Vellayi Gopuram or the white tower (gate) is at the eastern entrance of Srirangam Temple. Srirangam is dedicated to Lord Vishnu, named as Sri Ranganathaswamy in this temple. Do make it a point to visit this gate even if you enter the Sri Ranganathasway Temple through any other gate.

Legend of Vellayi Gopuram Srirangam

The word Vellayi means white, but it also represents the name of a Devdasi who sacrificed her life to protect the idol of the temple. The story is real and not just legend locals say and interesting too.

In the year 1323, Sultanate forces from north of India invaded Sri Ranganathaswamy Temple. They looted it of its precious jewels and gold ornaments. It is said that they carried away precious jewels and gems in 20 bullock carts. However due to quick presence of mind the main idol studded with precious gems was hidden. The Sultan desperately tried to search it out. Approximately 12,000 people of Srirangam laid down their lives fighting against those Muslim forces.

They were probably remnant mauryan-s who remained behind in the drAviDa country from the days of the mauryan conquest of parts of the land. The tunnel built by the mauryans through the mountains during the invasion of the drAviDa country is spoken of with amazement in one of the earliest tamiL texts, the puranAnUru.

There were remnant mauryans in other parts of the country too.

- One of their outposts was the konkans where chandrarav had a stronghold in Javli and still retained the name of the founder of his clan in pATalIputra. Thus, one could say that the mauryan dynasty was finally ended by shivAjI when his strike killed chandrarAv.
- In the north central domain, the mauryans briefly reemerged under yashovarman as the shortly neo-mauryan empire with its capital at kAnyakubja, ruling from the panjab to va~Nga. It was destroyed by the Kashmirian emperor lalitAditya.

For close to three hundred years now the Western barbarians have rampaged on the high seas. Why are they able to enlarge their territories and fulfill their every desire? Does their wisdom and courage exceed that of ordinary men? Is their government so benevolent that they win popular support? Are their rites, music, laws, and political institutions superb in all respects? Do they possess some superhuman, divine powers? Hardly. Christianity is the sole key to their success. It is a truly evil and base religion, barely worth discussing. But its main doctrines are simple to grasp and well-contrived; they can easily deceive stupid commoners with it. Using clever words and subtle phrases, they would have commoners believe that to deceive Heaven is to revere it, and that to destroy the Way is needed for ethical understanding.

They win a reputation for benevolence by performing small acts of kindness temporarily to peoples they seek to conquer. After they capture a people's hearts and minds, they propagate their doctrines. Their gross falsehoods and misrepresentations deceive many, particularly those who yearn for things foreign. Such dupes, with their smattering of secondhand Western knowledge, write books with an air of scholarly authority; so even daimyo or high-ranking officials at times cannot escape infection from barbarian ways. Once beguiled by Christianity, they cannot be brought back to their senses. Herein lies the secret of the barbarians' success.

## Biological knowledge
Many Australian tribes thought babies resulted from reincarnation rather than sex. One tribe described how a tiny spirit would meet a woman, throw a small club at a her big toe and enter her body through the wound. (Mathews, 1900)

Merlan (1986) says some tribes understood physical paternity but that others apparently didn't. Rather than pregnancy, sex was associated with pleasure, rituals and punishment. It was also seen as the cause of female puberty and menstrual periods.

Or maybe agriculture and animal husbandry resulted in a greater understanding of sexual reproduction. No animals were ever bred or domesticated in Australia.

## Initiation sex
In Australia, sex was a part of every woman's life. Female initiation often involved sex with multiple men.

## Marriage laws
There was also a practice where a woman would be assigned a husband before she was even conceived. Assigning men unborn wives was one way. And most tribes were divided into two or more social classes (moieties) with in-class marriage punishable by death. There was also an emphasis on exogamy and obtaining wives from distant clans.

Australian tribal laws regarding social relationships and who could marry who were mind-numbingly complex. One effect was low cases of incest but I doubt that was the original reason. Like all animals, we do things instinctively that keep us alive and create healthy children. And natural selection works on cultures too. There may have been groups in Australia which allowed incest but those groups quickly died out.

## Menses
In many areas, girls didn't marry until after their first menses. But some tribes in Arnhem Land, Tiwi and central Australia believed that men having sex with their pre-pubescent wives helped induce maturation. (Merlan, 1986) +++(5)+++

## Gerontocracy
Australian tribes were gerontocracies where the elders held sway. Usually this meant the old men but old women sometimes had influence too

## Sorcery
In forager societies children were often unwanted additions. Some Australian sorcerers performed elaborate curses to make rival groups pregnant (biological paternity was not well-understood).

In Tamil movies, perversion around Brahmin women is an old phenomenon. It doesn't matter if people born into the community are involved.

- K Balachander movie Arangetram - orthodox Shastri's daughter becomes a prostitute due to poverty
- KB again in Apoorva Ragangal - older divorced Brahmin woman starts an affair with much younger man, while her daughter runs away and has an affair with the father
- Sila Nerangalil Sila Manithargal - Brahmin college girl is raped. She leaves the house, finds her rapist and becomes friends with him.
- Sirai - orthodox Shastri's wife is raped by a Christian thug. The Shastri is unable to take it and leaves her. She moves in with her rapist and eventually has a platonic relationship. The rapist is again shown in a positive light towards the end.
- Idu Namma Aalu - barbers son pretends to be a Brahmin and moves into a Brahmins house. Falls in love, marries the daughter. He finally gives a lecture to the Brahmin father on being inclusive and open minded
- Setu - stalks and kidnaps a Brahmin girl. She is supposed to fall for the protagonist upon his promise of sex and his disgust for her orthodox tuft-bearing fiancee.

The trajectory is prostitution due to poverty --> rape as a tool of conquest --> cheating and impersonation --> stalking and kidnap.

The new movies (eg. Bad Girl 2025) are a culmination of the fantasy where the Brahmin woman offers herself - the sermons about patriarchy and emancipation are just a pretext, the weakling's tool of rape.
