Answer:

The people of Coorg are possibly of Greek or Arabic descent.

As one story goes,a part of Alexander's army moved South along the coast and settled there when return became impractical.These people married amongst the locals and settled there parmanently.Their culture is evident in the martial traditions, marriage and religious rites which are distinct from Hindu mainstream.This is the story that supports the view that the people of Coorg are possibly of Greek origin.
