maps. The map below-left shows
Mt. Meru with petals pointing in four directions. The left petal points
toward a distant land called Ketumal or Chetumal. In order to reach that
land, they had to go eastward in order to avoid sailing around the tip
of Africa. They knew where they were going, for they had been there
before! The map below-right was their own map of the world.
The Mayans said that the land of their forefathers lay 150 days westward.
When the Tamils arrived in North America, they crossed over to what is now the Caribbean Sea, through the Isthmus of Panama (The Great Crossing). After coming out the other side, they docked in the safe harbor of Chetumal. It still bears the same name. Chetumal harbor is in Belize. Belize derives from Belisha (God Shiva).
[Right:
Photo of Chetumal harbor in Belize.]Later, they left Chetumal, sailing
up the coast to a place reminding them of the beauty of their old home
in Konkan. They dropped anchor and made their first home in America
there. Not surprisingly, they decided to name their new home Kankun
(Cancun). After thousands of years, the last syllable has barely changed
in pronunciation.
[Left: Beach scene in Tulum, Cancun area. Right: Map showing their voyage from Chetumal to Cancun.]
When the Tamils settled in Yucat·n, they built their typical zikharis,
such as those of Tikal and Palenque. At Tikal, they stained their stone
monuments a reddish color, just as they had done back in the Konkan.
[Left: A Tikal Zikhari. Right: A Pelenque Zikhari.]
People are surprised to see stone images of elephants in Mayan country,
such as the following one in Copan. It may be a reminder of the
elephants in India.
[Right:
Stone etching of a Hindu mahout, complete with turban, riding on the
head of an elephant.] Some authorities, who do not agree with me that
the Mayans came from abroad, think Southern Mexico once had elephants.
The truth is that they worshiped a long-nosed god (Chac) or elephant,
just as the Hindu Tamils worshiped the elephant-headed Ganesha in India.
Chak was the long-nosed Mayan God of thunder, lightning, rain, and crops. His elephantine trunk sprayed water on the earth. His equivalent in other parts of the world was Zeus, Dyaus, Jupiter, Ca, Jah, Ju, Jahve, Jehova Jeho, Sakh, Sagg, Sa-ga-ga, Sakko, Zagg, Zax. a.k.a. Zeus, is often depicted holding a serpentine thunderbolt and a grail, or someone is handing it to him. The Mayan Chak is equally depicted.

LINGUISTIC EVIDENCE THAT THE MAYANS WERE FROM CEYLON.
They gave several names that directly and indirectly identified Ceylon:
Shilanka (Xilanca) - an ancient name of Ceylon (Zeilan-Ka).
Shikalanka (Xicalanca) - Ceylon. In Tamil, Shikalam.
Itzamna was one of their culture heroes. He claimed to have come from a western country. Isham, meaning 'Tiger, ""Land of Gold," was a Dravidian name of Ceylon. The Na in Isham-na is an honorific.
Ishbalanka (Xbalanca), another culture hero. In Tamil, it means "Shiva of Lanka." India's God Shiva was supposed to have made the footprint on top of Adam's Peak in today's Sri Lanka.
Shibalba, The Mayan underworld. This word stems From the Sanskrit Shivulba, meaning ìfrom the fountainhead of God Shiva-Mt. Meru, in India.î
Palenke (Palenque). This name derives from the Tamil Pal-Lanka, meaning "Protectorate of Lanka." Ancient Lanka was IndiaÃs ìAtlantis.î
The Yaxilan (Yakshilan) Mayan ruins. This name means ìThe Ceylon Yakhsî in Sanskrit.
Ceren, a name of Ceylon. Some Mayan ruins in El Salvador are called Ceren.
Lacandon, a tribe of Yucatan. India's god Kubera banished the Laks, a Tartarian Huna or Rakshasha tribe from Northern India to Ceylon, giving the country one of its many names and becoming the Lakan or Lakam people. The Don in Lacan-don derives from Dan (Tannu or Dannu?). (See the online Cologne Sanskrit and Tamil dictionaries for comparison of ancient Ceylon names with those of Mayan tribes and places.)

