The earliest epigraphic records found on rock edicts and hero stones date from around the 3rd century BC.More than 55% of the epigraphically inscriptions (about 55,000) found by the Archaeological Survey of India are in the Tamil language. The two earliest manuscripts from India, acknowledged and registered by UNESCO Memory of the World Register in 1997 and 2005, were in Tamil.

The earliest records in Old Tamil are short inscriptions from around the 2nd century BC in caves and on pottery. These inscriptions are written in a variant of the Brahmi script called Tamil Brahma. The earliest long text in Old Tamil is the Tolkappiyam, an early work on Tamil grammar and poetics, whose oldest layers could be as old as the 1st century BC.
