Mainstream academia says that Mesopotamia was the cradle of civilization. But did you know that there are some who argue that this is a false history, and that it was in South Asia that the world’s first urban society appeared? In this video, Dr. Miano takes a deep look into the ideas presented by Hindu teacher David Frawley, who argues that the world’s greatest ancient societies are cultural descendants of India. Are his claims in keeping with the facts?

It is very difficult to be objective and neutral when it comes to Indian history and civilization. The comments is a prime example. It feel that most western scholars and historians have not quite understood the complexities or nuances of Indian culture or history but on the other hand many in India appear to be too eager to come to the conclusion that ancient Indian civilization was something so great that they are willing to sacrifice objectivity and reason to reach that conclusion. That may be from an insecurity in coming to terms with the not so glorious recent past. In any case the result is that the world had not been able to appreciate the real achievements of the Vedic or Indic civilization

Short answer: No Long answer: Yes and no. Civilization started in different places on their own. Civilization started in India the same way it started in Mesopotamia, Egypt, Mesoamerica, the Andes, or the Yellow and Yangtze Rivers (plus other small regions where civilizations of smaller size appeared). To point to a single place and say that civilization started there would be a *very* erroneous thing to do.

I think he referring to ancient history where one group excelled in recording things in writing and hence complex lifestyle emerged like trade, wars, politics etc. Humans were in every part of world around 15000 BCE (which we have evidence of from archaeological discoveries) it can go back to 20000 BCE years. But when it comes to recorded history, it only started when sumerians gave us the cuneiform. And phoenician the alphabets. Indo European languages. It doesn't matter how advanced were the civilisation. If they had poor documentation capacity which the Egyptians and sumerians excelled at. While IVC had complex societies living even larger than any civilisation at the time. It still was a large settlement and not a proper kingdom until the Chariot riding steppe people called "aryan" came. Which gave us the vedas and they were 1st orally transmitted for years before they were written into manuscripts. The Spitzer Manuscript is the oldest surviving philosophical manuscript in Sanskrit,and possibly the oldest Sanskrit manuscript of any type related to Buddhism and Hinduism discovered so far. The calibrated age by Carbon-14 technique is 130 CE (80-230 CE). So documentation came thousands of years late to Indian subcontinent and most of them a source from other civilisations. In that terms the African and middle Eastern civilisations were more advanced. In warfare and governance too.

It's utterly ridiculous to me that our model of history proposes that agriculture was invented independently on almost every continent over the last 10,000 years. We can simultaneously believe that humans have been "biologically identical" for the last 300,000. No changes in our biology, but for some reason, we collectively decide to settle down and make "civilisations" in the final 3 percent of our know history as biological humans? We're missing most of the picture

@@ArrowBast Nope, Old Testament has it that Civilisation began in Mesopotamia, so it agrees with scholarly consensus on that issue because if you read the book of Genesis, it says clearly that the Garden of Eden was watered by the rivers of Tigris and Euphrates, neither of which currently flow through Canaan but Mesopotamia. If you are an atheist attempting to say that all religions/religious texts are nonsense, that is your call but nowhere does it say in the book of Genesis that Garden of Eden where Adam and Eve were created was in Canaan, that is a strawman argument, so just clarifying that point for you.

But you cannot deny that the Book of genesis tries to fit all humans as somehow descended from Noah , but on occasion some are attributed to descend from Adam . And then again you have some text that claims all are descended from 12 tribes of israel ( which is part of Canaan) . So the Book of Genesis is actually everywhere on this subject. Other religious texts are no different in attributing all humans originating within a self referential framework and describe themselves as the purest and the other folks as degraded ones owing to some violation of laws , oaths , taboos.