THE THREE PROVINCES OF ANCIENT CEYLON.
Ancient Ceylon was divided into three provinces: Maya, the central division of the island; Ruhuna (Soul of Huna Land), and Pihitee, the northernmost of the three. The Ceylonese Maya
were known for their impressive astronomical knowledge, architectural
marvels, temples, and irrigation ponds. (Reference: The History of
Ceylon, by William Knighton, first published in Colombo Ceylon, in
1845.)
One of the names of Ceylon's cult religions was Mayon. It still exists among a few aboriginals living on the island.
Most of the Rakshasa and Pisaca bad boys were Tartarian Hunas, They came from Huna-Bhu, meaning ìHunas (Tartars) from the Sacred Land around Mt. Meru.î Many of these tribes were cannibalistic, given to intertribal fighting, practitioners of human sacrifice in their religious rites, flattened the foreheads of their babies, took scalps in battle, and observed other customs attributed to many Amerindian tribes. The Mayans remember them as the culture hero, Hunapu (Huna-Bhu?).
Had the natives of Meso-America been able to pronounce the "ST" combination, today's Yucatan would be Yucasthan (Yakhuthan?). Even today, many Mexican Indians and peasants cannot pronounce this combination. For example, instead of CÛmo est·? (How are you?), they can only say, "øCÛmo t·?"
Guatemala derives from Sanskrit Guadhaamala, meaning Guha (Cosmic Intelligence) + Dha (Serpentine) + Amala (Umbilical Cord), the Sacred Umbilical Cord Linking Western Asia and India with Meso-America. Besides the Ceylonese and Tamil tribal names Yakkha, Maya, and Lak in Maya country, there are also the Lenca and Rama tribes. The Mayan lowlands are even called Guanacaste, meaning The Western Enlightened Nagas. It is assumed that the Olmecs spoke Nahuatl because of the place-names they left behind. The Olmecs called the Maya country in Southeastern Veracruz, Coatzacoalcos (Snake Sanctuary). Snake Sanctuary was none other than the home of the Western or American Nagas.
ìOriginally, the Asuras or Nagas were not only a civilized people, but a maritime powerÖ,Kadru, the mother of serpents, compelled Garuda (the Eagle or Hawk) to serve her sons by transporting them across the sea to a beautiful land, which was inhabited by Nagas. The Asuras (Nagas) were expert navigators who possessed very considerable naval resources and had founded upon distant coasts.î (The Encircled Serpent by M. Oldfield, p. 47.)
Even
today, the Mexican flag has an Eagle with a serpent in its mouth,
representing the arrival of the ancient Mexicans to Meso-America. It
also represents the arrival of the Meshika to what is now Mexico City.
[Right: Mexican flag.] The Tamils and all the tribes of Meso-America, from Mexico to Panama, played the same board game: Pachesi. The Meso-Americans called it by a linguistically similar name: Patolli. (Note: CH and T are linguistically similar. LL was the only way the Renaissance Spaniards could approximate the sounds of Z and J. This proves that Patolli derived from Pachesi.) I myself saw a Patolli board game at the National Museum of Costa Rica, in San Jose.

One of the names of Ceylon's cult religions was Mayon. It still exists among a few aboriginals living on the island.
Most of the Rakshasa and Pisaca bad boys were Tartarian Hunas, They came from Huna-Bhu, meaning ìHunas (Tartars) from the Sacred Land around Mt. Meru.î Many of these tribes were cannibalistic, given to intertribal fighting, practitioners of human sacrifice in their religious rites, flattened the foreheads of their babies, took scalps in battle, and observed other customs attributed to many Amerindian tribes. The Mayans remember them as the culture hero, Hunapu (Huna-Bhu?).
Had the natives of Meso-America been able to pronounce the "ST" combination, today's Yucatan would be Yucasthan (Yakhuthan?). Even today, many Mexican Indians and peasants cannot pronounce this combination. For example, instead of CÛmo est·? (How are you?), they can only say, "øCÛmo t·?"

BOTH THE MEXICAN INDIANS & TAMILS ATE TAMALES WITH THE SAME NAME!
The Tamils and Turks even gave some of their favorite dishes to the
ancient Mexicans, and with the same names! I will name just two of them:
Tamales and Corundas. The ancient Tamils were known as Tamils or
Tamals. One of their favorite foods was a type of paste or filling
wrapped in bamboo husk. Even in Tamil Nadu it is called Tamal. The
Michoacanos have a similar triangular shaped tamal called Corunda. In
Turkic it would be kur-unda (Turkic dough).
My Tamil Nadu friend, Mr. Subash Bose, pointed out to me the fact that Hindus often worship cobras and that the Mayans worshipped rattlesnakes. He said that Mayan huts look exactly like those in Tamil Nadu.
The Kuberas even gave their name to North America. The Meso-Americans told the Spaniards that North America was Quivira (Land of the Khyber People).
Most of us have heard of the Mayan holy book, Chilam Balam. Chilan or Chilam is a title of Mayan priests. Balam is the Mayan name for Jaguar. In Sanskrit, Cheilan = Ceylonese and Vyalam = tiger; lion; hunting leopard. ìJaguarî probably stems from the Sanskrit Higkara, meaning Tiger-like or ìsounding like a tiger.î
The Mayans called their ìQuetzalcoatlî Kukulcan and Gukumats. These names appear to derive directly from the Turkic language. Kuk or Gok derived from the Turkic Gog and Gok, names of ancient Turkish tribes. Ulu means ìhigh placed.î Mats derives from Masi, the Turkic word for ìMessiah.î Khan is a Turkic word for ìKing.î Therefore, Kukulcan=Gogulkhan (The Revered King of Gog.) Gukumats=Gokumasi (The Revered Gok Messiah).
The presence of Dravidian, Turkic, and Sanskrit words in America shouldnÃt surprise anyone, for the Aryans and Indians (Ramanaka) traveled together throughout the world. In his book, El OrÃŒgen de los Indios, the Spanish priest, Gregorio PÈrez, wrote that the Caribbean Indians said that their founding fathers were the Kuru-Rumani.
Some Dravidians think Sanskrit sprang from Dravidian, but my research does not indicate this. Many of the Turks also spoke Aramaic, for at one time it was more generally spoken than it is now. The Turkish linguist, Professor Polyat Kaya, states that such languages as Sanskrit, Dravidian, Hebrew, Chinese, and many others are anagrams derived from Turkish. He also said that the Mayan language derives from Turkish.
In this article, I have just presented a tiny part of the evidence in my possession, pointing to the Indian and Ceylonese origins of the Mayans. I have decided to end this article by recounting what the Jesuit priest Francisco Xavier Clavigero wrote in Volume I of his Historia Antigua de Messico (Ancient History of Mexico). Clavigero said that the Chiapaneco Mayans told him that a grandson of Noah, Votan, took people to people America. He was from the Chan (Naga or Serpent) tribe. They said that he came from the East, bringing seven groups with him. Two other leaders (Groups?) had also previously brought in settlers: Igh and Imox. He built a great city, now known as Palenque, call ìNauchan,î meaning City of the Serpents. When Noah emerged from the Ark, he and his people built their first city, calling it Nashan (The Noachide Chan).
Votan founded three tributary monarchies called Tulan, Mayapan, and Chiquimala. The ruins of Tulan are those of Tula, Hidalgo, Mexico. Mayapan is the Yucatan peninsula itself. I have not yet located the region of Chiquimala. Perhaps it is Guatemala or the Mayan province of Tzequil.
Like many Europoids ignorant of India and its history, Clavigero tried to place them in Cartagena, Africa, Rome, and even Spain. But he at least intuited that the early Mayan settlers were Phoenicians.
Had he been more knowledgeable about ancient India and Ceylon, he would have known that they were Ceylonese, for in Tamil, VALAM POTAM means ìPlace of Boats.î Valam Potan (Ceylon) was located between the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn, where the trade winds are. The differences between Valum Votan and Valam Potam are trivial.
Notice the following map showing the sea and land routes of the ancient Tamils. Below it, youÃll notice the words Oceanus Indicus (Indian Ocean). The ancient maps which the Spaniards used to get to America showed the same terms: Mar Indica; Oceanus Indica. From where did they obtain those maps showing that the eastern end of Oceanus Indica was America?

