Indian languages have three distinct origins:

1. Indo- Aryan (Indo European origin): most north region languages

2. Indo -Burmese: most eastern region languages

3. Proto -Dravidian :most south region languages.

The need for linguistic division began when British historians & linguistics studies the sociological -historical origin & structure of the Indian population.

How did the Dravidian and Aryan cultures blend during the Vedic Age?

During the Vedic Age, the Dravidian and Aryan cultures blended through interactions between migrating Aryan tribes and the indigenous Dravidian populations in the Indian subcontinent. This fusion led to the integration of languages, religious practices, and social structures, as the Aryans introduced the Vedic texts and rituals, while Dravidian traditions contributed to local customs and agricultural practices. The result was a complex cultural tapestry that laid the foundation for subsequent Indian civilization, including the emergence of diverse regional identities and the caste system. This blending also facilitated the evolution of early Hinduism, incorporating elements from both cultures.
