The pre-Dravidian aborigines were the original inhabitants of India. Then Dravidian people became the prominent race. The population of India was Drividian until around 1,500 BCE when the Aryans migrated into India, through the Himalayas. Dravidian culture is one of the oldest surviving cultures in the world. It's characterized by its distinct languages, art, architecture, and social structures. The Dravidians are thought to have built the Indus Valley Civilization. Indo-European speakers, referred to as Aryans, migrated into the Indian subcontinent, displacing or assimilating the indigenous Dravidian cultures.
