Malabars
Malabars () is a term used for Indian people, Indians originating from the Malabar region. The region includes the northern part of present state of Kerala in India, i.e. the Malabar Coast, southwestern coast of the country. Captain João Ribeiro in his ''History of Ceylon'' presented to the King of Portugal in 1685 mentions that Jaffnapatam (present-day Jaffna Peninsula, Jaffna in Sri Lanka) is inhabited by Malabars. This designation stemmed from the presence of Tamils in Jaffna, whose customs and religion closely resembled those of the Hindus on the Malabar Coast of India. Additionally, to European traders and scholars, Tamil was commonly known as the Malabar language. In the 18th century, Johann Phillip Fabricius, J. P. Fabricius described his Tamil-English Dictionary as the "Dictionary of Malabar and English," wherein he explained words and phrases of the Tamil language, commonly referred to by Europeans as the Malabar language, in English. See also *Malabar district *Mal ...
