In 3000 years of Iran history, it was always used as “aryan people” or “aryan lineage” and other ethnic groups like Turks are referred to as “Aniran” meaning non-aryan, but now these guys claim it has nothing to do with race….
Of course ppl never considered themselves racial groups, considering thats an 18/19th Century term, and etnos or ethnicity was specifically a Greek word synonymous with natos or [born of] nationality that migrated into European language. But Id like to see these guys explain the blondism and blue eyed caricatures of personages from India (incl Buddha) to predynastic red headed Egyptians like the mummy referred to as "Ginger" and statues of ruling elites of Egypt who had blue eyes, when Blue eyes is a recessive trait that emerged proto Indo European peoples around the Black Sea approx 6-8000 years bpe. Protip you cant do it. Blondism and Red hair are purely N. European traits and Blue eyes was a trait the expanded out from a single PIE mating pair. All the wordplay in the world cant dismiss the fact that IE peoples from N. India/Pakistan/Kaffiristan to Iran to N. Africa to Europe are all from one shared lineage and were at least part of the ruling classes of all the relevant nations of history. We are brothers and sisters.
I think they had a concept of race, but otherwise true and true. Modern genetics has proven the migration of fair haired blue eyed ppl from the Eurasian steppe. Also, Aryan refers to the people of the age of Aries. Atlantian descendants.
@@NegativeBodhiImage the mummies with red hair is a result of tobacco that they use during the mummification process. Nothing to do with European or caucasians
@@NegativeBodhiImage blue eyes and lighter skin are not characteristic or exclusivity of Europeans. Stop being manipulated by racist uncultured scientists and Eurocentric enterprises
But it have matters with slavs,since aryans are slavic people.And this SAMA chanel is lying to you,just like other 'history chanels'.I know that some people don't know this,but its been proven long time ago,than aryans are slavs who has come to india in 8000BC.They just don't want you to know real truth,so wake up man.
Irony: one of the ethnic groups persecuted, and murdered by the supposedly "pure Aryan" Natzis were the Romani aka "Gypsies", who were actually an lndo-Aryan group.
Not really. The people who originally invented the Aryan term and identity were almost certainly the Andronovo people, who were genetically European. These people then mixed with the Bactria-Margiana Archeological Complex(BMAC) and this mixed group then invaded Iran and the Indus Valley
@@alexdunphy3716 That's a misinformed opinion. First of all saying Andronovo were "European" is wrong to start with. Yes, they shared huge genetic similarity with Corded Ware Culture of Europe, but neither of them had any common understanding of "Europeaness" it's like saying Yamnaya were Siberian, cuz they derived a huge part of their ancestry from Ancestral North Eurasians. The European identity is a modern construct, not applicable to these ancient people. Secondly, it's not certain if or not Andronovo themselves started calling themselves Aryans before they started migrating south towards BMAC. It's equally plausible that they came with this whole idea of Aryan identity after migrating into BMAC, when they mixed with the Iran-Chalcolithic Farmers of Oxus civilization (who's land they inhabited) infact Andronovo Homeland was itself situated over the Oxus Homeland which means there was mixing even before their migration southwards, Eastern sites of Andronovo show even mixing with East Eurasian populations. Finally, there's no evidence of any large scale "invasion" of Indus Valley Civilization (peaking arounf 2000 BCE), infact it was already mostly gone by the time Indo-Aryans migrated into India (1500 BCE). Hence it is more plausible that the process was more of a migration (settlement with no major aim of subjugation, with possible minor skirmishes here and there) rather than full on invasion .
@@alexdunphy3716 Nope, Aryan Haplogroup is exclusively R1a1a, there's almost 0 evidence of R1b being present in either Andronovo or even Sintashta. R1b is not related to Indo-Iranians at all.
This is precisely why I believe Ancient history is so vital in our elementary schools, and should be presented in depth, and not simply skipped over in one or two chapters (paragraphs). Young people want and need to know who they are, and where they came from, and, that they all have value. And "Value" is not dictated by skin color.
I believe your right ,but this guy is teaching somthing that is not Accurate,,The Real Aryan Writings Are so hard to get ,,from Sumerian Times ,,it's the Actual Begining Race of white people ,,,I came across some of this stuff on the computer,wi
The Aryan invasion theory into India has been debunked maybe you should consider the out of India theory which they're trying to hide & do have evidence one being the DNA marker of European House mice which comes from India & we all know where caravans of people go their animals follow too!!!
The word āryan is often found in Hindu, Buddhist, and Jain texts. In the Indian spiritual context, it can be applied to Rishis or to someone who has mastered the four noble truths and entered upon the spiritual path.
The title of the video is a little misleading, it was more about the debunking of aryan invasion and the unfortunate marring of the study of aryans by 20th C race politics. There is however a lot that wasn’t discussed, like the actual evidence of Aryan origins and migration, since they did actually exist. Didn’t talk about linguistic origins and data. And then at the end made the suggestion that everyone can be aryan regardless of skin colour. That seems silly to me, why do people need to be called aryan to be considered noble or civilised or cultured? I got so confused at that point and started to think this was actually more a polemic in favour of a certain political position, especially given the misleading title. Bit of a shame because the aryans are such an interesting and influential group.
Aryan Invasion Theory has been debunked. You're right, it's because of the "race politics" that this identity was thrust upon the people of the Indian subcontinent.
@@jimhalpert3269 Who debunked it? Do you understand that there are people in India who have blonde hair and blue eyes and who live up around the Himalayas, these are not people who descended from the British occupation. These are organic Indians. The _Kalash_ people of Pakistan are ideal Hitler Aryans, they all have blonde hair and blue eyes and they worship the ancient Indian gods.
@Amal Paniker "Thou Indra, art destroyer of the cities, the slayer of the Dasyus, the prosperer of man, the lord of the skies" Rig Veda VIII- 87.6 "Indra, the slayer of Vrittra, the destroyer of cities, has scattered the Dasyu hosts sprang from a black womb." Rig Veda II 20.6 The Rig Veda praises the god who "destroyed the Dasyans and protected the Aryan color". Rig Veda III 34.9 It goes on to thank the god who "bestowed on his white friends the fields, bestowed the sun, bestowed the water". Rig Veda I 100.18 "Indra protected in battle the Aryan worshiper, he subdued the lawless for Manu, he conquered the black skin" "Black skin is impious" Rig Veda II 12.4 "One car-wheel of the sun thou rollest forward , and one thou settest free to roll for Kutsa. Thou slewest noseless Dasyus with thy weapon" Rig Veda V 29.10 "Active and bright have they come forth, impetuous in speed like bulls, driving the black skin far away" Rig Veda IX 41.1 "With him too is this rain of him that comes like herds: Indra throws drops of moisture on his yellow beard. When the sweet juice is shed he seeks the pleasant place, and stirs the worshiper as wind disturbs the wood." Rig Veda X 23.4 "At the sweet draft the Soma-drinker waxed in might, the iron one with yellow beard and yellow hair, he will bear his bay steeds over all distress". Rig Veda X 96.8 "He hath slayed Dasyus after his wont, and laid them low with arrows. The mighty thunderer with his fair-complexioned friends won the land, the sunlight, and the waters." Rig Veda I 100.18
I was looking for a lot of similar information and sort of disappointed at its absence too. There’s a UA-cam channel that shares mythology and history including Indian history and it actually sites the invasion theory and even connects that to the foundation of caste. So I wanted to see what other information was available about “Aryan people”. I think this video is useful in a completely different way. Racism, white supremacy, and European influence can be observed in most parts of the world and to think that the misinterpretation of Vedic texts can be considered one of its roots is astounding to me. I feel more inclined to learn about India because of how much it’s indirectly impacted the world in this dimension.
Sure, I guess. But there's undeniable genetic research that contradicts some of the claims here. People know this because they follow news about genetics because it's interesting and we are all curious about our origins. That's it.
Ethnic empowerment is a strange subject. Its seen as good when the subject ethnicity is on the bottom of the social hierarchy, but bad when the subject is at the top.
Yeah, it’s so sad in a way. Everyone seems to want to jump to value judgements immediately. It would be so cool if we could talk about ethnicity and the genetic makeup of a population without assuming that it’s about superiority or anything. Obviously this whole topic has been abused by racist pseudo science in the past, but it’s not very helpful to just try to reverse the entire narrative to make people feel better. If we keep assigning so much meaning and value to anyones ethic/racial superiority, humanity is probably never going to overcome racism. Just because one population was conquered by the other, the descendants of the conquered population are somehow lesser people? That’s just such a backwards mindset. Sorry for the rant, I just got super confused by this kind of stuff in the past to the point where I thought that there was never any kind of aryan migration. Until it came up in one of my classes where it was mentioned by an Iranian professor of mine and I asked if it was actually still scientific consensus. I felt so stupid for just buying into this Out Of India narrative when all the evidence seems to point in a different direction. But yeah, I hope that some day we can just collectively move on from even feeling that ethnic empowerment is even necessary. Kind of reminds me of the whole Olmec head thing that has been going on.
@@algepaca The inability to entertain such subject matter and not let it devolve into “my race is better than yours” is an indicator of the state of intellectualism today.
If this is saying ANYTHING about Aryans bring anything to India, that myth has been debunked! Indians produced the VEDAS and anyone trying to give Europe credit for it have a clear agenda.
Exactly, this is so weird that these european cave dwellers all of a sudden in the 18 and 19 century tried to claim india, lol wtf. Modern DNA studies prove that white people come from the sahara and when it dried up migrated to now current day siberia. From siberia they moved into europe after the ice age. Simple, there is no indo european. Ther are indos and there are former siberian white people who now live in europe
Your obsession with race has unfortunately clouded your work. You spent the entire video doing that of which you claim to denounce. Please try to remove your saw bias and speak the truth. History is so sickeningly political.
Even if "World Encyclopedia" isn't billed as some top notch academic resource, this article only goes two minutes in before the loaded language crop up. "Elitist" and "racist", outside a direct context to the terms themselves, have absolutely zero business in defining something. Utterly blatant, embarrassing attempts to sway the reader to their "correct" opinion. Not gonna work on me and the point where I check out of this video altogether.
All iranains and Indians are aryans by genetics. However, the ancient aryans did look more like modern russians and eastern europeans do today. And they mixed with dark skinned natives In those regions.
Learning all this later in life,would have been very nice to have learned this earlier when I was younger and teach others to get along with each other.We are more related than we think we are.
I wonder why it's not mandatory taught in college. I believe if everyone we're to learn this it would end racism by skin color. In truth according to this video. If we're civilized that makes us all Aryan no matter what our skin color.
@@jugg9140 America and most so the European countries are not racist take your hate elsewhere. Move to some country where others think like yourself. We won't lose any sleep over losing all you America haters.
The thing with the term "invasion" is that due to the sheer numbers of modern populations what we think of as invasions are dramatically different from what they would have been back 4000 years ago. What seems to be agreed upon in this is that groups of people from modern day Iran came down into modern day India. Due to the numbers of humans back then it certainly wasn't some systematic thing where one great nation conquered another, but when tribes move into new areas archeology shows us that usually one group beats up the other and then those who survive any conflict that occured merge together. We also know that the chariot is a weapon of war back in ancient times and it only appears in india after this aryan migration. Point being, during this migration there was likely conflict between the settled culture and the migratory one after which the two peoples became one. Now is this an "invasion" in the way we think of the term today? no, probably not, but in a historical context of a few tribes warring over territory then maybe it was.
British, Germans and other Nordic peoples are the real ARYANS. Others like Romas and Jews are eternal enemy of the ARYAN. Indians are mixed with DRAVIDIANS and therefore a savage race, should be subservient to the WHITE, NORDIC ARYAN HERRENRASSE. Talent, abilities and hard work are irrelevant.
Show evidence then....IVC going out was purely due to geographic reasons....you want to self satisy your ego like Adolf back in the 1940s only to get bashed in the face