He commits every sin he accuse frawley of, he presents no evidence until much later, he poisons the well by making accusations regarding motive. While frawley is pointing motives of colonialists which are not in question considering as they literally propagated the idea of white man's burden, he one accuse frwaley of being a Hindu supremacist without evidence and completely acquits western academia of Racism which is again laughable notion if you are even remotely aware of the writing produced in western universities in the field of "indology". He shows no quote where Frawley claims other people are inferior. He then misunderstands a point of Frawley by stating that applying western model of understanding to Indian texts is valid. This is a supremacist view point if there ever was one, every language and culture has it's own model and writing style by interpreting a people's writing through a different cultures yardstick the resulting understanding would be flawed. So I am sorry to say in your biased thinking you have completely missed the point he was raising. His point was western scholars interpret Indian texts through a western cultural lense rather than through an Indian cultural lense which is whom those texts were written for. Let me give you an example to make it simple, it would be like an Indian watching a westerner call his parents by their name and then make the assertion western culture is immoral and decrepit because there children disrespect their parents by calling them by their name. In India calling your parents by their name would be a gross insult but no so in the west. I hope that example helps you understand the point better. He also conveniently omit the part where there is no physical evidence for this alleged precursor language of the so called Indo-European language tree... Second you say Indo-European language theory has come under no "serious" challenge... this statement again ignores the reality that most academia is dominated by Westerners and by leftists who are ideological committed to these theories and in propagating narrative of white supremacy and oppression etc. Additionally if similarities between languages Indian language and another language means that they are the result of common ancestry then can you please he explain how Korean and Tamil both have so many similarities. Even the word for mother is the same. Tamil people look nothing like Koreans and are South Indian. Why is there no theory of Indo-Korean language tree? Or Indo-Korean people? Completely giving a pass to colonial origins of these theories which have almost no evidence backing them is the equivalent of giving a pass to Nazi race theories. Incidentally colonialists ended more lives than Nazis but since the skin color of the dead was different colonialists are not considered as bad as Nazis by westerners.

Vedas are an attempt to decipher the pre-flood world by a post-flood civilization. But the Puranas are our Itihaasas/history. The flood happened 15k bp during the younger dryas event according to star positions in Manu's story. After the flood, There were the snakes/nagas & there were the eagles/gaduras who although shared same paternal ancestry were the dasas(slaves) of the Nagas. Then they revolted and conquered the four directions (even upto eastern euro) with their 2 headed eagle emblem which became the emblem of Sri Vishnu who was the patron lord of the snakes and their ancestor. Which is why you find that emblem from Egypt to sumer, iran to euro. Many North Indian people like the Jats claim Naga lineage, while the south Indian kingdoms have the gandabarunda, two headed eagle emblem. They have a broad-er nose base meeting into a sharp and low beak like end and close-r set eyes like a bird of prey. Now you know why the euros who stumbled on it in India did everything to hide/distort it

Let me help explain, lot of text in India is based on local dialects, not everything has come out of Sanskrit and Vedas are not alone source of truth. Sanskrit was one of the most sophisticated version of languages used then. There are lot of diverse dialect in Indian sub continent and origins of that are still to debate and not clear. History has been biased on cultures and predominance. Things should not be viewed as a country here, rather how cultures evolved with time in a particular region. Though texts have revealed that science, medicines, architecture and trade were more prominent in this region and had their own forms prior to imperialistic invasions and were not properly propagated to help west agenda to systematically showcase supremacy . This caused a huge damage and loss of knowledge and further enhancements on these skills.

My understanding is that this view was embraced by some Marxists because it lined up well with their ideological beliefs about the state of nature and ideal classles societies. Of course this "Marxist" viewpoint doesn't have to be remotely true for the migration theory to be true, so it comes across as invoking guilt be association.

