Tamil South Africans are Indian South Africans of Tamil descent. Tamil people form the majority of Indian immigrants who came from India to Natal, South Africa, from 1860 onwards.[1] After the expiry of their indentures most of these Indians moved to the cities, becoming established as a thoroughly urban population.[2][3]