It is always funny to me when Europeans claim that they are "Aryans". Secondly, Iranians specifically "Persians" or "Parsa" called themselves "Airya" since they believed their religion Zoroastrianism, a corruption of the original Vedic religion was "Aryan". Medes never called themselves as Aryans, neither did Sogdians or Parthians. Only Persians did. So, it was not an ethnic term. In sanskrit, Europeans are considered as mlecchas or ritually impure and not Arya. So, I always find it funny when the former claim such Arya status as Savarna Hindus. The Greeks and Romans generally referred to as "Yavanas" fell under the category of mlecchas. Interestingly enough, while the Iranians called themselves "Airya", in Sanskrit records Parasikas or Persians along with Valhika or Bactrian were also lobbed with mlecchas or people who were ritually impure.
True but I think that the word mleccha mainly has to do with religion, not ethnicity... At some point in time, only those who subscribed to the Vedic religious ideas might be considered to be pure by the "Indo-Aryan" and all others Mleccha (People to the north-west who were mainly Greek/Persians who didn't follow the Vedic religion), Dasa (Some Iranian/Indian tribes who were against Vedic thoughts) etc.
Sanskrit came to India from Mesopotamia ( research published by The Indian Express and The Scroll . I saw a Banaras Hindu university scholar reading from Rig Veda ( Horses were not indigenous to India …so weren’t the Vedas. ) see BBC / PBS series by Historian Michael Wood. The Story of India part 1 available on UA-cam. Now these are the words of the Indian scholar not a Westerner. Btw you can’t dispute DNA study done by Harvard university prof in collaboration with 92 scholars from different fields. Genetics, history, anthropology, archaeology, etc. 4 of these are from Banaras university
The closest languages to original Sanskrit are those of the Slavic (European) people's there are some videos on UA-cam showing an Indian Sanskrit scholar and A Lithuanian person proving this ❤
Europeans are Aryans, they are descendants of the Indo-Aryan people's from Scythia/Caucasus region, this includes both similar Celtic and Germanic lines, their languages are also an extension of Aryan. While the original Persians, including all of the Achaemenid kings, were light skinned Aryans. Persians became darker over time, mixing with peoples they defeated in battle, and further mixing out of their Aryan roots with the Arab conquest of Persia. Modern day, light skinned Iranians are more related to the original Persians and had less mixing with Arabs.
@@ryanciantar Iran is translated as land of the Aryans, true Aryans in Vedic culture are not of any particular skin colour but are called so because of their greatness, the oldest R1 DNA is found in Siberia dated to 24 thousand years ago and is physically represented as being of Ulguric-mongoloid admixture.
This video, by far, is one of the BEST one and most objective one on the topic of the Aryan. I am a Persian and have studied my history objectively for the past 35 years and know for a FACT that the word ARYAN is a Persian word first appeared in the Zoroasterian religion book Zend Avesta some 4000 years ago during the Pishdadian dynesty in Iran. It is mentioned that Persians are true Aryans by the virtue of being Zoroasterian.The meaning of Aryan in Persian is moral, noble, or ethical and NOTHING MORE. There is absolutely no gentic Haplogroup fantasy associated with this adjective word Aryan. Now some missguided people can eternally delve into the fake Aryan eastern European which absolutely a joke and a pure falsification of history since there in NO gentic identity associated with Aryan. FAKE science is everywhere now-a-days but 4000 years ago no body called themselves Aryans but Persians and their direct cousins Medes, and Parthians. Dariush the great (Darius) 2550 years ago in Parseh (Persepolis) on a golden tablet proclaimed that: I am Dariush King of Kings, king of lands containing all kinds of men, .................A son of a Persian having Aryan lineage (noble, moral, ethical lineage). The rest is history, and we are ONE race the HUMAN race. I suffice here.
Are you not aware that Indo-Aryan peoples extensively inhabited Eastern Europe well into the historical period? Scythians and later the Sarmatians are unquestioningly Indo-Aryan and lived from the Danube in modern Hungary all the way east past the Urals. The descendants of the Sarmatians, the Ossetians literally call themselves Aryan in their own language to this day...
@ssir5927 Did you know that almost the entire continent of Europe also call themselves Aryan? Even the Greeks! Also, the entire country of India, Pakistan, Azarbaijan, North Africans, Russians, Ukrainians, and many others call themselves the TRUE Arans, and everyone else is a second class to them? Yes, the name Aryan has become a CURE for the inferiority complex these people have about their own race! Aryan is NOT a race as invented by the French, English, then the Germans. Aryan is simply a character identity of a devoted Zoroasterian individual of Iranian origin and nothing more. Now you can believe in anything you like but I already explained the origin and meaning of Aryan. Peace ✌️.
@@marioscubla6558I am referring to the actual endonym of the Ossetian people, not some vague hyper-race thing. My point is that the horse riding militarily dominant ancestors of the modern Iranians are in fact European. Genetic evidence has tied them to the Baltic of all places. Actual historical evidence places Iranian peoples in Europe. This is not myth, but actual written history from not even that long ago.
@ssir5927 You are drawing your information from the white supremacist Eurocentric history, which is full of FAKE glorification of the imaginary dominant white European race! But in REALITY, true science has already proven that chronologically the white race came to existence roughly some 7000 years ago during the bronz age and before that they were brown skin, black hair people living in north Asia to Eurasia where exactly the Persians, Meds, Parthians, and many other indo Iranian people used to live as simple hunter gatherers. While some of these people migrated to the west into the European continent void of vitamin D in their diet.......low UV sunlight......they gradually became white. Whereas the 3 major indo Iranian tribes the Persians, Medes, and Parthians, just migrated to southwest Asia from north central Asia into the Iranian platue. These Iranian people had black or brown hair, somewhat olive skin color, and morphologically tall and slender, which had NOTHING to do with their ancient pre European cousins who had moved to Europe several thousands years earlier and Genetically MUTATED into a much lighter skin, hair, and eye color. There is absolutely no other connections between Iranians to Europeans other than what I mentioned. The Osetians over millenia have mixed so much with Slavic people that they don't even look like Iranians. Finally, horse riding is a skill achieved by many different people over at least 13000 years ago and not just by Iranians. I hope I covered all the topics on the Aryan myth invented in the 17th century first by the French, English, and the Germans.
@@ssir5927 They are not indo Aryan. Indo Aryan specifically refers to a group of indo European ancestry that inhabited India. It was only these people and their Iranian counterparts that ever used the term Aryan as a self designation in any way, often cultural. It is not genetic. It definitely does not refer to any European when it comes to this context. And it has no significant value. Just another name used by one of thousands of cultures throughout history.
Id!ots in this comment sections should understand that , arya is an ethno cultural term. Arya is the one who belongs to vedic tradition, follows the religion, and speak sanskrit. Rest are non aryans.
Here we go again with another defanged, politically correct video from SAMA. Much of their stuff is great, but when it comes to topics like this, they’re dishonest and emasculated. Sorry, but it’s the truth. Either way, it was somewhat “good”.
It was rambling and childish. It's one thing to disagree with a hypothesis on the merits of the evidence. It's a whole different thing to accuse people who support a theory you don't like of being white supremacists. This ad hominem nonsense should stay on the playground.
The word Arya is used in Vasistha Dharma Sutras as follows: The country of the Âryas (Âryâvarta) lies to the east of the region where (the river Sarasvatî) disappears, to the west of the Black-forest, to the north of the Pâripâtra (mountains), to the south of the Himâlaya. 8 (According to others it lies to the south of the Himâlaya) and to the north of the Vindhya range (being limited east and west by the two oceans). 9 Acts productive of spiritual merit, and customs which (are approved of) in that country, must be everywhere acknowledged (as authoritative); But not different ones, (i.e. those) of (countries where) laws opposed (to those of Âryâvarta prevail). Some (declare the country of the Âryas to be situated) between the (rivers) Gaṅgâ and Yamunâ. These texts clearly indicates that the Aryavarta exist in only in India between the Himalayas and Vindhyachal mountains and they no where mentions about facial features or anything whether they rely on the fact Arya is a person of high spiritual merit pure who performs certain rituals which other people don't as u can see 2.103. But he who does not (worship) standing in the morning, nor sitting in the evening, shall be excluded, just like a Sudra, from all the duties and rights of an Aryan

Gita mentions the drink in chapter 9 It is equivalent to the Iranian haoma(alcohol drink)The relationship between humans and the deity was one of transaction, with Agni (the sacrificial fire) taking the role of messenger between the two. Strong traces of a common Indo-Iranian religion remain visible, especially in the Soma cult and the fire worship and animal sacrifice is also part of early vedic tribs 🙄🤔
Hate to tell you but the truth is racist. Yes, a lighter more advanced class of people invaded northern India and ruled as the elite members of a caste system; and the majority of northern India's upper classes are lighter than the lower classes unto this very day.

The problem here is that there are many false assumptions about the nature of the “Vedic culture”. You have essentially fixed the story first that “Indian culture” today was mostly imported from outside by the so called Iranian/Aryans, even though archaeological evidence points otherwise. There is no significant decline in IVC sites as this video claims, infact archaeologists claim that the post the major drought seen in the Indus River the inhabitants moved to sites like Hastinapur. There is cultural continuity in this. I have to emphasise that there is no literary evidence to suggest that such a cultural shift ever occurred nor is there any archaeological evidence. Without paying any attention to the findings in Indian Archaeology simply pushing your story with cherry picked facts which clearly show that you have not considered the broader more extensive findings in the subcontinent, is something I consider a disrespect to the Indian scholarship and community. And the nationalists are right to be angry about this because while outlining the broad framework of Indian history you have considered little to no facts from Indian literature/archeology and mostly considering sources concerning outside of India. This is not being empirical this is simply bad science.
The word Indian is very misleading. When India is mentioned today, we mean the present boundaries of India. Indian culture is also very misleading word. There is nothing like an exclusive "Indian Culture." India is an artificial country created as the result of Colonialism. And the culture of the people differ from one point to another point. India had different "cultures" down the millenniums. And nothing can be claimed as one exclusive culture. India today is the handing down of practices and way of life that began in the Indus Valley Civilization. There is nothing like a Hindu culture as the word Hindu is the name of a river and not a religion. Vedas written in Indo European language does not reflect a life in the Indian sub continent and neither does the geographical features mentioned therein. Replete with horse sacrifices , it reflects the Yamnaya culture of Central Asia where horses play an important role. And horses are not an indigenous animal of India.
@@vineethjoshy4819 Well you’re reflecting the misunderstanding of western scholars about Indian history. I feel sorry for such Indians who didn’t even take the time to understand our roots. Firstly, there are many traditions and cultural practices across the Indian subcontinent, yes, but that does not mean that they do not have any unifying historic identity to fall back to. I can point out several cultural practices which are common throughout India which can be traced back to the so called “Harappan civilisation”. For instance, married women wearing vermillion on the forehead partition is one such cultural practice you can find across India and nowhere else. Secondly, the Rig Veda is not a book of horse sacrifices. Please understand that. There’s a lot more to it than just that, to give you a perspective, you’re talking abt an element in the Rig Veda which is mentioned few dozen times, when the text in itself is a collection of 10 volumes with over 10,000 verses… do you see how simplistic your interpretation is? Do you know that not all the Rig Vedic poets prefer to use the word “Arya”. There are atleast 5 different schools of thoughts that exist inside the Collective of poems we call the Rig Veda, each having its own traditions, and disagreements. There are atleast 2 distinctly identifiable language families in the Rig Veda. And here you are painting it all under one word “Arya”, which is hardly used few dozen times in the text spanning 10k+ verses. Any scholar who has been a traditional student of the Vedas or even any Sanskrit scholar worth his salt will not make such mind numbing claims, only westerners who like to cherry pick evidences and the communist scholarship who quote them for references do this. The geography mentioned in the Rig Veda is clearly to the EAST of the Indus River. Moreover there is no archeological evidence whatsoever to prove the claims that there was a sudden cultural shift nor is there any evidence for a shift in the ancestry for the last 10k years. Yet people claim that Hinduism came from outside. Lastly but not the least, I challenge you to find not 10 or 20 but just 1 literary reference of Indigenous source, from anywhere inside India which hints at an event that is similar to the one which you mention as the “Aryan migration” which is simply a shift in civilisational values, find me one literary reference to such an event, atleast in some sort of word of mouth story of such a event, given what you’re narrating is not just a simple event but a shift in the very fundamentals of the civilisation and it’s direction. Such a massive shift should have had some impact in the cultural memory of these people who live here. And don’t ask me to believe that everybody chose to ignore it and move on.
@@vineethjoshy4819 I seriously insist that you listen to few lectures from real archaeologists, eminent scholars such as BB Lal, who I feel are trying to bring these fundamental facts to light. It pains me to see even Indians show little interest in this topic to dig a little deeper. It’s not that hard either. Again I’m stressing on my point here, I’m not claiming that we are some racially pure and superior people or some BS like that. We have had plenty of inbound migrations and outward migrations our culture that we see across India today was shaped by thousands of years of interaction with the outside world, in its own unique ways. But I disagree with the idea that there was some singular migration into this land which defines the character of what we call as India today.
@@rammani7170 So who are the real archeologists and eminent scholars? People who interpret data to suit their requirements? “Misunderstanding of western scholars about Indian history.” So who is to decide there is no misunderstanding? Especially in these times of intense falsification and distortion of history to suit certain interests? Why are you belittling Indus Valley Civilization calling it so called Harappan Civilization? If you are a true Indian and proud of its history and culture, you would not have said “so called Harappan Civilization.” The leadership of Indian communism are mostly Brahmins and Savarnas who are equally interested in interpreting Indian history to suit their interests. As for the evidence for a shift in the ancestry for the last 10k years , the evidence is present in the genetic make up of the various people of India and the prevalence in various proportions of the so called Aryan DNA R1a. You first study about this and the findings of the DNA results of the 4500 -year-old Rakhigarhi skeletons instead of trying to drown me in confusing verbiage and hollow claims.
@@vineethjoshy4819 1. You think I’m talking here without even going through the recent studies? And sorry but no I’m not belittling anything or anyone here. If you’re offended by facts I’m sorry for you. 2. I gave you one properly eminent scholar professor BB Lal, or Vasant Shinde (who’s the freaking author of the paper you’re quoting here). Listen to their speeches and then come here and give me advise. 3. Ancestry shift? Steppe Migration = Aryan migration? You’re having too much in your plate to prove and too little evidence. Till today the largest source of South Asian genetic ancestry is from the IVC cline the genetic influence of those who you call “Aryan” (which I disagree actually), on the Indian population was never enough to shift the ancestry. You can refer to interpretations from anyone in the Genetic field worth his salt. Nobody will agree with your statement that there was a “migration of ancestry altering proportions”. The proponents of your so called “Aryan migration”, those geneticist use a circular argument here. For instance Dr. Razib Khan? Claims he’s a neutral investigator of truth but as a Geneticist did he limit his opinion to a Genetic one? No! Now I agree that everyone has right to his opinion but you cannot use your scholarship as a geneticist to make statements which contradict the findings of Archeologists. That too when your own genetic findings have very little direct evidence to support your claims. He openly admits that the steppe migration did not have an ancestry shifting level of divergence in population genetics, the dominant ancestry was still the IVC cline, but he goes on to make a claim that “but this migration was not more of a genetic one but a cultural transformation”, now how qualified is a Geneticist to make a claim outside his work area like this? Is there any evidence for major cultural shift? I don’t think so. Infact even in the so called “Vedic era” there are little to no horse bones found, shall we say that the Aryans never really existed in India, and there’s no such thing as Rig Veda in India today, you might even believe such nonsense. You people cling on to the one and only SNP that you can find. In the Eyropa
the aryan settlers pretty clearly subjugated the people and were distinct in appearence and the colorism in india is deeply engrained in the caste system to this day so i dont see how its not ethnic or racial. that claim seems politically motivated.