N Jha and S Irfan Habib The Indian Marxist movement had Heavy links with the pan Islamic movement of the late 1910s , they were never true Marxists ,in the sense that they were not atheists/religiously neutral but only wanted to ensure Russian support for the ottomans For example one of the earliest of these pseudo Marxists, Maulana Hasrat Mohani justified killing infidels as jihad in the moplah massacre (Gandhi supported such attrocities ) The(pseudo) Marxist movement in India never grew out of its Islamist roots , some of these people were active players in the partition of India And when individuals with such minsters were appointed as historians and history curriculum guides , they started to mess things up To justify Islamic iconoclasm they latched on to the Aryan invasion hypothesis, you of course mentioned in the video that the Aryan invasion hypothesis is discarded, rather there was coexistence , the reason this theory gained traction in the first place as I've learnt from reading "the mythical massacre at mohenjodaro "by George F Dales is that historians are obsessed with flashy climatic endings, in this case they made up theories of violence where there wasn't any violence These historians also used quasi mythological texts like divyadana and rajtarangini and non contemporary texts like huen tsang to propagate myths of Hindu - Buddhist violence in ancient India, Completely ignoring contemporary archaeological evidence and contemporary writers like song yun and dharmaswamin, who unlike huen tsang didn't write hearsay accounts (Huen tsang wrote hearsay accounts of sashanka and mihirakula persecuting Buddhists while song yun actually visited mihirakula, Huen tsang wrote that Mihirakula was a shaivite, this account is used by historians like Jha to prove that Hindus killed Buddhists, but Song yun wrote that Mihirkula was an atheist ) You take a look at modern india you'll get an idea of what I'm talking about , the situation is horrible, liberals would wish merry Christmas to Christians and Eid Mubarak to Muslims, but post obscene remarks and pictures especially of Hindu goddesses, a far left group even distributed pamphlets calling Durga a prostitute,then there's a right wing response to it equally abhorrent, screaming slogans of Hindu Gods in front of Muslim processions ,something similar occurs in historiography the rule of Delhi sultanate and the Mughal empire is glorified, while fake accounts are used to throw mud at ancient Indian history , in reaction to this there's people like David Frawley who're absolutely moronic as well What I mean to say is Indian historiography is stuck in a deadlock between right wing morons who believe that there was internet in Mahabharata era, and anti Hindu Islamists masquerading as communists,

35:25, cultural strength might refer to soft power and ability to "project" cultural forms in an influential way. No matter where I go in the world, I can find an American movie playing in a theater. That is incredible. This "projection power" of cultural forms can't be understated. The whole 'Indianization' of Southeast Asia occured due to the "cultural strength" of India. Societies who were newly entering a phase of agrarian-urbanization adopted the cultural forms and religion of its more established neighbor who already appeared to have "figured out" the challenges the SE Asian societies were facing.

There are many theories regarding the collapse of the IVC. I recently read about one of them. It said that the civilisation was dependant on another river apart from Indus which was rain fed and it dried up because of a gradual change in rainfall patterns. In other words, climate change was blamed to be responsible for the slow death of the big urban centres of the IVC. It said that no evidence has been found regarding a large scale military invasion around 2000-1500 BCE. Also to account for the extremely mixed genetic makeup of modern Indians, it said that that was probably the result of more peaceful mixing of cultures and migrations from West and Central Asia due to the IVC's mercantile culture. It is quite plausible as there have been several instances of migrations from those parts even during peace times for thousands of years after that. Persians, Greeks, Scythians, Kushans, Huns, Arabs, Turks, Mongols. Even the Ahom kings, who ruled most of northeastern India had their origins in southern China. So even though no evidence has been found to support the AIT, it is still a bit rich to assume that the Indian civilization is pure and has had no outside influence.

World of Antiquity and Pramaganda is not Sanskrit really? It is the name of king of kikatas which is another tribe. Only because the kikatas were fighting Sudhas so that make them non-Aryans as per Witzel. Well this seems like a scholarly work. Since when Arya is a race. The tribe already have names such as Sudhas, Purus, Anus, Drihyus and Kikata are also same like them. Just because Sudhas are more Noble men it doesn’t mean that their race is now “Noble” Arya is not a race. This is the biggest flaw in this whole thing to start with. About the other words Phala = profit or reward or fruit Pippala = pippal tree it’s 100m away from my house. Tilvila = fertile How come these are non-Sanskrit. I understand why Witzel has such a bad reputation among Indian scholars. We should give him a Noble prize and Witzel will call it “Arya” prize and may reject it because he is not aryan race. I am just using Witzel’s logic though. 😅😁

I have one comment about the migration map you show at 16-17 min. In the paper it says path taken to migrate into India is not clear. Why? - We are already told that "Sarasvati has also been identified with the Helmand or Haraxvati river in southern Afghanistan, the name of which may have been reused in its Sanskrit form as the name of the Ghaggar-Hakra river, after the Vedic tribes moved to the Punjab. To be consistent is not necessary to provide Genetic evidence along the same path. Or it is ok to say linguistic migrations happen thru Afghanistan and Genetic migration happened thru SWAT valley. Linguists claim that the word like Bija(seed) is picked up in BMAC complex by migrating Aryans. No genetic evidence in BMAC that they passed thru it? (Paper says migrations bypassed it). And once Aryans reached India, Indians started to use farming related substrate Aryan words by abandoning earlier words? Which model explains this?

