Iyothee Thass : ウィキペディア英語版 | Iyothee Thass
C. Iyothee Thass (20 May 1845 – 1914) was a prominent Dalit and anti-caste activist and a practitioner of Siddha medicine who is regarded as a pioneer of the Dravidian Movement. He famously converted to Buddhism and called upon the Paraiyars to do the same, arguing that this was their original religion. He also founded the Punchmar Mahajana Sabha in 1891 along with Rettaimalai Srinivasan. Punchamars are the 5th group in the varna system. "Iyothee Thass" is the most common Anglicized spelling of his name; other spellings include Pandit C. Ayodhya Dasa, C. Iyothee Doss, C. Iyodhi Doss, C. Iyothee Thoss, K. Ayōttitācar (avarkaḷ) or K. Ayōttitāsa (paṇṭitaravarkaḷ). == Early life == Iyothee Thass was born Kathavarayan on 20 May 1845 in a Tamil family from Coimbatore district. His grandfather worked for George Harrington in Ooty and little Kathavarayan profited immensely from this association. Soon, he became an expert on Tamil literature, philosophy and indigenous medicine and could speak Tamil, English, Sanskrit and Pali.〔
