    Bullroarers - from the Dravidians to Australia?

    You know the thing that Crocodile Dundee swings? That's a bullroarer.

    I've found pictures of them in King Tut's tomb, and the ancient migrants from northern Africa must have brought them to Dravidian India. Sometime around 3000 BCE - about 1500 BCE, Dravidians moved to the north of Australia.

    I've never seen a Dravidian bullroarer, but I would love to know if it looks like the contemporary Australian or the ancient Egyptian ones.

    dont worry baby. what ever u say is 100% wrong/illogical.
    Soon a journal paper is gona be/will be released in American Anthropologist by this big daddy.
    indians are a blend of chinese + european races no single african. sumerians are tanned europeans so my theory holds true
    Most of the so called dravidians are europeans + some chinese.
    what is the use if u cant explain to me the reason for absence of curly hair in indians

    Bullroarers again

    Well, that's interesting.

    Are you coming to the meetings in Atlanta next month? If yes, let's compare hair.

    I didn't make up the stuff on the Dravidians. I got it from an Abo who took it from a 2001 genetics journal on mtDNA. I'll give you the reference if you want it.

    I'm not arguing about who people were. I just want to see a picture of what is lrecognized as a Dravidian bullroarer. I know they exist, but I can't find a picture or a description of one. For that matter, I don't have a Sumerian one. So, if you have any pictures, I could really use them.

    AAA Meetings and reference

    Good to know you will be there. Maybe we will meet up. As I said, though, I'm not doing genetic research and don't know anything about hair types. I am looking at bullroarers.

    I'll be giving two presentations. The first is on Tuesday at the Visual Research Conference (Society for Visual Anthropology). I believe my presentation is late in the morning. Then, I am doing a poster at the SVA-sponsored session on Thursday morning. Both presentations are titled "The Bullroarer as a Way of Knowing." If you want to check out some of my work, please just go to www.tui.edu and look under the doctoral faculty for Bethe Hagens.

    That reference I mentioned earlier is Adcock et. al., “Mitochondrial DNA sequences in ancient Australians”, PNAS (2001). Another is
    Redd, A. and Stoneking, “Peopling of Sahul: mtDNA variation in Aboriginal Australian and Papua New Guinean populations," American Journal of Human Genetics, v. 65 1999.

    thanks a lot for more details onthe reference.
    i will talk to my big daddy here at Univ of virginia ( top notch school in the US for anthropology. for walrus pls note that its the no 2 public school in the USA ).
    its all good.
    @hehe walrus ur a baby. so just dont interfere when two important deligates are talking. I have attended/spoke in a couple of international conferences at michigan and lascruces.
    meanwhile i dont know or even heard about ur school (union institute of technology). but its ok.
    again one month is quite a short period of notice. i haveto ask my prof regarding this.
    lol when ever u are strong in concepts u can always challenge a 1000 anthropologists saying/arguing with wrong facts.
    No doubt i will be a phenomenal anthropologist one day. hell iwas trying to switch on to the business school at uva which is rated in the top 10.
    @bethe
    sure we can discuss/work together about these interesting issues during the years to come.
    u will learn many things.

    Sometime you and hehewalrus will have to tell me what this site actually is. I got in here Google searching Dravidians and bullroarers, and it came up.

    good to know that u finally got what u wanted.
    this site is for everything. anything and everything what a forum can do.
    and let me remind u there are lots of contrary information available in the internet. Some anthropologists argue that there was nothing like aryan invasion contrary to that website that u got with google search.
    Internet websites can be wrong!!! I know many websites that are full of erraneous information. So, i will not consider those websites as a bible. Right now i am busy like hec running for my finals etc. I will 4 sure get all these journal papers and just go through the arguments that they are making
    It takes someone good like me to crack this issue
    @@hehe walrus . now ur a joker/clown
    @clown i have already addressed this issue especially the website that u are referring
    @clown yea ur are an infant/baby. Not this website. This website is doing a wonderful job uniting all thamizh/Indian people.