And researchers acknowledge there is no concrete proof yet. Here is quote from Vagheesh M. Narasimhan paper additional material - Modern Indian Cline is a mixture between a point on the Indus Periphery Cline (the ASI) and a ghost population that once existed on the Steppe Cline, which we haven’t directly sampled but which we hypothesize existed in the Late Bronze Age and Iron Age in northwestern South Asia (but not in the Swat Valley which is the only place that we have extensively sampled).

Dr.Miano got confused with two things here 1) How the church used so called Aryan invasion 2) How the historians (leftist historians) used the AIT theory to their own selfish conclusions. They continued to teach this to Indian students until 1990s that Aryans invaded India and Indra their god destroyed cities and they were having blond hair - blue eyed. Yes, Hindus started to protest this and the leftist historians now changed their narrative to mainly linguistics the subject that was I believe coined based on the Sanskrit language studies by Indian authors of the ancient period. What do Vedas tell us? were they written outside or inside India? the latter holds true. The river Sarswati that was discredited by the historians as mythical turned out to be real as was described in Rigveda and Mahabharatha. WHAT WAS MAINSTREAM IN 18th century IS NOT MAINSTREAM IN 1900 AD AND AGAIN IT IS NOT THE MAINSTREAM IN 20th century, BUT IN Each century the narrative that went against majority Indian view remained the mainstream! Genetic studies can go either way. The AIT Narrative always prefers European centric model so at least some papers concludes with migration of languages bla, bla..."The major paternal lineages of Indians, represented by Y chromosomes, are haplogroups R1a1, R2, H, L and J2, all common in modern day West-Eurasians, such as Middle Easterners and Europeans, as well as O-M175, common among East and Southeast Asians. Some researchers have argued that Y-DNA Haplogroup R1a1 (M17) is of autochthonous South Asian origin. However, proposals for a Central Asian/Eurasian steppe origin for R1a1 are also quite common and supported by several more recent studies.

Look up Atlantis and Jambudweepa's descriptions, concentric seas, 7 islands, 9 kingdoms, mountains on the north, oblong plain in the south surrounded by two coastal mountains in the east and west and even the length and breadth of the central island! India used to be called Jambudweep/berry island! But how can India be an island? Unless sea level was at least 200m higher, which apparently it was according to Exxon Petroleum company's past sea level calculations! Now go check out Indian peninsular mountains and plateaus & river valleys. Plato's twins Atlas and Gadeirus or was that Arun and Gadura? Gadura did launch a campaign upto Euro!

The flood happened 15k bp during the younger dryas event according to star positions in Manu's story. After the flood, There were the snakes/nagas & there were the eagles/gaduras who although shared same paternal ancestry were the dasas(slaves) of the Nagas. Then they revolted and conquered the four directions (even upto eastern euro) with their 2 headed eagle emblem which became the emblem of Sri Vishnu who was the patron lord of the snakes and their ancestor. Which is why you find that emblem from Egypt to sumer, iran to euro. Many North Indian people like the Jats claim Naga lineage, while the south Indian kingdoms have the gandabarunda, two headed eagle emblem. They have a broad-er nose base meeting into a sharp and low beak like end and close-r set eyes like a bird of prey. Now you know why the euros who stumbled on it in India did everything to hide/distort it

the indo-European languages and the cultures that spoke them created civilizations that were more sophisticated, more successful, and more widespread than the other languages you mentioned. these are just facts, and in no way am I implying anything but that they are different. or that these differences were always this way in the past or will be in the future. I'm also not sure if civilization was started in one place and spread out, or sprang up independently in various places at various times. but the Indian civilization was one of the greatest, first or otherwise. I have a feeling that civilization, or at least human developments to lead to civilizations will be found to be much older than I was taught at the end of the 20th century. there are songs that sing of ancient times, when bread was first invented, back in the early sumerian times.

