Dear Gnana,
Thank you for sharing this new light on our island’s inhabitants.
Isn’t there any further knowledge on how long ago these little islands around the north separated off from the main land mass? Already we have evidence that the main island of Srilanka began to separate from the Indian peninsula only 7000 years ago! These little bits must have set off after that!
Regards.
Mahen