@@descendedofrigvedicclans2216 im willing to accept any theory thats widely acclaimed by the scientific community and i do my best to understand genetics though youre right i dont understand it very deeply. in my original post i am asking a question to better understand however i was met by indian centric theories that seem to generally be disregarded. any type of agenda is always misplaced in science.
Well it was a moral caste system which was initially ruled by lighter people though it started off religiously than through time did it become a racial caste system
@@Dorkeydaze the lighter people were the descendants of aryans who always thought themselves superior and thus were the ruling castes thats racist from the start
@@StaminatorBladerstop projecting your racist theories on us. Caste system was originally based on ones action(karma) and gunas(quality). And this sort of hierarchy is common in indo european cultures. Later on , it became hierarchal. Has nothing to do with skin color. And viewing everything on the basis of skin color, misses the point completely. For reference read, purusha suktam of the rigveda.
I would love to have this video separated into two videos, one about the racist history of Aryan theory and one composing modern Aryan description and origin. It was confusing to follow.
The confusion was no accident. The creators of this pseudo documentary did this to use a supposed scholarly inquiry into Indo-European origins as a vehicle to advance their anti-racist political agenda. This is so very typical of the way leftist agitprop is done and, unfortunately, the majority of the dim bulbs who watch this will be completely suckered by it.
As somebody who has in-depth and scholarly knowledge of this subject, I take my hat off to the producers of this video for its very high quality of contents- simply not just one of, but the best presentation of the subject so admirably condensed into such a short time of the video.

At first I might agree, if it wasn't for knowing and understanding historical patterns. The Turks and the Mongols that arrived during the Middle Ages conquered Central Asia and India. They conquered each other in East Asia, pushing each other. So why would the Arians not have done the same, if that is the logical historical pattern? I disagree with you, because what you say is not logical, but rather sounds politically correct. Not historically sound.
That's correct- and this happened _all over_ . Egypt is *another* good example- at various times it's been conquered by Southern Europeans, Greeks, Central/Northern Europeans, Arabs, Romans, Persians, (and even more ancient Hittites and Hyksos). India, for itself, has kind of a peculiar geography, so that no big world empires ever came out of India, however India is geographically amenable to being conquered. From 10,000 BC and even before then, the history of the world is a history of people going to and conquering other places. Even when it was the tribe across the valley, if they had more grain in their silo, "let's go attack them and kill them and take their grain".
Very well presented the best I have heard till now. Will be nice if you can continue on this by discussion on 1) Rig Veda talks about REGIONS ONLY within Asia mainly India, Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan 2) Was any Sanskrit like alphabhets used outside Indian subcontinent?(not words) 3) What percentage of migration took place into India ? 4) Who will the migrants into India call a Arya the Mohinjidaro people who were settled down so well with all knowlege of food, archtecture and what not or themselves 5) Any books outside matching Rig Veda. 7) All New Arch. discoveries in TamilNadu,North India
Rig Veda described only parts of India. Not Asia. Writing from that period has not survived. We have archaic brahmi in Sri Lanka. Before that it's mostly like Indus valley seals.

Modern day historical revisionism. The Aryan invasion is not a "theory" and is written of in old Indian texts and understood by Northern Indians to this day.
I'm a Hindu and a North Indian, Which texts are you referring to? Vedas? If so then I'd like to tell you that the Aryan tribes fought the people called "Dasyus/Dasa" and Micheal witzel and many other scholars have said that these were the North Iranian tribes.

2:00 minutes in and there’s already a few in accuracies. A little more and this video is not about origins but about racism, not Aryans and does nothing to shed light on history.

@@NegativeBodhiImage I thought that blue eyes was a trait first seen in the weird dark skinned Western hunter gatherers. The trait seems to been selected for as current European genomes have just a trace of the old hunter gatherers left.
VIN RUSSO. I was thinking the same thing. Where does the Caste System come from. And other ideas of people who come from the upper classes that they are superior to people who are the same ethnicity. Did these ideas come from Ayranism
Was looking forward to an insightful doc on the history and development of the subcontinent, instead what I got was a sophmoric lecture, (parental kind), about how I shouldn't confuse " Aryan" with "white supremacists," when talking about south Asia....yeah no shit, thanks for the waste of time.
@ABHISHEK RAJU I have no issues with any theories of any variety as long as they're plausible, my issue with the video is that it spends 3/4 of the time telling us that Aryans are not the same as German Nazis which anyone with half-a-brain knows. It's false advertising and the video should have been entitled, "Why you shouldn't confuse Aryan with white supremacists."
*Aryan meant "Noble" in Sanskrutam/ Sanskrit - All Humans whom were highly moral, simple, had jnyana (knowledge and wisdom) and walked the right path throughout her/his life that became beneficial for all was called an "Arya" or "Arya Purush".* As per Sanatana Dharmik scriptures there is no rigid class system and people could align themselves to their professions as they liked and hence called "Varnashrama Dharma" - Varna - Ashrama - Dharma -> Duty as per job or leaning in material life. Moreover the Brahmins/Brahmanas were supposed to live extremely simple (basically destitute), ought to perform prayers for oneself and society and provide free education. Kshatriyas were spiritually enhanced to the level they used to "protect Dharma" , Vaishyas (Merchant/Business class) providing employment opportunities and Shudras were "Service men/women" - Those whom served or worked just like Engineers, Skilled workers, Architects, Designers, Manufacturers etc. These virtues and values were practiced throughout till the 17th - 18th Centuries (pre - colonial era) during the final periods of the Mughal Empire in India. This fact is attested by the Mughals themselves in their Book : *Fatawa - E - Alamgiri written by Naqshbandi scholars on the lives and culture of Indian society in Aurangzeb's period (pre - Maratha era).* The description is very clear. Hence there was economical disparity based differences in social status for over the period of colonial rule as this book of the Mughals was used by the then colonials to target the social fabric of the country with a motive to bend it to their own will. For the most part the colonial experiment was successful and till date Indians identify more with the west than with their culture and themselves.
@@lordvonmanor6915 Nothing has been "re - sighted" and West cannot write the history of the world. This is the mistake your ancestors had done and your contemporaries continue to do. In case you are a scholar in Sanskrit (which I assume you are not), one would understand that the word "Arya" has been used to mention a noble man be it a carpenter, sculptor, ship builder etc. Unfortunately your academia is so drunk with it's own definitions and pre - conceived notions damn it that you feel yourself to possess a superior authority over Sanskrit texts without having even gotten a degree lest kept knowledge of a word in Sanskrit.

It looks like your political correctness has prejudiced your views of the Aryan migration into northern India. Recent DNA studies/evidence confirms it.
My Lord you are PCing the crap out of this. Everyone knows that Indians in the North are lighter and primarily Aryan and those in the South are darker and primarily Dravidian. One can see that northern Indians have similar features to Europeans, that the majority in the South do not. Just because racists used this information does not mean it is wrong and admitting it does not devalue Dravidian accomplishments or civility. We KNOW that the Aryans invaded and subjugated the Dravidian people because it is written about in the ancient Sanskrit texts. NO MORE PC BS! Tell History accurately without the social politics. History is the bad and the good;only by seeing what the ancestors did wrong can we assure that the future descendants do not repeat those uncivil abominations.
All the empires that were in the region were the Kurdish empires and the Kurdish tribes of the Sassanians, Medes, and Kutians. The Kurdish ancestors were the Sumerians. But the Iranian, Iraqi, and Turkish occupation state attributed this civilization to themselves, and they have no relation to this civilization. This civilization belongs to the indigenous peoples, the Kurds.
History is being re-written to accomodate American Imperial Ideology of egalitarianism. Aryan meant both "noble" and ethnicity. Its preposterous to believe the learned British were racist but the war like ancient Aryans were color blind Americans, that somehow paradoxically established the caste system. Indians, up to this day, are very ethnocentric and racist. When it is pointed out that the narratives of history are established to serve political objectives the present is no exception, and in the present, it is American ideology that is dominant. Thank America too, for flooding Europe with immigrants, under the cover of UN refugee programs.
Good point. One need not be an Indologist to notice India's stratification is based on color, and this system has roots in Vedic times, pointing to Aryan hostility to darker skin peoples. No amount of diversity celebration can really, as it were, ignore the Elephant in the room. We have gone full circle: from the British attempts to justify it, to modern attempts to deny it.
@@MrResearcher122 That stratification was created by Europeans aka brits. Roots in Vedic times? yeah you people have been trying to put the blame on indian people for ever. Which you people failed to prove.
European scientists in 18-19c. concluded that people of Caucasus mountains are most pure, strong and beautiful race of people, so white race probably originated there. So white race was called Caucasian. Ironically people of Caucasus also distinguished not only by race but as only non-Aryan ethnicities in huge Indo-European ocean, between Slavs and Iranians
It had nothing to do with purity or beauty. They were obsessed with skull shapes and found that the skull shape they most closely identified with the white race was that most typified by people living in the Caucasus region. Of course today we understand that that is pure nonsense.
@@brucetucker4847 The Caucasus as the origin of humanity and the peak of beauty In the eighteenth century, the prevalent view among European scholars was that the human species had its origin in the region of the Caucasus Mountains.[22] This view was based upon the Caucasus being the location for the purported landing point of Noah's Ark - from whom the Bible states that humanity is descended - and the location for the suffering of Prometheus, who in Hesiod's myth had crafted humankind from clay.[22] In addition, the most beautiful humans were reputed by Europeans to be the stereotypical "Circassian beauties" and the Georgian people; both Georgia and Circassia are in the Caucasus region.[23][22] The "Circassian beauty" stereotype had its roots in the Middle Ages, while the reputation for the attractiveness of the Georgian people was developed by early modern travellers to the region such as Jean Chardin.[22][24] Christoph Meiners' 1785 treatise The Outline of History of Mankind was the first work to use the term Caucasian (Kaukasisch) in its wider racial sense. (click on image for English translation of the text) The term Caucasian as a racial category was first introduced in the 1780s by members of the Göttingen School of History - notably Christoph Meiners in 1785 and Johann Friedrich Blumenbach in 1795-it had originally referred in a narrow sense to the native inhabitants of the Caucasus region.[25] In his The Outline of History of Mankind (1785), the German philosopher Christoph Meiners first used the concept of a "Caucasian" (Kaukasisch) race in its wider racial sense. Meiners' term was given wider circulation in the 1790s by many people. Meiners imagined that the Caucasian race encompassed all of the ancient and most of the modern native populations of Europe, the aboriginal inhabitants of West Asia (including the Phoenicians, Hebrews and Arabs), the autochthones of Northern Africa (Berbers, Egyptians, Abyssinians and neighboring groups), the Indians, and the ancient Guanches.[36] It was Johann Friedrich Blumenbach, a colleague of Meiners', who later came to be considered one of the founders of the discipline of anthropology, who gave the term a wider audience, by grounding it in the new methods of craniometry and Linnean taxonomy.[37] Blumenbach did not credit Meiners with his taxonomy, although his justification clearly points to Meiners' aesthetic viewpoint of Caucasus origins.[38] In contrast to Meiners, however, Blumenbach was a monogenist-he considered all humans to have a shared origin and to be a single species. Blumenbach, like Meiners, did rank his Caucasian grouping higher than other groups in terms of mental faculties or potential for achievement[37] despite pointing out that the transition from one race to another is so gradual that the distinctions between the races presented by him are "very arbitrary". ----------------- I think it is clear that my words "they thought so.. " is backed by their (leading racologists of time) own words (NOT mine - it would be arrogant)
European scientists - rather *colonial scientists* did everything to please their masters and twisted entire world history. Now that Out of India theory among others backed by science are coming out, academia has already started accepting every other probability there is and come to a distinguished conclusion through proper evidence, research, discussions and debates. *All this they do now by first learning ancient languages - going to the subcontinent, dwelling deep into the works of the ancient world, archaeological sites, pottery etc. and then come to a conclusion which colonial historians were extremely feeble at (not generalizing but in plural).*

A visit today, to modern Iran, will show you, that the population is sharply divided into two cultural groups: One which bare all the physical attributes of Central Europeans, and the other, which shares physical attributes more with the populations in Pakistan, and India. Afghans are no different: Those who's ethnic heritage is from Iran, Tajikistan, Bactria, and Uzbekistan, are of lighter complexion, and bare a different culture. The Afgan-Pashtu of the South-East, are of a darker race, and bare the deeply religious cultures, customs, and mentality of their Pashtu cousins of Pakistan.
Uzbeks are a Turkic race they very differwnt than other Afghan races and Tajiks and Pashtuns are genetic cousins who look similar only difference is their language and culture and only the Pashtuns in Pakistan share similarity with the Afghan Pashtuns while the other Pakistani ethnic groups share no similarity.