He commits every sin he accuse frawley of, he presents no evidence, he poisons the well by making accusations regarding motive. While frawley is pointing motives of colonialists which are not in question considering as they literally propagated the idea of white man's burden, he one accuse frwaley of being a Hindu supremacist without evidence and completely acquits western academia of Racism which is again laughable notion if you are even remotely aware of the writing produced in western universities in the field of "indology". He then misunderstands a point of Frawley by stating that applying western model of understanding to Indian texts is valid. This is a supremacist view point if there ever was one, every language and culture has it's own model and writing style by interpreting a people's writing through a different cultures yardstick the resulting understanding would be flawed. So I am sorry to say in your biased thinking you have completely missed the point he was raising. His point was western scholars interpret Indian texts through a western cultural lense rather than through an Indian cultural lense which is whom those texts were written for. Let me give you an example to make it simple, it would be like an Indian watching a westerner call his parents by their name and then make the assertion western culture is immoral and decrepit because there children disrespect their parents by calling them by their name. In India calling your parents by their name would be a gross insult but no so in the west. I hope that example helps you understand the point better. He also conveniently omit the part where there is no physical evidence for this alleged precursor language of the so called Indo-European language tree... Second you say Indo-European language theory has come under no "serious" challenge... this statement again ignores the reality that most academia is dominated by Westerners and by leftists who are ideological committed to these theories and in propagating narrative of white supremacy and oppression etc. Additionally if similarities between languages Indian language and another language means that they are the result of common ancestry then can you please he explain how Korean and Tamil both have so many similarities. Even the word for mother is the same. Tamil people look nothing like Koreans and are South Indian. Why is there no theory of Indo-Korean language tree? Or Indo-Korean people? Completely giving a pass to colonial origins of these theories which have almost no evidence backing them is the equivalent of giving a pass to Nazi race theories. Incidentally colonialists ended more lives than Nazis but since the skin color of the dead was different colonialists are not considered as bad as Nazis by westerners.

No disrespect idk how much you know about Indian history...aryan invasion was purley coined by linguistic basis (no archiological sites in india have found change in culture and habitation and mostly all archiological sites lie on the same lines of the vedic lands or land described in vedas)in vedas the founder of similarities among sanskrit,Greek,latin was William Jones in 1780 wheeler continued it and coined aryan invasion after finding of Harappa and mohenjodaro he said Aryans came and destroyed cities but he couldn't provide single remains of Aryans (i.e their weapons,where they destroyed in Harappa and mohenjodaro,what cattle the brought with them what kind of weapons they had etc ) but he just proposed in thin air and all accepted and later a proto indo europian language has coined who were thy which language they spoke it is even absurd they even cannot provide any archiological proof of proto indo europian (they are only depended on genetics, language). 1) u mentioned that there are more non vedic names in Vedas plz refer 'shrikant talegeri' he has clearly discussed about linguistic argument put up by supporters of Aryan invasion..(though iam not a scholar but one of mr.shrikants view is very correct i.e if Aryans brought veda from outside then why veda starts from central India to westwards logically if we go from point A to B we mark the things what we see from A to B not vica versa) in Vedas all rivers have the same name of today (some rivers have many names or changed due to many invasions but many have same all majority linguistis accept it the problem was only with saraswati river and geological finds shows that the river existed but due to earthquake the river changed its course and slowly the saraswati river get extinct but now the river beds have been found) 2)yes now people call it as Aryan migration theory but can migrants change the whole culture and language of a civilization?(the pro Aryan invasion ppl say that migration happned in small pockets) but no archiological evidence is there for migration i.e change in (material culture,food grain etc) but there are for others i.e Zoroastrian etc 3) recent dna study which was published in cell shows that agriculture was developed in india by the natives it has not come from other people. 4) dna from rakhighari (one of indus site) matched with 11 people who were outliers [Gonur (3) and Shahr-i-Sokhta (8)] which means indus people were travelling to those areas for business. 5) according to neeraj rai( one who was part of those rakhighari dna findings)r1a dna origins in india because it has a lot of diversity in india he is working on those paper so he said we have to wait for the papers to be out but he is 100% sure that r1a is indian earlier study's lacked dna samples he said that new 10000 samples are collected and analysis is in final stage..he further says we find steppe dna at 1200 bc (wait what avast of Iranians was 1500 bc so vedas must be older than that right no admixture in dna till 1200 bc vedas generally accepted timeline 1800 bc how?? Even that steppe dna is very low which cannot change the whole civilization) 6)Aryan invasion/migration theory is politically motivated. students still study it as invasion and on basis of that politics is played (some political people want to keep it alive to divide like the Brits used i.e aryan/Dravidian,brahmin/dalit.etc) AIC played a great role in colonial era to divide people in india i.e aryan and Dravidian. 7)Aryan invasion led to german nationalism which led to ww2.hitler was gathering all his ancestors (aryans) knowledge and was trying to construct weapons of distructon(i.e oppenhimer,einstine) Iam not saying there was no admixture of people at all yes there may be how come u do international trade and don't have admixture in population or exchange of language but that doesn't mean that the knowledge Vedas have and the greatness of indus vally had, is brought by some white haired blue eyed person ..ty

