IT IS BELIEVED THAT KODAVU PEOPLE ARE OF ARABIC ORIGIN. IT IS SAID THAT SOME OF ALEXANDER'S ARMY MEN MOVED TO SOUTH AND SETTLED THERE. THEIR COSTUME, MARTIAL PRACTICES AND MARRIAGE RITUALS ALSO POINT TO THE FACT THAT THEY ARE FROM ARABIC ORIGIN.

Answer:
According to the author, the fiercely independent people of Coorg are descendants of Greeks or Arabs. A part of Alexander's army moved South along the coast and settled there only when they were unable to return to their country. These people married amongst the locals and their culture remains alive even to this day.
