On the lack of archaeological evidence of an Aryan invasion in India
Bronze Age Pervert
:
i think it's the weather in part, but also that in india the invading population was so far outnumbered by the natives. there is no question that there was an invasion though and that they came through mesopotamia, they had a layover there. there is strong linguistic evidence for this. there are also people with aryan names and gods in 1500 BC near east. the ruler of hebron,e.g., is named shuwardata which is the same as vedic "suryadata," "sun-given"; there are loads of names like this though...mitanni rulers with names indaruta, identical to the vedas, etc., plus they worshiped same deities. not to speak of evidence from the vedas, etc.; indians reject aryan invasion theory because it would have bad political implications for them, and because they like to imagine that IE languages spread from india, for which there is no evidence
