Friends,

Evolvement of Brahmi Scripts have been analysed in Depth by Various Scholars and waht I said was only their View as Crisp.

Brahmi Tamil development can be put in 3 Stages.

BT1- Sanskrit Letters used for Pragrit used for Tamil withour consideration for Tamil Grammer mostly using Pragrit words and ends with Pragrit Literary styles.

BT2- Same now adopted and use Tamil grammer and Tamil ending - this starts by BCE50.

BT-Pulli Here putting Dots have started, with more Tamil words and tamil styles . This is from CE100-300.

Tholkappiyam Ezuthathikaram uses BT-Pulli for its base.

More from Tholkappiyam and Brahmi in my next posts.

Devapriya.
