  • The Changing Identities of the Tamil Muslims from the Coromandel Coast to Malaysia: an Etymological Analysis
    The Changing Identities of the Tamil Muslims from the Coromandel Coast to Malaysia: An Etymological Analysis Shaik Abdullah Hassan Mydin1 and Mohammed Siraaj Saidumasudu2 1School of Distance Education Studies Universiti Sains Malaysia, Jalan Minden, 11800 Penang, Malaysia 2Ministry of Education of Malaysia Keywords : Tamil Muslim, Identities, Etymological, Malaysia Abstract: The Tamil Muslims of the Coromandel Coast, South India are people whose trading networks were founded in the prominent port cities located within South India as well South East Asia. In the context of the Malay world, these traders and merchants engaged uncommercial intercourse with the region since the 8th century C.E. They became well-established and known among both locals and the Europeans with certain unique characteristics which evolved periodically in South India as well as South East Asia. Designations towards Tamil Muslims - such as Yavana, Sonakar, Anjuvanam, Chuliar, and Thulukkar - evolved periodically and in parallel to historical developments as well as demographical changes in South India. In contrast, within Malaysia, terms such as Keling, Chulia, and Mamak are made in reference to this community. Some of these terms are predominantly used in Malaysia, which may have derogative connotations and are often misunderstood by local Malaysians. 1 INTRODUCTION (Bayly, 1989:86).