@@SponsorShort "The Aryans, a name that meant “noble of birth and race,” migrated from their ancestral home on the Eurasian steppes, crossing the Hindu Kush east of the Iranian Plateau. Travelling in tribal groups of varying sizes over a period of hundreds of years, they set- tled in the land they called “Sapta Sindhu,” or the “land of the seven rivers,” in which they found lush plains for their pastoral lifestyle. They conquered not by barbarity but by overwhelming the indigenous tribes with their sophisticated battle tactics and their swift, spoke-wheeled chariots, battle equipment never before used in the Indus valley." - Encyclopedia of Wars, Philips C and Axelrod A
I think the latest theory for the Harappan decline was earthquake that changed the course of the Sindhu river. The river dried up, with water diverted to the Ganges and Indus. That is why the Ganges is the holy river. It was the river that was enhanced/created when the Sindhu died. It gave the people life who thought they had lost everything.
Saraswati river is the one that disappeared from human vision .. It said to hav gone underground after an earthquake .. created a horrible drought ... Ganges is a man made canal of water brought down after connecting multiple Himalayan water channels .. brain child of ancient king Bhagiratha
That's not Sindhu.. that's saraswathi.. Recent findings suggests it dried up 4000-4500 years ago. but in Vedas it was mentioned."saraswathi river is flowing full fledge".

No it is no coincidence. It is a well established fact (through the study of ancient DNA) that the Corded Ware culture of northern Germany, Poland, the baltic region, Bielorussia and western parts of Russia/Ukraine was the origin of the populations who later became the Indo-Iranians. The Indo-Iranians are not direct descendants of the step populations who were the founders of the Corded Ware culture (Yamnaya). Instead, the step population pendulum first swung west (Yamnaya -> Corded Ware) and only then it swung back from there (with new DNA admixture acquired in the West - in particular Western Hunter Gatherer DNA - in the baggage).

@Jon Dau you sure said a whole lot of stuff. so here's where you're wrong: Aryan means noble, not in the sense that "it was a word intended as the persian version of french word" but in the sense that "we see this word in persian and use a word we know of you describe it" they have a similar meaning but originated separately. in simple maths terms it would mean "Aryan = Noble" is incorrect. "Aryan ~ Noble" is correct.
So some mysterious people from central Asia is the only explanation they got? Not good enough sounds like smoke and mirrors to me origins please mysterious people is not an answer if you are going to call it origins. PERIOD
Indo-European is a language family, NOT a race, and some stupid people say its a ‘white’ race or European race that is 1000%wrong. For example: most Indians and Bangladeshis are dark-brown skin, but their language belonged to Indo-Europeans language group, While Hungarian,Finnish people are 99% pure white skinned, but their language NOT indo-European.
I absolutely am burning my stomach muscles from your history on them largely due to my ignorance believing they qere as ancient Egypt, babylon or something and to learn from 1 of the most hilarious yet truly honest historians I've ran across yet
By the time any group had invented writing they each knew metallurgy, animal breeding, farming architecture and all had an incredible record of the movements of the planets, stars & repeating events like what we know as Halley’s Comet. They weren’t anything like “primitive”.
Aryan is a ethnic label used to classify ruling class light skinned people in India. the word itself means pure, and this purity is used to oppress and discriminate the so called impure dark skinned people for 5000 years. where more people than Europe, middle East, Central Asia combined lived and oppressed in India, some how the author is ignorant of this. even though he is obsessed with Sanskrit.
>Blue eyes formed 6000 years ago around the Black Sea >Proto-Indo-European formed 6000 years ago around the Black Sea >Blue eyes are only found in areas were Indo-European languages are spoken or used to be spoken >The people who spoke Proto-Indo-European called themselves Aryan >The people who spoke Proto-Indo-European used swastikas >The people who spoke Proto-Indo-European were extremely patriarchal and patrilineal and didn't believe in adopting or raising other people's kids (they were likely 100% homogeneous, originally at least) >Haplogroup R1a and R1b are only found in areas were Indo-European languages are spoken or used to be spoken >The upper classes of India and Iran are more likely to have lighter features and R1a DNA than the lower classes >The Sanskrit word for caste is varna (color) You're evil and racist if you think these things are related.
Whether we like it or not racial alignment is one of the strongest forces in the world and has been the cause of perpetual confrontation, wars and discrimination between different people speaking different languages from the time of creation till today. You can see it everywhere. It is singular, crude and inclusive. Outsiders literally have no place in these racial circles. It is exclusively for people of a single race. I am a supporter of the Invasion theory. I am also working on the decipherment of the Indus script. There are more than a thousand Indus sites in north-western part of the Indian sub-continent. Many of the ruins are almost intact even after 4000 years. The foundations are so strong that you can reconstruct houses and make them livable. My question is that they are not mere ruins, they were homes where people lived, children played, people lived here and raised families. But no one seems to be asking where have these people gone? The regular answers are: floods, climate change, drought, rivers changing their course and deforestation destroyed the Indus culture which was as large as western Europe but nothing happened to the incumbents(Vedic/Aryan people) even after living in India for almost 3500 years. I find it impossible to believe this stuff . Can anyone help me?
@Aurangzeb, Corona E Azam You have said some amazing things. I really wish the people in the south are the descendants of the Indus people, but unfortunately no one has any idea who they really are even though they speak more than twelve languages and no one refers to the Indus people as their ancestors. So there is a big gap.
@Aurangzeb, Corona E Azam I had been an amateur military historian for many years and I have also followed many wars fought from 1971 onwards on radio the world over. I deem human beings more of brutes and less than animals. Regardless of their color they have an active inner core that seeks domination and revenge. The bitter truth is that there can be no racial unification. Added to this is the linguistic and religious fanaticism that is fed on the fuel of hatred and promoted by powers to be. Humans are essentially brutes, they are very intelligent, cunning and ruthless. The last line is not mine, it is the anthropologically definition of Homo sapiens sapiens(us). Please check it. So color and complexion are of no consequence.
It would seem this video starts from an vague premise that I feel should be explained more throughly. The idea of ethnicity has been around for as long as mankind has been on Earth, its the concept of ethnicity that is not the same thing as it was in the past because it changes over time as we redifine ourselves we do it for others as well. In the ancient world it used to be intrinsically linked not to class but to nationhood. And the border of the nation was not the empire but the city. Ancient people's could see themselves as brothers but never as the same. That's why Semites were such nationalists despite all living in the same place. In that context being Iranian was as alien to Persians as being Latin or Greek. This is also why the Greeks had a distinct cathegory for blond people called "yellow" yet people like Achilles or Alexander were considered Greek despite being blond. Foreigners weren't just different phisically they were alien in culture and the only people equal to you were the ones living in the same city. Hence why Socrates was a considered a foreigner despite living a few miles beyond the borders. And its not that much different between infamous gardner Sargon of Akkad and his king Ur-Zababa. It would take humanity until the late middle ages with the Absolute Monarchs that gave birth to maritime empires to have nations of equals all across the board.
technically etnos was a Greek term, and has a history of about 2500-2800 years... but there is evidence the Egyptians considered race on the table of nations as well as other sources like the Indian Epics.
@@user-ud7ei6zv7i I never went into full detail about the haplogroups and such so I find what you're telling me fascinating. I agree on A LOT of things probably even more than I realize at first glance even. Except I disagree in some minor issues. Technically, the widespread nomadic Scythians relationship with the Classical Greeks predated Alexander the Great by Centuries. And it was deep enough to have Scythain iconography not just in Greek art during the Golden Century but in the sacred Parthenon itself. Ilyrians on the other hand, never expanded to such extent going from Northern Italy to upper Greece and it is possible that they had reached Macedonians but not Thessaly since historically speaking, Ilyrians lived further North and were said to clash with and form alliances with the Etruscans against protoCelts from Central Europe. It seems much more plausibly to me that blond hair in Thessaly comes from a much earlier preAnatolian period and is not Pelasgian but Chalcolithic or even Neolithic in origin. Ilyrian tech however, might as well have reached all of Greece since the Spartan already had a variant of the Ilyrian helmet when in the Peloponese by 8th Century BC. As far as DNA is concerned, mainland Acheans came from Cycladic Minoans from circa 2800 BC to 2400 BC whom themselves came from from Anatolian peoples from around 6000 BC. I recall a study done in Crete with bodies from around 3300 BC, from 2007 I believe, which sugested that they share the same DNA with modern day peoples from the island. Likewise genetically speaking, Classical Greeks were indeed decentants of the so called Mycenean Acheans (study from 2017) but they also kept their culture as a basis of their own and somehow Hellenized ( impossed it ) the rest of the Aegean Sea. However, Anatolian peoples had A LOT of interaction with Semithic peoples after the Chalcolithic ended thus making them remarkably different from the Acheans both genentically and culturally speaking, and more similar to Bronze Age Pakistan than Bronze Age Greece, which is why Semitic Sumerians were keen to trade with Harappan peoples from that far back into the Bronze Age. Although their heads of empires did form a brotherwhood between eachother, according to letter transcipts, it was no different than between the Egyptians and themselves, meaning it was more of an honorary title for important peoples, heads of state / government officials, rather than a familiar bond of an ethnic origin of some sort. At this point I'd also like to mention Armenians are also a very interesting group since the were a horse riding steppe dwelling people reaching the heartland of Europe (modern day Armenia) well into the late Bronze Age. But basically this tells me they were at the very edge of the Hallstatt sedentary peoples and had a very strong connection with preScythian Aryans/Iranians. The Mitani took horses from the Armenians and came up with the war chariot tech and it was through this vehicle how the great Empires of the Bronze Age reached their peak in splendor, including the Mycenean Acheans. The history of how both, Minoans and Hellenic Greeks, were able to survive the Bronze Age collapse is remarkable. They basically kept retreating further away from the coast and kept building higher and higher up in the mountains to places which were seemingly impossible to conquer by the SeaPeoples, and finally after they were gone, they gradually returned and reclaimed their lands, Pan Helenism was syill a reality but it had been so long that they lacked a written common language, and by the 8th Century BC when they had already fully recovered, and were fighting against eachother while amassing considerable armies, but keeping a Pan Helenic sentiment which could undoubtedly trace back to those frightful humble recluses from Dark Ages after the Bronze Age Collapse that eventually lead them to best the mighty Persians in the Archaic age with a little help from the Scythians previously weakening the heart of the Persian Empire course.

@@descendedofrigvedicclans2216 In 2005, K. Thangaraj and his colleagues at CCMB published their findings about the origin of Andaman islanders in the journal Science. The Onge turned out to have surprisingly unmixed origins. They had likely lived isolated in the islands since the arrival here of the first group of humans out of Africa. There were mutations in their mtDNA that were found nowhere else in the world. These mutations must have originated here and not spread. The Onge were an untouched link to the earliest humans who settled the planet. Almost all Indian groups had inherited varying portions of their ancestry from a population related to western Eurasians. Most Indians alive today are descended from a mixture of two very different populations, Reich and colleagues reported in Nature in 2009 based on a study of 25 ethnic groups. These two populations-the red and green of the earlier analogy-were given the names Ancestral North Indians (ANI) and Ancestral South Indians (ASI). The ASI, likely aboriginal inhabitants of India since no trace of them is found outside the subcontinent, were a sister population of the Onge. The two must have diverged after being separated, one on the mainland, one on the islands. The ANI showed genetic similarities with Europeans, Middle Easterners, and Central Asians. Some ANI ancestry was present in almost all Indian groups, but the percentage was found to be greater in the north of India and lesser in the south-for example, Kashmiri Pandits could trace about 70 per cent of their ancestry to the ANI people, and the Mala, a Dalit community from Andhra Pradesh, around 40 per cent. Broadly, groups that spoke IndoEuropean languages and were traditionally considered upper-caste had a larger ANI component. No groups in mainland India were seen with only ASI ancestry. The Onge were the only group studied that showed absolutely no trace of ANI ancestry. At some time in the past, these two very different populations had inter-bred, and at some later point the castes, clans, communities and tribes we see now had formed as endogamous groups that only married within themselves.
@@khashayar8989 you are using a hindu/ Persian word yet now 😂 aryan originated from Sanskrit rigveda which mentioned yavan as anarya Non-aryan 😂 you can't disprove it until you are using aryan word, tell me any European which is more older Sanskrit 😂 which use Arya😂 want to become so called aryan but don't want to believe on Aryan origin culture 😂 you are malecha anarya
Arya Dharma is the lineage of the followers of the Sanatana Dharma now called as Hinduism. These ritual practices are still continuing in modern day India. Enchanting the Vedic scriptures. Performing Agni rituals. Memories the Vedic hymns as in ancient oral traditions are few of the Vedic customs which we have been following. The Sanskrit is our language and we are the only true authentic descendants of the Vedic Aryans. Those who don't follow the Sanatana Dharma can not be called as Arya. Present day Iranians are not the Aryan!
@علي ياسر which Iranians were made kings please provide evidences. In the early mandalas of Rig Veda there was a mention of the great war of ten kings with the king Sudas in which the ten kings lost this battle to the King Sudas . One of the ten kings was known as Parshwnatha who later migrated to Iran and his tribe later came to be known as Persians. The term Arya Dharma has been exclusive to the people following Sanatana Dharma. Those who differed from the Dharma are otherwise.
Light skin being associated with nobility could be to do with nobles not having to go and work in the fields etc, and so not catch the sun's rays on their skin. Someone with lighter skin, even a stranger, might therefore be assumed to be somehow noble, in a kind of backwards logic. It does seem to be something that occurs in many cultures and might be related to things like women wearing the veil in medieval and early modern europe, and in Islamic and other middle eastern and central Asian cultures. So if there is reference to lighter skinned Aryans, it may be simply a description related to this class-based phenomenon.