Hi Rock King. Thank you for your thoughtful comments. Since you put in the effort to engage with the topic critically, the least I can do is give your 7 points a fair response. 1) I will look into Talegeri's arguments. Thank you for the reference. I do not believe that Aryans brought the Vedas into India, nor do I think most historians believe that. Their position is that SOME of the hymns of the Rig Veda had already been composed orally before entrance into India, but that most of the Vedas were composed within India. I talk about the Sarawati in my Part 2 video. 2) Historians today do not believe that the Aryans radically changed the culture of India. They believe only that they had an influence. That's all. 3) Yes, I mentioned this in both of my videos. 4) Yes, I am sure foreigners visited and even resided in the Indus Valley Civilization. 5) I look forward to reading the results of the new DNA study and comparing it with the others. 6) The Out-of-India theory has been used politically too. But that doesn't matter. How a historical event is used politically has no bearing on whether the event is true. For example, here in the US, people point out crimes committed by immigrants in order to further a political agenda to keep immigrants out of the country. But just because these events are twisted and used politically, that doesn't mean immigrants never committed crimes. 7) Yes, people have interpreted history for evil purposes. But see #6 above. I should add that no historian today believes that the Aryans who migrated into India were blond-haired, blue-eyed Europeans.

Thanks for ur reply...as i said there is no archiological evidence what so ever which states that some buch of people came and settled in Harappan sites it is clearly siad by indian archiologist Dr Vasant Shinde (he also said that there are enough archiological evidences that show thet there is cultural continuity and the indus sites dates back to 8000 bc or so he even clearly said that the pots made by locals today are much similar to what the harappans used to do people use the same (traditional) agriculture techniques that were used to do in those time ) yes many people in India misinterpert out of India as everything is done by india i don't mean that what i mean and many of Indic scholars here belive that indus civilization had a good strong base in trade coz they traded many things with many countries and they have to be travellers and definitely they have met many people and they have left some imprint there and took some with tem including knowledge and admixture of population.that also dosen't mean some blocks of people came and persuaded local people to change their culture and religion etc (like the migration theory states) 1)i didn't say that we have found outliers in indus i said we have confirmed that the outliers burial found in saher e sokhta is of harappans that means harappans used to travel for trade (it proves the point) 2) it is generally accepted by scholar's that where there is many diversity then that thing may be native to that place i.e as apple is native to America coz Wu find huge variety of apples and as above u said for r1a that central Asia has most diversity do it belongs to central Asia (although i said in my above comment r1a belongs to india as per neeraj rai)but u r not ready to accept the same (saying quantity dosen't mean anything but as we all know to get knowledge we have to spend a lot of time and resources i.e money, it means that some people have spent a lot of time gathering that knowledge there is a simple misunderstanding among pro AIT supporters they are in a hurry that's why they say Aryans came and wrote all the quality and quantity of litrature in some centuries and changed culture it's not as simple as that some people were giving their precious time to think, what we call such people today scholar's oh yes and what requires to be a best scholar huge resources (money ease of acess to many things etc)yes sir quantity of litrature does play a huge role in a civilization it's not like litrature is produced in thin air like pro AIT theorists claim and we have to consider the time when these litrature are written considering that yes quantity of litrature definitely matters) conclusion for litrature there is no diversity in litrature (in indo europian language family as it is in india )not ony spoken language diversity but litreture too (most of the indo europian language are spoken in india)yes u may be right a small country like iseral write a whole bibel (the bhagwad gita itself 5 times larger than Bible and 10 times larger than odyssey) plz provide a place if u know where such huge diversity in language (of indo europian family has).the problem is that most Pro AIT people cannot provide archiological evidence and pin point a place of proto indo europian language..(it is comman knowledge that a lier always change his statement) i know that new evidence changes interpretation but not drastically(and additional info:the litrature we have today is just remains of what Islamists did to Takshila and nalanda University and Brits stole it to their British liabrary and many Brits stole for their private collection including their loot of wealth and some of them even fled to us so that they don't have to share with the throne).. 