Sanskrit roots of pure tamil words!!!

I have read Aurobindo's one particular statement wherein he has stated that both Tamil and Sanskrit descended from a common source,,,,he has told that certain missing links in sanskrit he has found them in Tamil.
I sometimes think that it could be true,,,in srilanka great fight was for 'sri' or 'thiru'..thinking that thiru is a pure tamil word,,,
but 'thiru' has its root in the vedic sanskrit word 'thri' or 'thra' ,, the word thrisulam denotes a sacred thing ,not thirisulam,,
even the word tamil is from dravid which is a sanskrit word.
The earliest Tamil grammar work as per legends is 'agathiam',,,which got its name from the word 'agasthyah'which is again sanskrit.
The other known and prevalent oldest Tamil grammar book is 'thol kappiyam',,,again 'kappiyam' is a degraded form of 'kavya' again a sanskrit word.
The Tamil works speak of three sangams,,,,again a sanskrit word meaning'meeting'.
The Sangam works hailed throughout the world are 'purananooru' and 'agananooru',,,,again sanskrit words puram and aham.
Could it be that Tamil is a degenerated form of Sanskrit or if Aurobindo's statement that both had some common ancestor be true??
(I here recollect one age old tamil legend which states that both sanskrit and tamil came out from the two sides of Shiva's udukkai-damaru in sanskrit.)

The "valluvar" caste (a dalit caste of tamilnadu to which thiru valluvar belonged)was reciting a portion of the vedas and was wellversed in sanskrit even when britishers came...
"valluvars" are mentioned as oldest "kudi" by silappathikaram and the marriage of kannaki with kovalan is announced by a 'valluvan'on an elephant...this means the oldest tamil race itself was aryan or sanskrit based one...