From Hebrew to English or from dominant to recessive. Nobility would be those with higher IQ's, recessive genes, & elongated skulls, & larger body frames, like the giants with skinny limbs.

Based on this video it seems to me that Aryan was an ethnic marker but in an older sense, referring purely to culture rather ancestry. For example Slovyan/Sloven, Slav, literally something like “worded” refers to one who can speak (in proto Slavic), as opposed to a Nemec, a mute (one who does not speak proto Slavic), thus the Frank Samo or some earlier Goth or Scythian who assimilates into a Slavic culture and speaks the language would be considered Sloven. Similarly someone who is Teutonic is someone who is of the people, but the people are “people who live like us” not “people who descend from the same genetic ancestor group as us”. To the Greeks or Romans also, a Barbarian was one who did not speak the language of a civilized culture (Greek, Latin) and does not live a civilized lifestyle (lives outside of large cities, wears pants instead of robes, drinks beer instead of wine, is a citizen of a civilized state like Athens, Sparta, or Rome etc.) by this definition a black person or a blonde person (seen as a race distinct from the white Mediterraneans) can be civilized as long as they live like a Greek or Roman and obtain citizenship. Among the Greeks ancestry mattered more than in Rome, your parents both had to be born in the state for you to be a citizen, but even then ethnicity/genetics weren’t important, a Phoenician, a Celt or a Nubian could live in Athens and have a kid there and that non Greek kid would still be a citizen & therefore civilized. In Rome of course it was even easier with military service being a path to citizenship & from there all you needed to do was assimilate culturally. So it looks like Aryan was an ethnic marker in that sense. Do you share our moral values, pray to our Gods, etc? If so it doesn’t matter if you’re a tan guy with a hair colour range from black, through brown, to red like the migrating Aryans, a dark skinned descendant of Dravidians, or a tan but purely black haired Elamite, you’re Aryan. Am I correct in this understanding?
I am not agreeing that Aryan's not done Barbarian thing's to Indian's, Pushmitra shung a military leader of Maurya empire killed Maurya killed and later killed thousands of Buddhist monks and followers and forcibly asked people's to stop Buddhism, who don't listen made them Shudra
Let me cut your story short and pointed as much I have read from eminent Indian historians that there is nothing such like aryans race existed, it was just a character of being a noble man that is even mentioned in mahabharata etc, recent archeological discovery have found rakhigadi which much older than hadapa datinga more near 9000 old in Indian state of Haryana and traces of river saraswati mentioned in rigved which due to tectonic activities changed its course and later dried up which date back to more than 8000 years old and yes proof of agriculture near Varanasi city at the bank of river Ganga dating more than 11000 years old by dating method , and about persia - it is given in rigved that out of many sects in India, parshav sect who use to worship fire migrated to persia which later became Iran ( not fully proven yet) . Now coming to Williams Jones and Max Muller so these two are most pathetic persons who messed Indian history without knowing vedic sankrit they translated vedas and molded it to show superiority of Europeans because they were not able to digest that there can be civilization which were more thriving and developed than them so under influence of Catholic Church they corrupted our Indus civilization history and yes it's present in its possible raw form just fact is that western world don't like listening us now but we know what is true and everyone will accept it eventually.
Let the Catholic Church out of it! Even if it is indeed the mother of most evils, this kind of theories come from British- Anglicans colonialists and German Protestant political-philosofers ( crazy in love with male blonde peasants in uniform: their fashion taste brought them to start wars just to watch them attired like that all the time). Nothing to do here with the Vatican, who learned already one thing or two when it divided the World globe just to give a Half to Spain, the other to Portugal, this is why they were not that vocal about!
Rakhigarhi is not 9000 yrs old it's part of mature of Harappan age and is this somewhere from 3000BC to 2000BC. Also the skeletons found in Rakhigarhi have no steppe DNA but today steppe DNA is present in populations of north-western India and Pakistan, now from where did that steppe DNA came ?? Well it came from Aryan migration/invasion, Rakhigarhi itself proves Aryan migration/invasion. Also Europeans scientists and scholarly individuals since renaissance have kept themselves away from churches and have looked at classical Greco-Roman civilization for knowledge, a non-christian civilization so there is no need to think that they had thought of "how can it be non-christian civilization". In every possible way ancient Aryans were going to predate Christianity so for sure they didn't had such mindset.

Its clear from comments section that many of us Indians want only the "Out of India theory" (OIT) and see AMT as a European conspiracy. Anyone who disagrees even with counter evidence is slandered in the most un-Hindu manner.

Science says mixed race happens when mammals of purer race (नस्ल या जाति) mingle. Same thing can be seen by pet lovers (eg. Interbreeding between different types (race if you will) of dogs). But for these OIT supporters, reverse is true. Aryans in Steppes region were created from Mixed race Indians (Aryans + natives) who travelled to Steppes. Go figure!!

As a linguist it’s a far fetched idea to described the Arians and protoarians as a non ethnic group, and only a some kind of ‘noble people’ with no common or cultural traits. The effort of culturally neutralize the idea of an Aryan people is more a reflection of your own projections on culture based on the result of the distorsión of these ideas in Europe in the last two centuries. There is no relation between the historical Aryans and your own ideas of race and culture.

But Id like to see these guys explain the blondism and blue eyed caricatures of personages from India (incl Buddha) to predynastic red headed Egyptians like the mummy referred to as "Ginger" and statues of ruling elites of Egypt who had blue eyes, when Blue eyes is a recessive trait that emerged proto Indo European peoples around the Black Sea approx 6-8000 years bpe. Protip you cant do it. Blondism and Red hair are purely N. European traits and Blue eyes was a trait the expanded out from a single PIE mating pair. All the wordplay in the world cant dismiss the fact that IE peoples from N. India/Pakistan/Kaffiristan to Iran to N. Africa to Europe are all from one shared lineage and were at least part of the ruling classes of all the relevant nations of history. We are brothers and sisters.

Not really. The people who originally invented the Aryan term and identity were almost certainly the Andronovo people, who were genetically European. These people then mixed with the Bactria-Margiana Archeological Complex(BMAC) and this mixed group then invaded Iran and the Indus Valley
@@दीपकनागर-थ5छ that's because most central and western Europeans are R1b. R1a is not the only "Aryan" haplotype
@@alexdunphy3716 That's a misinformed opinion. First of all saying Andronovo were "European" is wrong to start with. Yes, they shared huge genetic similarity with Corded Ware Culture of Europe, but neither of them had any common understanding of "Europeaness" it's like saying Yamnaya were Siberian, cuz they derived a huge part of their ancestry from Ancestral North Eurasians. The European identity is a modern construct, not applicable to these ancient people. Secondly, it's not certain if or not Andronovo themselves started calling themselves Aryans before they started migrating south towards BMAC. It's equally plausible that they came with this whole idea of Aryan identity after migrating into BMAC, when they mixed with the Iran-Chalcolithic Farmers of Oxus civilization (who's land they inhabited) infact Andronovo Homeland was itself situated over the Oxus Homeland which means there was mixing even before their migration southwards, Eastern sites of Andronovo show even mixing with East Eurasian populations. Finally, there's no evidence of any large scale "invasion" of Indus Valley Civilization (peaking arounf 2000 BCE), infact it was already mostly gone by the time Indo-Aryans migrated into India (1500 BCE). Hence it is more plausible that the process was more of a migration (settlement with no major aim of subjugation, with possible minor skirmishes here and there) rather than full on invasion .

Young people want and need to know who they are, and where they came from, and, that they all have value. And "Value" is not dictated by skin color.

@@marasimix9369 Thank you, I'm open to all sources of info.
The word āryan is often found in Hindu, Buddhist, and Jain texts. In the Indian spiritual context, it can be applied to Rishis or to someone who has mastered the four noble truths and entered upon the spiritual path.
its found in almost all indoeuropean languages from the european atlantic coast in the west to india in the east.

The title of the video is a little misleading, it was more about the debunking of aryan invasion and the unfortunate marring of the study of aryans by 20th C race politics. There is however a lot that wasn’t discussed, like the actual evidence of Aryan origins and migration, since they did actually exist. Didn’t talk about linguistic origins and data. And then at the end made the suggestion that everyone can be aryan regardless of skin colour. That seems silly to me, why do people need to be called aryan to be considered noble or civilised or cultured? I got so confused at that point and started to think this was actually more a polemic in favour of a certain political position, especially given the misleading title. Bit of a shame because the aryans are such an interesting and influential group.
Aryan Invasion Theory has been debunked. You're right, it's because of the "race politics" that this identity was thrust upon the people of the Indian subcontinent.

I was looking for a lot of similar information and sort of disappointed at its absence too. There’s a UA-cam channel that shares mythology and history including Indian history and it actually sites the invasion theory and even connects that to the foundation of caste. So I wanted to see what other information was available about “Aryan people”. I think this video is useful in a completely different way. Racism, white supremacy, and European influence can be observed in most parts of the world and to think that the misinterpretation of Vedic texts can be considered one of its roots is astounding to me. I feel more inclined to learn about India because of how much it’s indirectly impacted the world in this dimension.
this video was a let down.period.
Seems like almost everyone here in the comments is an "expert" on Aryans.

@@coreyleavell6921 Guess it depends on the version...
Sure, I guess. But there's undeniable genetic research that contradicts some of the claims here. People know this because they follow news about genetics because it's interesting and we are all curious about our origins. That's it.
Ethnic empowerment is a strange subject. Its seen as good when the subject ethnicity is on the bottom of the social hierarchy, but bad when the subject is at the top.
Yeah, it’s so sad in a way. Everyone seems to want to jump to value judgements immediately. It would be so cool if we could talk about ethnicity and the genetic makeup of a population without assuming that it’s about superiority or anything. Obviously this whole topic has been abused by racist pseudo science in the past, but it’s not very helpful to just try to reverse the entire narrative to make people feel better.
If we keep assigning so much meaning and value to anyones ethic/racial superiority, humanity is probably never going to overcome racism. Just because one population was conquered by the other, the descendants of the conquered population are somehow lesser people? That’s just such a backwards mindset.
Sorry for the rant, I just got super confused by this kind of stuff in the past to the point where I thought that there was never any kind of aryan migration. Until it came up in one of my classes where it was mentioned by an Iranian professor of mine and I asked if it was actually still scientific consensus. I felt so stupid for just buying into this Out Of India narrative when all the evidence seems to point in a different direction.
But yeah, I hope that some day we can just collectively move on from even feeling that ethnic empowerment is even necessary. Kind of reminds me of the whole Olmec head thing that has been going on.

The thing with the term "invasion" is that due to the sheer numbers of modern populations what we think of as invasions are dramatically different from what they would have been back 4000 years ago.
What seems to be agreed upon in this is that groups of people from modern day Iran came down into modern day India. Due to the numbers of humans back then it certainly wasn't some systematic thing where one great nation conquered another, but when tribes move into new areas archeology shows us that usually one group beats up the other and then those who survive any conflict that occured merge together.
We also know that the chariot is a weapon of war back in ancient times and it only appears in india after this aryan migration.
Point being, during this migration there was likely conflict between the settled culture and the migratory one after which the two peoples became one. Now is this an "invasion" in the way we think of the term today? no, probably not, but in a historical context of a few tribes warring over territory then maybe it was.
True, Britishers were the real loots.
British, Germans and other Nordic peoples are the real ARYANS. Others like Romas and Jews are eternal enemy of the ARYAN.