The stone heads staring at the sea, from the shores of Easter Island,
tell us a lot about the ancient sailors theyÃre supposed to represent.
Notice their ìheadpieces.î Could they be Tamil turbans?

SOME PARTING THOUGHTS
Many people donÃt know that the Mayans and Toltecs werenÃt the only
immigrants who entered the Americas through Chetumal, the ìPlymouth
Rockî of many American Indians. I can name several United States Indian
tribes who also landed there. Their origin stories say so in plain
words.
In view of what I have said in this article, who is better qualified to identify the origins of our American Indians? Our Europoid academics? Or the Turks, Hindus, and American Indians?
All kinds of speculations have been made, many mystical, about the ancient sea-farers known as Wotan, Woden, the German Wuotan, the Yap Island Paathan, and the Philipine Bataan. Even today, a large tribe of Pakistanis are called Pathan. Votan was never a single person. He was really a ìnation of sailors.î This ancient nation of sailors and adventurers is still with us: The Dravidian Tamils!

Hello,
I came across this article Who Brought The Mayans To Mexico? By Gene D. Matlock. He mentions about the map having Mt Meru and the other one which is all circular and with symbolic pictures. Well, it might interest you to know that I have similar map with me. It has Mt meru at the centre surrounded by forest, land and rivers all in concentric pattern. We pray to Jambudvipa that was mentioned in the other map. And also these maps do not correspond to the earth rather the earth is a small part of it .
Howdy,
I just read your story on Hindus in Mexico for Viewzone and I found it very intriguing to say the least. I am a 5th generation hispanic living in San Antonio,Texas and for years as far back as I can remember, my grandmother kept telling me how her father was a Hindu. Now, I grew up Mexican-American and believing that I was Mexican-American with Spanish, Aztec and even Italian blood in me and I knew that I was always different from those around me and to this day I cannot place my finger on why I feel so, well displaced?
My mother died when I was about 2 years old in a car accident somewhere in Mexico so my grandmother raised me and so as I grew up with her and her old school ideals and mentality but she would tell me the story of how she grew up in the Missions here in San Antonio and how she remembers her father and her uncle being Hindus and how they were forced to take the surname Trevino. Ironically enough, my great grandfather a man whom I loved dearly was named Domingo Trevino. As a small child I would spend many summers with him and I recall him telling me that we were indians but then he would whisper to me that we were a mixed Indian type...? I recall him teaching me how to use a bow and arrow to fire off at chickens in the back yard for dinner, he was very crafty, feared nothing and at times would talk about how I had a rare blood flowing in me, I till this day don't know what that meant but I know that as I grew up on the impoverish westside neighborhood of San Antonio in the housing projects no less, I knew there was something different about me. After reading your story, I think it might have just shined some light on that indifference? And to think my cousin and I have laughed at my grandmother's Hindu story all this time! Wow! Maybe she wasn't crazy or lying to us after all, who knows? Maybe DNA as you put it? Thank you,
Roland "Chuck" Arriaga