1) again sarasvati of vedas is saraswati which got extinct in india coz saraswati of Afghanistan dosen't have ganga,Yamuna,near to it and there must be many indus cities on its banks of if it was that saraswati (the cities found by archiologist on the banks of saraswati river are many more in number and are also older than Harappa and mohenjodaro) 2)once again according to Dr Shinde there are no material culture found in archiological sites but he said we find changes when Persian people come to india for Asylum (Zoroastrian)they have found material change they brought with them but we not find any footprints of Aryans.he also added in later periods(later period of Harappa and mohenjodaro) we had good relations with Iran obviously it was our neighbour and we have some exchanges with them but definitely they were no Aryans. 3)the iron making in india dates back to 1900bc which was found recently. 4)u said that Aryans came and wrote vedas in india generally accepted dates of vedas 1800 bc it means that Aryans may have came to india 200/400years ago may be coz they have to travel all land(to describe it in vedas) and change beliefs of people etc and to rank up to become aristocrat so that all people follow them (obviously no one will follow silently to anyone by merely saying hi i have came here to change your beliefs)so according to that they may have come to indus/india in 2000/2200 bc but as i said as per Dr neeraj rai there is no such extent of admixture in population in dna studies that support such a thing.and about black and white colour (it is also possible as we already know harappans were travellers for trade they may have taken a foreign spouse and the colour geonome may have introduced to indus (just assuming because if tehre is no proof then anything is possible as u said) the same que was asked to neeraj rai he said genome which changes colour of people it's complex to discribe it coz there are many reasons. 5)ashva or horses have mentioned in vedas again and again and many say where are the horses according to neeraj rai they have found horse remains in rajasthan (Himalayan pony)and they are studying it and they are sure that it's domesticated and was used by harappans (earlier a horse bone was found in archiological sites and famous Hungarian archaeozoologist Sándor Bökönyi seen tem and said that the remains are of horse many pro AIT theorists asked him to review but he stick to his stand)and those horese are same as described in vedas. 6) let's revisit AIT ...... William Jones found similarities in sanskrit, greek,roman they were some words (ref.talageri if i remember correctly they were some 8/10 wordes which are very comman words like,night,foot etc)it attracted more indologists to study sanskrit (obviously they had more resources to support them and still now where local indians were ignorant and still are)so they found mittani and Hittite people yes but they didn't spoke aryan language but they had only aryan names(Aryans lost their language coming to india)then we found Avesta of Zarathustra and many concluded finally we found that Aryans came to india but they forgot to analyse the time line i.e it is generally accepted that Rigveda is the oldest (it has three mandalas which are late addition)all the Hittite, mittani and Avesta has is later basic names for people and places so once again misinterpertion ...the hymn of mandala 7 hymn no 89 read shri arabindo's translation it's different..many foreigners mis interpret many hyms and translated vedas i.e as u took of Griffith.. there is word by word translation done by kant Singh plz refer to that where he shows how misinterpretation led to divide in india in caste and aryan/Dravidian (the dasyus) and a wresten scholar while reading vedas once read one word incorrectly and changed all meaning (the hymn was for ritual relating to widows which stated widow has to sit next the body and apply ghee to her eyes to mosturize it and again take her place in world but that scholar translated one word agreya as agnaiya which translated as the widow has to burned when she mosturized her eye it was something like that )..that is why many indian scholar's are now writing translations.that is one of the reason we r fed up of narrow view of western and some Marxist scholars in india.why i hold western scholars more responsible ex:the current numeral system is indian which was translated by some arab scholar the western scholars named algorithms after the arab scholar's name and totally ignored that scholars title of translation hisab al hind (even now people say arabic numerals and above all that western scholars were not ready to acknowledge those as indian numerals in this decade some people have accepted it ..ref.Dr C K Raju) 7)many calander systems were used by india yes sidereal is still bing used over and above the Julian calander forced by our government on us (as well known mathematician Dr C K Raju Julian calander is inaccurate..iam no scholar /don't have any knowledge of that) I am very much aware that indus people while trading many people also visited indus civilization that's why i said international trade of that time definitely they had exchange of knowledge, people etc ...once again that dosen't prove Aryans came to india and vedic knowledge is not indian ...ty