It is always funny to me when Europeans claim that they are "Aryans".
Secondly, Iranians specifically "Persians" or "Parsa" called themselves "Airya" since they believed their religion Zoroastrianism, a corruption of the original Vedic religion was "Aryan". Medes never called themselves as Aryans, neither did Sogdians or Parthians. Only Persians did. So, it was not an ethnic term.
In sanskrit, Europeans are considered as mlecchas or ritually impure and not Arya. So, I always find it funny when the former claim such Arya status as Savarna Hindus.
The Greeks and Romans generally referred to as "Yavanas" fell under the category of mlecchas. Interestingly enough, while the Iranians called themselves "Airya", in Sanskrit records Parasikas or Persians along with Valhika or Bactrian were also lobbed with mlecchas or people who were ritually impure.
True but I think that the word mleccha mainly has to do with religion, not ethnicity...
At some point in time, only those who subscribed to the Vedic religious ideas might be considered to be pure by the "Indo-Aryan" and all others Mleccha (People to the north-west who were mainly Greek/Persians who didn't follow the Vedic religion), Dasa (Some Iranian/Indian tribes who were against Vedic thoughts) etc.
Sanskrit came to India from Mesopotamia ( research published by The Indian Express and The Scroll . I saw a Banaras Hindu university scholar reading from Rig Veda ( Horses were not indigenous to India …so weren’t the Vedas. ) see BBC / PBS series by Historian Michael Wood. The Story of India part 1 available on UA-cam. Now these are the words of the Indian scholar not a Westerner. Btw you can’t dispute DNA study done by Harvard university prof in collaboration with 92 scholars from different fields. Genetics, history, anthropology, archaeology, etc. 4 of these are from Banaras university
The closest languages to original Sanskrit are those of the Slavic (European) people's there are some videos on UA-cam showing an Indian Sanskrit scholar and A Lithuanian person proving this ❤
Europeans are Aryans, they are descendants of the Indo-Aryan people's from Scythia/Caucasus region, this includes both similar Celtic and Germanic lines, their languages are also an extension of Aryan. While the original Persians, including all of the Achaemenid kings, were light skinned Aryans. Persians became darker over time, mixing with peoples they defeated in battle, and further mixing out of their Aryan roots with the Arab conquest of Persia. Modern day, light skinned Iranians are more related to the original Persians and had less mixing with Arabs.
@@ryanciantar Iran is translated as land of the Aryans, true Aryans in Vedic culture are not of any particular skin colour but are called so because of their greatness, the oldest R1 DNA is found in Siberia dated to 24 thousand years ago and is physically represented as being of Ulguric-mongoloid admixture.
This video, by far, is one of the BEST one and most objective one on the topic of the Aryan. I am a Persian and have studied my history objectively for the past 35 years and know for a FACT that the word ARYAN is a Persian word first appeared in the Zoroasterian religion book Zend Avesta some 4000 years ago during the Pishdadian dynesty in Iran. It is mentioned that Persians are true Aryans by the virtue of being Zoroasterian.The meaning of Aryan in Persian is moral, noble, or ethical and NOTHING MORE. There is absolutely no gentic Haplogroup fantasy associated with this adjective word Aryan. Now some missguided people can eternally delve into the fake Aryan eastern European which absolutely a joke and a pure falsification of history since there in NO gentic identity associated with Aryan. FAKE science is everywhere now-a-days but 4000 years ago no body called themselves Aryans but Persians and their direct cousins Medes, and Parthians. Dariush the great (Darius) 2550 years ago in Parseh (Persepolis) on a golden tablet proclaimed that: I am Dariush King of Kings, king of lands containing all kinds of men, .................A son of a Persian having Aryan lineage (noble, moral, ethical lineage). The rest is history, and we are ONE race the HUMAN race. I suffice here.
Are you not aware that Indo-Aryan peoples extensively inhabited Eastern Europe well into the historical period? Scythians and later the Sarmatians are unquestioningly Indo-Aryan and lived from the Danube in modern Hungary all the way east past the Urals. The descendants of the Sarmatians, the Ossetians literally call themselves Aryan in their own language to this day...
@ssir5927 Did you know that almost the entire continent of Europe also call themselves Aryan? Even the Greeks! Also, the entire country of India, Pakistan, Azarbaijan, North Africans, Russians, Ukrainians, and many others call themselves the TRUE Arans, and everyone else is a second class to them? Yes, the name Aryan has become a CURE for the inferiority complex these people have about their own race! Aryan is NOT a race as invented by the French, English, then the Germans. Aryan is simply a character identity of a devoted Zoroasterian individual of Iranian origin and nothing more. Now you can believe in anything you like but I already explained the origin and meaning of Aryan.

@@marioscubla6558I am referring to the actual endonym of the Ossetian people, not some vague hyper-race thing.

Actual historical evidence places Iranian peoples in Europe. This is not myth, but actual written history from not even that long ago.
@ssir5927 You are drawing your information from the white supremacist Eurocentric history, which is full of FAKE glorification of the imaginary dominant white European race! But in REALITY, true science has already proven that chronologically the white race came to existence roughly some 7000 years ago during the bronz age and before that they were brown skin, black hair people living in north Asia to Eurasia where exactly the Persians, Meds, Parthians, and many other indo Iranian people used to live as simple hunter gatherers. While some of these people migrated to the west into the European continent void of vitamin D in their diet.......low UV sunlight......they gradually became white. Whereas the 3 major indo Iranian tribes the Persians, Medes, and Parthians, just migrated to southwest Asia from north central Asia into the Iranian platue. These Iranian people had black or brown hair, somewhat olive skin color, and morphologically tall and slender, which had NOTHING to do with their ancient pre European cousins who had moved to Europe several thousands years earlier and Genetically MUTATED into a much lighter skin, hair, and eye color. There is absolutely no other connections between Iranians to Europeans other than what I mentioned. The Osetians over millenia have mixed so much with Slavic people that they don't even look like Iranians. Finally, horse riding is a skill achieved by many different people over at least 13000 years ago and not just by Iranians. I hope I covered all the topics on the Aryan myth invented in the 17th century first by the French, English, and the Germans.

They are not indo Aryan. Indo Aryan specifically refers to a group of indo European ancestry that inhabited India.
It was only these people and their Iranian counterparts that ever used the term Aryan as a self designation in any way, often cultural. It is not genetic.

The word Arya is used in Vasistha Dharma Sutras as follows:
The country of the Âryas (Âryâvarta) lies to the east of the region where (the river Sarasvatî) disappears, to the west of the Black-forest, to the north of the Pâripâtra (mountains), to the south of the Himâlaya. 8
(According to others it lies to the south of the Himâlaya) and to the north of the Vindhya range (being limited east and west by the two oceans). 9
Acts productive of spiritual merit, and customs which (are approved of) in that country, must be everywhere acknowledged (as authoritative);
But not different ones, (i.e. those) of (countries where) laws opposed (to those of Âryâvarta prevail).
Some (declare the country of the Âryas to be situated) between the (rivers) Gaṅgâ and Yamunâ.
These texts clearly indicates that the Aryavarta exist in only in India between the Himalayas and Vindhyachal mountains and they no where mentions about facial features or anything whether they rely on the fact Arya is a person of high spiritual merit pure who performs certain rituals which other people don't as u can see
2.103. But he who does not (worship) standing in the morning, nor sitting in the evening, shall be excluded, just like a Sudra, from all the duties and rights of an Aryan

The problem here is that there are many false assumptions about the nature of the “Vedic culture”.
You have essentially fixed the story first that “Indian culture” today was mostly imported from outside by the so called Iranian/Aryans, even though archaeological evidence points otherwise.
There is no significant decline in IVC sites as this video claims, infact archaeologists claim that the post the major drought seen in the Indus River the inhabitants moved to sites like Hastinapur. There is cultural continuity in this. I have to emphasise that there is no literary evidence to suggest that such a cultural shift ever occurred nor is there any archaeological evidence.
Without paying any attention to the findings in Indian Archaeology simply pushing your story with cherry picked facts which clearly show that you have not considered the broader more extensive findings in the subcontinent, is something I consider a disrespect to the Indian scholarship and community.
And the nationalists are right to be angry about this because while outlining the broad framework of Indian history you have considered little to no facts from Indian literature/archeology and mostly considering sources concerning outside of India.
This is not being empirical this is simply bad science.
The word Indian is very misleading. When India is mentioned today, we mean the present boundaries of India. Indian culture is also very misleading word. There is nothing like an exclusive "Indian Culture." India is an artificial country created as the result of Colonialism. And the culture of the people differ from one point to another point. India had different "cultures" down the millenniums. And nothing can be claimed as one exclusive culture. India today is the handing down of practices and way of life that began in the Indus Valley Civilization. There is nothing like a Hindu culture as the word Hindu is the name of a river and not a religion. Vedas written in Indo European language does not reflect a life in the Indian sub continent and neither does the geographical features mentioned therein. Replete with horse sacrifices , it reflects the Yamnaya culture of Central Asia where horses play an important role. And horses are not an indigenous animal of India.
@@vineethjoshy4819 Well you’re reflecting the misunderstanding of western scholars about Indian history. I feel sorry for such Indians who didn’t even take the time to understand our roots.
Firstly, there are many traditions and cultural practices across the Indian subcontinent, yes, but that does not mean that they do not have any unifying historic identity to fall back to.
I can point out several cultural practices which are common throughout India which can be traced back to the so called “Harappan civilisation”. For instance, married women wearing vermillion on the forehead partition is one such cultural practice you can find across India and nowhere else.
Secondly, the Rig Veda is not a book of horse sacrifices. Please understand that. There’s a lot more to it than just that, to give you a perspective, you’re talking abt an element in the Rig Veda which is mentioned few dozen times, when the text in itself is a collection of 10 volumes with over 10,000 verses… do you see how simplistic your interpretation is?
Do you know that not all the Rig Vedic poets prefer to use the word “Arya”. There are atleast 5 different schools of thoughts that exist inside the Collective of poems we call the Rig Veda, each having its own traditions, and disagreements. There are atleast 2 distinctly identifiable language families in the Rig Veda. And here you are painting it all under one word “Arya”, which is hardly used few dozen times in the text spanning 10k+ verses.
Any scholar who has been a traditional student of the Vedas or even any Sanskrit scholar worth his salt will not make such mind numbing claims, only westerners who like to cherry pick evidences and the communist scholarship who quote them for references do this.
The geography mentioned in the Rig Veda is clearly to the EAST of the Indus River.
Moreover there is no archeological evidence whatsoever to prove the claims that there was a sudden cultural shift nor is there any evidence for a shift in the ancestry for the last 10k years. Yet people claim that Hinduism came from outside.
Lastly but not the least, I challenge you to find not 10 or 20 but just 1 literary reference of Indigenous source, from anywhere inside India which hints at an event that is similar to the one which you mention as the “Aryan migration” which is simply a shift in civilisational values, find me one literary reference to such an event, atleast in some sort of word of mouth story of such a event, given what you’re narrating is not just a simple event but a shift in the very fundamentals of the civilisation and it’s direction. Such a massive shift should have had some impact in the cultural memory of these people who live here. And don’t ask me to believe that everybody chose to ignore it and move on.
@@vineethjoshy4819 I seriously insist that you listen to few lectures from real archaeologists, eminent scholars such as BB Lal, who I feel are trying to bring these fundamental facts to light.
It pains me to see even Indians show little interest in this topic to dig a little deeper. It’s not that hard either.
Again I’m stressing on my point here, I’m not claiming that we are some racially pure and superior people or some BS like that. We have had plenty of inbound migrations and outward migrations our culture that we see across India today was shaped by thousands of years of interaction with the outside world, in its own unique ways.
But I disagree with the idea that there was some singular migration into this land which defines the character of what we call as India today.
@@rammani7170 So who are the real archeologists and eminent scholars? People who interpret data to suit their requirements? “Misunderstanding of western scholars about Indian history.” So who is to decide there is no misunderstanding? Especially in these times of intense falsification and distortion of history to suit certain interests? Why are you belittling Indus Valley Civilization calling it so called Harappan Civilization? If you are a true Indian and proud of its history and culture, you would not have said “so called Harappan Civilization.” The leadership of Indian communism are mostly Brahmins and Savarnas who are equally interested in interpreting Indian history to suit their interests. As for the evidence for a shift in the ancestry for the last 10k years , the evidence is present in the genetic make up of the various people of India and the prevalence in various proportions of the so called Aryan DNA R1a. You first study about this and the findings of the DNA results of the 4500 -year-old Rakhigarhi skeletons instead of trying to drown me in confusing verbiage and hollow claims.
@@vineethjoshy4819 1. You think I’m talking here without even going through the recent studies? And sorry but no I’m not belittling anything or anyone here. If you’re offended by facts I’m sorry for you.
2. I gave you one properly eminent scholar professor BB Lal, or Vasant Shinde (who’s the freaking author of the paper you’re quoting here). Listen to their speeches and then come here and give me advise.
3. Ancestry shift? Steppe Migration = Aryan migration? You’re having too much in your plate to prove and too little evidence. Till today the largest source of South Asian genetic ancestry is from the IVC cline the genetic influence of those who you call “Aryan” (which I disagree actually), on the Indian population was never enough to shift the ancestry. You can refer to interpretations from anyone in the Genetic field worth his salt. Nobody will agree with your statement that there was a “migration of ancestry altering proportions”.
The proponents of your so called “Aryan migration”, those geneticist use a circular argument here. For instance Dr. Razib Khan? Claims he’s a neutral investigator of truth but as a Geneticist did he limit his opinion to a Genetic one? No!
Now I agree that everyone has right to his opinion but you cannot use your scholarship as a geneticist to make statements which contradict the findings of Archeologists. That too when your own genetic findings have very little direct evidence to support your claims.
He openly admits that the steppe migration did not have an ancestry shifting level of divergence in population genetics, the dominant ancestry was still the IVC cline, but he goes on to make a claim that “but this migration was not more of a genetic one but a cultural transformation”, now how qualified is a Geneticist to make a claim outside his work area like this? Is there any evidence for major cultural shift? I don’t think so.
Infact even in the so called “Vedic era” there are little to no horse bones found, shall we say that the Aryans never really existed in India, and there’s no such thing as Rig Veda in India today, you might even believe such nonsense.
You people cling on to the one and only SNP that you can find. In the Eyropa

Well it was a moral caste system which was initially ruled by lighter people though it started off religiously than through time did it become a racial caste system
@@Dorkeydaze the lighter people were the descendants of aryans who always thought themselves superior and thus were the ruling castes thats racist from the start
@@StaminatorBladerstop projecting your racist theories on us. Caste system was originally based on ones action(karma) and gunas(quality). And this sort of hierarchy is common in indo european cultures. Later on , it became hierarchal. Has nothing to do with skin color. And viewing everything on the basis of skin color, misses the point completely. For reference read, purusha suktam of the rigveda.

