Isn't Dravidian a language family (like Sino-Tibetan/Uralic) and not an ethnicity? AFAIK no South Indian empire like Rasthrakuta or Satavahan called themselves

AFAIK no South Indian empire like Rasthrakuta or Satavahan called themselves Dravidian.

- FlyingSnake 2y agoIt’s not that straightforward because every Indian is a healthy mix of ANI+ASI+. In fact there’s no ASI ancient DNA sample available annd it’s a proposed phenotype. ANI/ASI also goes thousands of years before these empires arose so again back to the original claim that none of these empires called them Dravidian.
