Slightly off-topic. Ever since I came across the Proto-Zagrosian hypothesis [0] [1] and subsequent dravidian linguistics papers [2], I can’t stop looking at words like Ur and not make a mental connection. Even some of the names here sound more plausible if I mentally substitute the letters with equivalent dravidian alphabets. I was browsing Google maps around my home town and I coundn’t stop seeing the root words - Bangalore (Bangal - Ur), Mysore (Mys- Ur), Hosur (Hos - Ur), Coimbatore- (Coimbat - Ur). I have no training in linguistics so I’m going to admit that many of these are probably just words that look similar. Any dravidian linguists here want to chime in? I’m really excited to see how studies in Proto-Zagrosian evolve and what new connections we might find from it.