There is NO distinction. The narration of this video is technically and conceptually wrong about nearly everything.

At first I might agree, if it wasn't for knowing and understanding historical patterns. The Turks and the Mongols that arrived during the Middle Ages conquered Central Asia and India. They conquered each other in East Asia, pushing each other. So why would the Arians not have done the same, if that is the logical historical pattern? I disagree with you, because what you say is not logical, but rather sounds politically correct. Not historically sound.
That's correct- and this happened _all over_ . Egypt is *another* good example- at various times it's been conquered by Southern Europeans, Greeks, Central/Northern Europeans, Arabs, Romans, Persians, (and even more ancient Hittites and Hyksos).
India, for itself, has kind of a peculiar geography, so that no big world empires ever came out of India, however India is geographically amenable to being conquered.
From 10,000 BC and even before then, the history of the world is a history of people going to and conquering other places.

*Aryan meant "Noble" in Sanskrutam/ Sanskrit - All Humans whom were highly moral, simple, had jnyana (knowledge and wisdom) and walked the right path throughout her/his life that became beneficial for all was called an "Arya" or "Arya Purush".* As per Sanatana Dharmik scriptures there is no rigid class system and people could align themselves to their professions as they liked and hence called "Varnashrama Dharma" - Varna - Ashrama - Dharma -> Duty as per job or leaning in material life. Moreover the Brahmins/Brahmanas were supposed to live extremely simple (basically destitute), ought to perform prayers for oneself and society and provide free education. Kshatriyas were spiritually enhanced to the level they used to "protect Dharma" , Vaishyas (Merchant/Business class) providing employment opportunities and Shudras were "Service men/women" - Those whom served or worked just like Engineers, Skilled workers, Architects, Designers, Manufacturers etc. These virtues and values were practiced throughout till the 17th - 18th Centuries (pre - colonial era) during the final periods of the Mughal Empire in India. This fact is attested by the Mughals themselves in their Book : *Fatawa - E - Alamgiri written by Naqshbandi scholars on the lives and culture of Indian society in Aurangzeb's period (pre - Maratha era).* The description is very clear. Hence there was economical disparity based differences in social status for over the period of colonial rule as this book of the Mughals was used by the then colonials to target the social fabric of the country with a motive to bend it to their own will. For the most part the colonial experiment was successful and till date Indians identify more with the west than with their culture and themselves.
Yeah! they called themselves noble persons

It looks like your political correctness has prejudiced your views of the Aryan migration into northern India. Recent DNA studies/evidence confirms it.
My Lord you are PCing the crap out of this. Everyone knows that Indians in the North are lighter and primarily Aryan and those in the South are darker and primarily Dravidian. One can see that northern Indians have similar features to Europeans, that the majority in the South do not. Just because racists used this information does not mean it is wrong and admitting it does not devalue Dravidian accomplishments or civility. We KNOW that the Aryans invaded and subjugated the Dravidian people because it is written about in the ancient Sanskrit texts. NO MORE PC BS! Tell History accurately without the social politics. History is the bad and the good;only by seeing what the ancestors did wrong can we assure that the future descendants do not repeat those uncivil abominations.
All the empires that were in the region were the Kurdish empires and the Kurdish tribes of the Sassanians, Medes, and Kutians. The Kurdish ancestors were the Sumerians. But the Iranian, Iraqi, and Turkish occupation state attributed this civilization to themselves, and they have no relation to this civilization. This civilization belongs to the indigenous peoples, the Kurds.
Beautifully done! Actual history that's not suffocated or based on mythology.
No mention of the R1A haplogroup though?
History is being re-written to accomodate American Imperial Ideology of egalitarianism. Aryan meant both "noble" and ethnicity. Its preposterous to believe the learned British were racist but the war like ancient Aryans were color blind Americans, that somehow paradoxically established the caste system. Indians, up to this day, are very ethnocentric and racist. When it is pointed out that the narratives of history are established to serve political objectives the present is no exception, and in the present, it is American ideology that is dominant. Thank America too, for flooding Europe with immigrants, under the cover of UN refugee programs.

Good point. One need not be an Indologist to notice India's stratification is based on color, and this system has roots in Vedic times, pointing to Aryan hostility to darker skin peoples.

European scientists in 18-19c. concluded that people of Caucasus mountains are most pure, strong and beautiful race of people, so white race probably originated there. So white race was called Caucasian. Ironically people of Caucasus also distinguished not only by race but as only non-Aryan ethnicities in huge Indo-European ocean, between Slavs and Iranians
Caucazian is most beatiful and inteligent peoples in Earth
It had nothing to do with purity or beauty. They were obsessed with skull shapes and found that the skull shape they most closely identified with the white race was that most typified by people living in the Caucasus region. Of course today we understand that that is pure nonsense.
@@brucetucker4847 The Caucasus as the origin of humanity and the peak of beauty
In the eighteenth century, the prevalent view among European scholars was that the human species had its origin in the region of the Caucasus Mountains.[22] This view was based upon the Caucasus being the location for the purported landing point of Noah's Ark - from whom the Bible states that humanity is descended - and the location for the suffering of Prometheus, who in Hesiod's myth had crafted humankind from clay.[22]
In addition, the most beautiful humans were reputed by Europeans to be the stereotypical "Circassian beauties" and the Georgian people; both Georgia and Circassia are in the Caucasus region.[23][22] The "Circassian beauty" stereotype had its roots in the Middle Ages, while the reputation for the attractiveness of the Georgian people was developed by early modern travellers to the region such as Jean Chardin.[22][24]
Christoph Meiners' 1785 treatise The Outline of History of Mankind was the first work to use the term Caucasian (Kaukasisch) in its wider racial sense. (click on image for English translation of the text)
The term Caucasian as a racial category was first introduced in the 1780s by members of the Göttingen School of History - notably Christoph Meiners in 1785 and Johann Friedrich Blumenbach in 1795-it had originally referred in a narrow sense to the native inhabitants of the Caucasus region.[25]
In his The Outline of History of Mankind (1785), the German philosopher Christoph Meiners first used the concept of a "Caucasian" (Kaukasisch) race in its wider racial sense. Meiners' term was given wider circulation in the 1790s by many people. Meiners imagined that the Caucasian race encompassed all of the ancient and most of the modern native populations of Europe, the aboriginal inhabitants of West Asia (including the Phoenicians, Hebrews and Arabs), the autochthones of Northern Africa (Berbers, Egyptians, Abyssinians and neighboring groups), the Indians, and the ancient Guanches.[36]
It was Johann Friedrich Blumenbach, a colleague of Meiners', who later came to be considered one of the founders of the discipline of anthropology, who gave the term a wider audience, by grounding it in the new methods of craniometry and Linnean taxonomy.[37] Blumenbach did not credit Meiners with his taxonomy, although his justification clearly points to Meiners' aesthetic viewpoint of Caucasus origins.[38] In contrast to Meiners, however, Blumenbach was a monogenist-he considered all humans to have a shared origin and to be a single species. Blumenbach, like Meiners, did rank his Caucasian grouping higher than other groups in terms of mental faculties or potential for achievement[37] despite pointing out that the transition from one race to another is so gradual that the distinctions between the races presented by him are "very arbitrary".
-----------------
I think it is clear that my words "they thought so.. " is backed by their (leading racologists of time) own words (NOT mine - it would be arrogant)
European scientists - rather *colonial scientists* did everything to please their masters and twisted entire world history. Now that Out of India theory among others backed by science are coming out, academia has already started accepting every other probability there is and come to a distinguished conclusion through proper evidence, research, discussions and debates. *All this they do now by first learning ancient languages - going to the subcontinent, dwelling deep into the works of the ancient world, archaeological sites, pottery etc. and then come to a conclusion which colonial historians were extremely feeble at (not generalizing but in plural).*

@@SponsorShort "The Aryans, a name that meant “noble of birth and race,” migrated from their ancestral home on the Eurasian steppes, crossing the Hindu Kush east of the Iranian Plateau. Travelling in tribal groups of varying sizes over a period of hundreds of years, they set- tled in the land they called “Sapta Sindhu,” or the “land of the seven rivers,” in which they found lush plains for their pastoral lifestyle. They conquered not by barbarity but by overwhelming the indigenous tribes with their sophisticated battle tactics and their swift, spoke-wheeled chariots, battle equipment never before used in the Indus valley."

I think the latest theory for the Harappan decline was earthquake that changed the course of the Sindhu river. The river dried up, with water diverted to the Ganges and Indus. That is why the Ganges is the holy river. It was the river that was enhanced/created when the Sindhu died. It gave the people life who thought they had lost everything.
@Khushal Singh Maurya I think the Saraswati and the Shindu are the same (extinct) river.

No it is no coincidence. It is a well established fact (through the study of ancient DNA) that the Corded Ware culture of northern Germany, Poland, the baltic region, Bielorussia and western parts of Russia/Ukraine was the origin of the populations who later became the Indo-Iranians. The Indo-Iranians are not direct descendants of the step populations who were the founders of the Corded Ware culture (Yamnaya). Instead, the step population pendulum first swung west (Yamnaya -> Corded Ware) and only then it swung back from there (with new DNA admixture acquired in the West - in particular Western Hunter Gatherer DNA - in the baggage).

Thoroughly impressed with the content and narration of this video.
Aryan is a ethnic label used to classify ruling class light skinned people in India. the word itself means pure, and this purity is used to oppress and discriminate the so called impure dark skinned people for 5000 years. where more people than Europe, middle East, Central Asia combined lived and oppressed in India, some how the author is ignorant of this. even though he is obsessed with Sanskrit.

You're evil and racist if you think these things are related.
Whether we like it or not racial alignment is one of the strongest forces in the world and has been the cause of perpetual confrontation, wars and discrimination between different people speaking different languages from the time of creation till today. You can see it everywhere. It is singular, crude and inclusive. Outsiders literally have no place in these racial circles. It is exclusively for people of a single race. I am a supporter of the Invasion theory. I am also working on the decipherment of the Indus script. There are more than a thousand Indus sites in north-western part of the Indian sub-continent. Many of the ruins are almost intact even after 4000 years. The foundations are so strong that you can reconstruct houses and make them livable. My question is that they are not mere ruins, they were homes where people lived, children played, people lived here and raised families. But no one seems to be asking where have these people gone? The regular answers are: floods, climate change, drought, rivers changing their course and deforestation destroyed the Indus culture which was as large as western Europe but nothing happened to the incumbents(Vedic/Aryan people) even after living in India for almost 3500 years. I find it impossible to believe this stuff . Can anyone help me?
@Aurangzeb, Corona E Azam You have said some amazing things. I really wish the people in the south are the descendants of the Indus people, but unfortunately no one has any idea who they really are even though they speak more than twelve languages and no one refers to the Indus people as their ancestors. So there is a big gap.
@Aurangzeb, Corona E Azam I had been an amateur military historian for many years and I have also followed many wars fought from 1971 onwards on radio the world over. I deem human beings more of brutes and less than animals. Regardless of their color they have an active inner core that seeks domination and revenge. The bitter truth is that there can be no racial unification. Added to this is the linguistic and religious fanaticism that is fed on the fuel of hatred and promoted by powers to be. Humans are essentially brutes, they are very intelligent, cunning and ruthless. The last line is not mine, it is the anthropologically definition of Homo sapiens sapiens(us). Please check it. So color and complexion are of no consequence.
Mlecca is actually pronounced as "Mlechchha"
It would seem this video starts from an vague premise that I feel should be explained more throughly.
The idea of ethnicity has been around for as long as mankind has been on Earth, its the concept of ethnicity that is not the same thing as it was in the past because it changes over time as we redifine ourselves we do it for others as well.
In the ancient world it used to be intrinsically linked not to class but to nationhood. And the border of the nation was not the empire but the city. Ancient people's could see themselves as brothers but never as the same.
That's why Semites were such nationalists despite all living in the same place. In that context being Iranian was as alien to Persians as being Latin or Greek.
This is also why the Greeks had a distinct cathegory for blond people called "yellow" yet people like Achilles or Alexander were considered Greek despite being blond.
Foreigners weren't just different phisically they were alien in culture and the only people equal to you were the ones living in the same city. Hence why Socrates was a considered a foreigner despite living a few miles beyond the borders. And its not that much different between infamous gardner Sargon of Akkad and his king Ur-Zababa.
It would take humanity until the late middle ages with the Absolute Monarchs that gave birth to maritime empires to have nations of equals all across the board.
thanks gamer
technically etnos was a Greek term, and has a history of about 2500-2800 years... but there is evidence the Egyptians considered race on the table of nations as well as other sources like the Indian Epics.
ETHNIC THOR. You talk such rubbish
@@user-ud7ei6zv7i I never went into full detail about the haplogroups and such so I find what you're telling me fascinating. I agree on A LOT of things probably even more than I realize at first glance even. Except I disagree in some minor issues.
Technically, the widespread nomadic Scythians relationship with the Classical Greeks predated Alexander the Great by Centuries. And it was deep enough to have Scythain iconography not just in Greek art during the Golden Century but in the sacred Parthenon itself.
Ilyrians on the other hand, never expanded to such extent going from Northern Italy to upper Greece and it is possible that they had reached Macedonians but not Thessaly since historically speaking, Ilyrians lived further North and were said to clash with and form alliances with the Etruscans against protoCelts from Central Europe. It seems much more plausibly to me that blond hair in Thessaly comes from a much earlier preAnatolian period and is not Pelasgian but Chalcolithic or even Neolithic in origin.
Ilyrian tech however, might as well have reached all of Greece since the Spartan already had a variant of the Ilyrian helmet when in the Peloponese by 8th Century BC.
As far as DNA is concerned, mainland Acheans came from Cycladic Minoans from circa 2800 BC to 2400 BC whom themselves came from from Anatolian peoples from around 6000 BC. I recall a study done in Crete with bodies from around 3300 BC, from 2007 I believe, which sugested that they share the same DNA with modern day peoples from the island. Likewise genetically speaking, Classical Greeks were indeed decentants of the so called Mycenean Acheans (study from 2017) but they also kept their culture as a basis of their own and somehow Hellenized ( impossed it ) the rest of the Aegean Sea.
However, Anatolian peoples had A LOT of interaction with Semithic peoples after the Chalcolithic ended thus making them remarkably different from the Acheans both genentically and culturally speaking, and more similar to Bronze Age Pakistan than Bronze Age Greece, which is why Semitic Sumerians were keen to trade with Harappan peoples from that far back into the Bronze Age. Although their heads of empires did form a brotherwhood between eachother, according to letter transcipts, it was no different than between the Egyptians and themselves, meaning it was more of an honorary title for important peoples, heads of state / government officials, rather than a familiar bond of an ethnic origin of some sort.
At this point I'd also like to mention Armenians are also a very interesting group since the were a horse riding steppe dwelling people reaching the heartland of Europe (modern day Armenia) well into the late Bronze Age. But basically this tells me they were at the very edge of the Hallstatt sedentary peoples and had a very strong connection with preScythian Aryans/Iranians. The Mitani took horses from the Armenians and came up with the war chariot tech and it was through this vehicle how the great Empires of the Bronze Age reached their peak in splendor, including the Mycenean Acheans.
The history of how both, Minoans and Hellenic Greeks, were able to survive the Bronze Age collapse is remarkable. They basically kept retreating further away from the coast and kept building higher and higher up in the mountains to places which were seemingly impossible to conquer by the SeaPeoples, and finally after they were gone, they gradually returned and reclaimed their lands, Pan Helenism was syill a reality but it had been so long that they lacked a written common language, and by the 8th Century BC when they had already fully recovered, and were fighting against eachother while amassing considerable armies, but keeping a Pan Helenic sentiment which could undoubtedly trace back to those frightful humble recluses from Dark Ages after the Bronze Age Collapse that eventually lead them to best the mighty Persians in the Archaic age with a little help from the Scythians previously weakening the heart of the Persian Empire course.

