[edit] Tulu Script
Tulu language possessed its own script before Malayalam script existed.Malayalam script developed from Tulu script as the language predates Malayalam by more than a thousand years. The Tulu priests who went south carried mantras written in Tulu script to Kerala. It is clearly proved by scholars, who are well versed in Tulu and Malayalam language and literature, that it is the Tuluvas who contributed a script for Malayalam which has no script until the Tulu Brahmins’ arrival in Kerala. In fact, the present Malayalam script is nothing but the modified Tulu script.
Thunchaththu Ramanujan Ezhuthachan states created the Modern Malayalam Alphabet based on Grantha script with some dravidian aphabets native to Malayalam. Malayalam was written with Vatteluttu, Grantha before the modern Malaylam script evolved. for Malayalam which has no script until the Tulu Brahmins is completely wrong. Please add some strong to prove that Malayalam Script evolved from Tulu Script and re-insert the paragraph
Infact the beginning of the article says that it is safe to conclude that Tulu language evolved a script of and borrowed it from Malayalam language. Which results in self-contradiction.Vinodh.vinodh (talk) 13:57, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