Hi Rock King. It's hard to read your comment, because there are very few grammatical marks (no periods at all), but I will try to respond as best as I can understand you. In regard to your first two points: 1) All historians accept the fact that the Harappans traded with other countries and had immigrants living in their culture. 2) Although there are many dialects in India based on Sanskrit, there is not much diversity of the Indo-European dialects. This means that the majority of Indian dialects all come from Sanskrit, which is only one tiny part of the Indo-European language family. There is more diversity of Indo-European languages outside of India. In regard to your seven other points: 1) I am not aware of any pre-Harappan cities on the Saraswati. Could you point them out to me? 2) If you show me where to find the article by Dr. Shinde, I will read it. But let me say that we do have a very important footprint left by the Aryans: the Vedas. We know the Aryans from their language. 3) Are you talking about evidence of iron smelting? Or are you just talking about finding an iron artifact? Remember, the Harappans traded with other countries, so an iron object could have been imported. We need to see evidence of iron-making in India in order to know that they had the technology. One way is by finding iron smelting furnaces, and another is by finding a whole bunch of indigenous iron artifacts. 4) I don't understand how you can say that people of other colors could have come into India, but not people with different DNA. Different colors ARE different DNA. Also, different peoples would have had different languages. 5) I have not heard of any horse remains other than a possible tooth. Could you show me where to find these evidences, so that I can look at them? 6) It is hard to understand what you are saying here, because the whole paragraph is only one sentence. I am sure that there have been many bad English translations made, especially in the 19th century. But what does that have to do with Aryan migration? (By the way, no one believes in an AIT anymore. They believe in an AMT. So from now on, say AMT.) 7) I have no argument with that. I said in my video only that the Vedas do not use a sidereal calendar. I have a question for you: Why is it so important to you that the Aryans did not come into India from elsewhere? What is so upsetting about that?

You don't do that by leaning head first into fundementalism. also--Marx was an economist and philosopher why would anyone value his particular interpretation of Indian civilization as fact when he's talking about economics not history.

If you read Indian history the criticism of Marxist interpretation would make more sense. There is a prevalent reading of Hinduism and Hindu social order from Marxist lens. Marxist peer review circle has created a historical narrative that doesn't hold up to a data based reading. These historical narratives still inform policy formation in India, which it certainly should not. Only rationalism and data based decision making should be accepted.

So scholars may have moved on but not south Indian politicians. There are huge Number of people who still believe AIT and it's still taught in schools. Which says north Indian are aryans who invaded and Drawidian(south Indian) were whi got pushed all way to the coasts were original inhabitants of indus valley civilization.

Nayan , you should not post in haste. Take the time to EDIT and remove errors of grammar, and spellings. A sloppy post is pointless.