@@descendedofrigvedicclans2216 In 2005, K. Thangaraj and his colleagues at CCMB published their findings about the origin of Andaman islanders in the journal Science. The Onge turned out to have surprisingly unmixed origins. They had likely lived isolated in the islands since the arrival here of the first group of humans out of Africa. There were mutations in their mtDNA that were found nowhere else in the world. These mutations must have originated here and not spread. The Onge were an untouched link to the earliest humans who settled the planet.
Almost all Indian groups had inherited varying portions of their ancestry from a population related to western Eurasians. Most Indians alive today are descended from a mixture of two very different populations, Reich and colleagues reported in Nature in 2009 based on a study of 25 ethnic groups. These two populations-the red and green of the earlier analogy-were given the names Ancestral North Indians (ANI) and Ancestral South Indians (ASI). The ASI, likely aboriginal inhabitants of India since no trace of them is found outside the subcontinent, were a sister population of the Onge. The two must have diverged after being separated, one on the mainland, one on the islands. The ANI showed genetic similarities with Europeans, Middle Easterners, and Central Asians. Some ANI ancestry was present in almost all Indian groups, but the percentage was found to be greater in the north of India and lesser in the south-for example, Kashmiri Pandits could trace about 70 per cent of their ancestry to the ANI people, and the Mala, a Dalit community from Andhra Pradesh, around 40 per cent. Broadly, groups that spoke IndoEuropean languages and were traditionally considered upper-caste had a larger ANI component. No groups in mainland India were seen with only ASI ancestry. The Onge were the only group studied that showed absolutely no trace of ANI ancestry. At some time in the past, these two very different populations had inter-bred, and at some later point the castes, clans, communities and tribes we see now had formed as endogamous groups that only married within themselves.

Arya Dharma is the lineage of the followers of the Sanatana Dharma now called as Hinduism. These ritual practices are still continuing in modern day India. Enchanting the Vedic scriptures. Performing Agni rituals. Memories the Vedic hymns as in ancient oral traditions are few of the Vedic customs which we have been following. The Sanskrit is our language and we are the only true authentic descendants of the Vedic Aryans. Those who don't follow the Sanatana Dharma can not be called as Arya.
Present day Iranians are not the Aryan!
@علي ياسر which Iranians were made kings please provide evidences. In the early mandalas of Rig Veda there was a mention of the great war of ten kings with the king Sudas in which the ten kings lost this battle to the King Sudas . One of the ten kings was known as Parshwnatha who later migrated to Iran and his tribe later came to be known as Persians. The term Arya Dharma has been exclusive to the people following Sanatana Dharma. Those who differed from the Dharma are otherwise.
@علي ياسر why is your name in chinese?
Light skin being associated with nobility could be to do with nobles not having to go and work in the fields etc, and so not catch the sun's rays on their skin. Someone with lighter skin, even a stranger, might therefore be assumed to be somehow noble, in a kind of backwards logic. It does seem to be something that occurs in many cultures and might be related to things like women wearing the veil in medieval and early modern europe, and in Islamic and other middle eastern and central Asian cultures. So if there is reference to lighter skinned Aryans, it may be simply a description related to this class-based phenomenon.

You will never be an aryan pashtun ape
Aryan Invasion theory is only a propaganda of the west
Based on this video it seems to me that Aryan was an ethnic marker but in an older sense, referring purely to culture rather ancestry.
For example Slovyan/Sloven, Slav, literally something like “worded” refers to one who can speak (in proto Slavic), as opposed to a Nemec, a mute (one who does not speak proto Slavic), thus the Frank Samo or some earlier Goth or Scythian who assimilates into a Slavic culture and speaks the language would be considered Sloven.
Similarly someone who is Teutonic is someone who is of the people, but the people are “people who live like us” not “people who descend from the same genetic ancestor group as us”.
To the Greeks or Romans also, a Barbarian was one who did not speak the language of a civilized culture (Greek, Latin) and does not live a civilized lifestyle (lives outside of large cities, wears pants instead of robes, drinks beer instead of wine, is a citizen of a civilized state like Athens, Sparta, or Rome etc.) by this definition a black person or a blonde person (seen as a race distinct from the white Mediterraneans) can be civilized as long as they live like a Greek or Roman and obtain citizenship. Among the Greeks ancestry mattered more than in Rome, your parents both had to be born in the state for you to be a citizen, but even then ethnicity/genetics weren’t important, a Phoenician, a Celt or a Nubian could live in Athens and have a kid there and that non Greek kid would still be a citizen & therefore civilized. In Rome of course it was even easier with military service being a path to citizenship & from there all you needed to do was assimilate culturally.
So it looks like Aryan was an ethnic marker in that sense. Do you share our moral values, pray to our Gods, etc? If so it doesn’t matter if you’re a tan guy with a hair colour range from black, through brown, to red like the migrating Aryans, a dark skinned descendant of Dravidians, or a tan but purely black haired Elamite, you’re Aryan.
Am I correct in this understanding?
This is also my understanding of the term, and as you observed, it fits with other Indo-European groups as well.
Aryans were those who offered 5 times prayers daily, in the direction of Athens.

Let me cut your story short and pointed as much I have read from eminent Indian historians that there is nothing such like aryans race existed, it was just a character of being a noble man that is even mentioned in mahabharata etc, recent archeological discovery have found rakhigadi which much older than hadapa datinga more near 9000 old in Indian state of Haryana and traces of river saraswati mentioned in rigved which due to tectonic activities changed its course and later dried up which date back to more than 8000 years old and yes proof of agriculture near Varanasi city at the bank of river Ganga dating more than 11000 years old by dating method , and about persia - it is given in rigved that out of many sects in India, parshav sect who use to worship fire migrated to persia which later became Iran ( not fully proven yet) . Now coming to Williams Jones and Max Muller so these two are most pathetic persons who messed Indian history without knowing vedic sankrit they translated vedas and molded it to show superiority of Europeans because they were not able to digest that there can be civilization which were more thriving and developed than them so under influence of Catholic Church they corrupted our Indus civilization history and yes it's present in its possible raw form just fact is that western world don't like listening us now but we know what is true and everyone will accept it eventually.
Let the Catholic Church out of it! Even if it is indeed the mother of most evils, this kind of theories come from British- Anglicans colonialists and German Protestant political-philosofers ( crazy in love with male blonde peasants in uniform: their fashion taste brought them to start wars just to watch them attired like that all the time). Nothing to do here with the Vatican, who learned already one thing or two when it divided the World globe just to give a Half to Spain, the other to Portugal, this is why they were not that vocal about!
Rakhigarhi is not 9000 yrs old it's part of mature of Harappan age and is this somewhere from 3000BC to 2000BC.
Also the skeletons found in Rakhigarhi have no steppe DNA but today steppe DNA is present in populations of north-western India and Pakistan, now from where did that steppe DNA came ??
Well it came from Aryan migration/invasion, Rakhigarhi itself proves Aryan migration/invasion.
Also Europeans scientists and scholarly individuals since renaissance have kept themselves away from churches and have looked at classical Greco-Roman civilization for knowledge, a non-christian civilization so there is no need to think that they had thought of "how can it be non-christian civilization". In every possible way ancient Aryans were going to predate Christianity so for sure they didn't had such mindset.
@@craftyunicorn4291 hello , My point is that Rakhigarhi site is near 3000BC old but they found DNA which matches ancient Iranian DNA dating 9000 years old so it disapproves Aryan invasion theory and sarswati remnants too , you can check articles about this available not internet so nothing to hide

How does it disapproves Aryan migration/invasion theory ??
The Iranian gene you are talking about was pre-indo-european western Asiatic gene. The population of IVC was a mixture of South Asian hunter gatherers and agrarians from Iranian Plateaus.
But the steppe nomadic gene that is identified with Aryan gene is completely absent from IVC population, but today it's present in populations of Pakistan and north-western India so there was indeed an Aryan migration/invasion.

"I am Darius the great king, king of kings, king of countries containing all kinds of men, king in this great earth far and wide, son of Hystaspes, an Achaemenid, a Persian, son of a Persian, an Aryan, having Aryan lineage."
I am jimmy, of minnesota, having middle class lineage????
"I am of noble lineage" totally makes sense as a sentence. More to the point, you should actually look at it in the ancient Iranian--a language you cannot speak, so maybe should not spout off about it on the internet. (I can't either BTW, which is why I defer to scholars who can and have spent their whole career studying the matter.)

as an Iranian, i can easily say that you're wrong.
Indo Aryans means mixture of exotic that's migrated Iran culture, trade and the Sanskrit language. Nowadays become cultural trend of Hinduisum, dominating on Indigenous Dravidians culture, trade and languages.
Read history and you will quickly realize that the majority of it was written by foreigners and this is taken as historical truth. The local history passed down in many cases through songs, poetry, drawings and verbal narration is considered not valid or not true.Travel when possible, meet local people,listen and observe their traditions visit the small local museums and formulate your own opinions.
Its clear from comments section that many of us Indians want only the "Out of India theory" (OIT) and see AMT as a European conspiracy. Anyone who disagrees even with counter evidence is slandered in the most un-Hindu manner. Interestingly, when the same foreign historians unearthed and praised Indus Valley Civilization, deciphered Brahmi script, made Sanskrit/Buddhism/Yoga/Indian Temple architecture popular, we loved it!! No questions asked!!
It’s an interesting display of narcissistic "we are better than you / we are victims" bipolar attitude.
Science says mixed race happens when mammals of purer race (नस्ल या जाति) mingle. Same thing can be seen by pet lovers (eg. Interbreeding between different types (race if you will) of dogs). But for these OIT supporters, reverse is true. Aryans in Steppes region were created from Mixed race Indians (Aryans + natives) who travelled to Steppes. Go figure!!
I installed DNA test R1a output The origin is Kurdish Aryan, but with the Arab and Turkish occupation, his skin color has changed, especially Turkey's Kurds city in Dersim Adıyaman Malatya is mostly white skinned and has the R1 gene

The name Aryan first appeared in Iran The name Aryanzanti is mentioned in the Medes Kabi, which is touted as the ancestor of the Kurds.
50% J1-J2 DNA in today's Kurds
For example, there is 50% R1A DNA.
The R1A rate is VERY HIGH among Kurds who believe in the Alawite and Yazidi religion.
because it didn't mix with the Arabs

As a linguist it’s a far fetched idea to described the Arians and protoarians as a non ethnic group, and only a some kind of ‘noble people’ with no common or cultural traits. The effort of culturally neutralize the idea of an Aryan people is more a reflection of your own projections on culture based on the result of the distorsión of these ideas in Europe in the last two centuries. There is no relation between the historical Aryans and your own ideas of race and culture.
