Part 13 - Hypothese of Limoria in India

In 1864, Philip Sclater, an English explorer, assumed a submerged earth link between India, Madagascar and continental Africa. The name given to this land has been submerged because the conceptual context has tried to explain the presence of limor monkeys (strepsirrhinni) on this earth, three pieces. This concept, before being improperly held by continental drift theory, was supported and presented by a number of researchers and presented to Indian proponents in a natural geography book published in 1873 by Henry Francis Blanford, stating that the earth mass was submerged by volcanic activity during the age Cretaceous.^[1] In the late 1870s, Amoria's theory was his first supporter in Tamil Nadu, where the leaders of the Theosophical Society based in Adyar, wrote about it (Ramaswamy, 2004, p. 99) (Henry Francis Blanford (1874)). Richard S. Weiss, January 22, 2009), (Ramaswamy 2004, p.55). Local Tamil scientists began to discuss the concept of a Tamil homeland soaked in the late 1890s by Nallasami J. Pillay, in 1898, the journal published literary information in the philosophical and literary Siddhanta Debica (Truth of Light), where he wrote while mentioning the lost continent theory in the Indian Ocean ). That the myths of the Tamils foreshadow the floods that destroyed the literary works produced during the ancient blood. Although, according to him, "no serious historical or scientific basis was found" (Nallasami Pillai, J. 1898) (Ramaswamy 2004, p.103).^[2]
