vadivEl, you must understand the tamil's mind. emmadhamum sammadhamnu vera evanum sonnadhu illa.
we are totally open minded and accept everything and everyone, including gods.
we even accept past human beings as gods.
Never argue with a fool or he will drag you down to his level and beat you at it through sheer experience!

I think.. Amarakosam itself is very old. In tamil kanda puranam is relatively new. And thats again originally written in sanskrit only.
IMHO Karthik is the orginal and Murugan is the modified and refined version.

In Telugu, "murupu" means "tender beauty" or "grace". This would obviously place his roots quite firmly amongst Tamils.
Iravatham Mahadevan takes a different view of the etymology of "Murukan". As a result, he interprets one of the signs from the Indus Valley corpus as being a reference to Murukan, which would make his worship an
extremely ancient tradition of the ancestors of the Tamils. See:

Interesting.
Nk. mural: to wither.
Kur. murdna: to be dried to excess.
Ga. murg: to bend; murgen: bent; murug: to bend down.
Go. moorga: humpbacked
Kui. mrupka: to kill, murder.
Malt. murke: to cut into bits.
What languages are these ?
Ta. murukku: to destroy, kill; murunku : to be destroyed.
Ta. murancu: to be old, ancient; muri: antiquity.

So take everything there with a huge helping of salt.
