Aryan Invasion of India: Myth or Reality?

  • DNA evidence has shed new light on the origins of the Indian people, the Hindu religion and the Sanskrit language. Pastoralists of the Andronovo /Sintashta culture from the Bronze age steppe invaded India from the North West and brought Indo-European languages to the Indian subcontinent. These pastoralists were ethnically North Eastern European people, and they mixed with Indians to create the modern genetic diversity of India. This theory has been developed over 200 years, and has often been attacked as a colonial fable or even as Nazi propaganda, but now genetic science has vindicated the Victorian scholars who said the roots of the Aryans lay in the Corded Ware culture of Europe.

    What most Indians who challenge this theory fail to understand is the fact that these proto-Indo-Europeans didn’t come from (Western) Europe.
    They migrated west and invaded Europe exactly as they migrated southeast, towards Iran and India.
    In Europe they mixed in various proportions with pre-existing West European hunters-gatherers and Early European farmers, giving birth to the ethnic mosaic that is Europe today. Exactly the same way as today’s India sees a very diverse genetic pool, where Aryan component is just one of many.
    So this is NOT a justification for past British rule over India at all.
    The common roots in Yamnaya culture between Europe and Iran or India are more linguistic or paleo-cultural than genetic.

    3. Since this video came out we have discovered the origin of the specific subclade of R1a that is found in Asia and it is among the Fatyanovo culture in Western Russia, which is itself a regional variant of the Corded Ware culture. Therefore central Asian Aryans of Sintashta and Andronovo culture were to some extent descended from the Fatyanovo culture.

      Are you people serious?? The Aryan Invasion Theory is actually British Imperial propaganda, it's actually in reverse. They devised the theory in order to justify their unilateral looting of resources from Hindu soil. The Jat are the ancient ruling and warrior race of India, native to india and indigenous to it. They are the actual Aryan race that the British try to usurp as being European via bought out propaganda. Even the genetic basis is not congruent to the theory: haplogroup F is the parent to groups GHIJK and originates in North India, and spreads from India to Europe, not from Europe to India. Aryan also originates from Vedic literature, which this propaganda artist fails to quote, and defines the native Hindus as Aryan, and definitions of Hind and Arya Vrata are identical pointing solely to North Inida, not the Steppe. It was the ancient Jat kings of North India that pushed west all the way to north and south Europe, they were called different names based on the region: Get or Getae in the black sea region, Got Geat and Jute in Nordic lands, Goth by Romans, Zaths by Arabs, and Yuezhi by the Chinese. This dude is lying he is just furthering imperial British propaganda, they constructed the Aryan invasion theory backwards because the British thought they could buy their stay in Hind Arya forever, India by the way is a foreign British term, Arya and Hind are the native names for India. Once their money ran out from fighting WW 2 in 1945, they couldn't use their bought out puppet kings to keep Hindu Nationalists at bay and quickly packed away back to Britain in 1947. Aryan Invasion from the west is a total lie, they'll use various theories to support it, none of which are supported by history, genetic flow, or Vedic literature.

      With PIE languages, basically the entire language is pretty similar in the same way that the word "father" is similar.
      But, the question you asked is a good one, and I can't help but think that maybe, just maybe the Tocharians had influence on the Chinese language's development, and maybe "Baba" is derived from the Tocharian "Pacer".

The skeletons likely belong to victims of climate catastrophe or some internal disturbances during the gradual desertion of Harappan cities

      @@therealissacnewton I'm a Hindu, and secure enough in my identity to not be threatened by real history, or to use a fake account with a Christian name to spread propaganda for that matter. And I don't have to be a Hindu to know about Kurukshetra. I know Christians and Muslims better versed in Indian history and Hindu mythology than the likes of you will ever be. Second, There are publishers affiliated with the RSS like Suruchi Publishers who are based in the RSS head offices, so maybe learn more about your own organisation. Whatever you said about Kurukshetra has no basis in real history or archeology. BB Lal's excavations at the site produced no evidence of a battle on the scale described. Third, as far as the date of the battle is concerned, if you're referring to the date Aryabhat assigned, it's even earlier than 3000BC and, again, it has been repudiated repeatedly by modern archeology and historical research. The battle of the ten kings in the Rig Ved, which is the earliest source for Vedic life and history, is dated to no more than 1500BC. The Mahabharata is a mythological epic which very indirectly has its origins in real history, in India and perhaps partly outside it, which was written down from bardic traditions of uncertain antiquity possibly a millennium after the Indo Aryans first came. Excavations at Hastinapur and Indraprastha, at the Purana Qila complex near where I live in Delhi, have produced no evidence of the bustling urban areas described in the Mahabharat, only some small settlements. The Mahabharat is of deep spiritual and cultural value to me not just as a Hindu but as an Indian, and as an educated person I see no need to invent some dubious historicity to enhance its value. Cite some serious sources instead of people like Shinde, who bullied David Reich into obfuscating the terminology for early Indian ethnic groups to suit the Sangh's agenda, to support your outrageous assertions and then we'll talk. If you can't do that, stick to spreading your pseudo history in whatsapp groups. Finally, you're no one to say I've been offensive to my religion. Hinduism's core is the pursuit of truth, and you're an adharmi for consciously or unconsciously propagating falsehoods. And as for being rude to the RSS, that's my constitutional right and it'll be a cold day in hell when I allow politeness to prevent me from calling those clowns what they are: clowns.

      this is an indian institute.
      i know why so many people are riled up. its not the divide and rule, as so called aryans of india are very much indians as rest of them, and nobody can throw them out.
      the main reason which most people understand but will never say out loud is
      1) this proves the vedic religion is outsider religion, just like islam and christianity. so the criteria of gaining power by nationalist hindutva agenda, flops. and nobody wants to share the power.
      2) fewer people realise this but they do. and it will be hurtful to many hindus.(sad fact, but it is what it is) the vedic religion has been discarded by balkans, most of old europe and iran as mythology, while hindus still believe in it.
      here i want to point out that its vedic religion, not hindu religion and maximum damage of this hypothesis when proven right ,will be to brahmins, who derive their power due to religion. thats why u see only brahmins with the loudest voice against it.

      True, though linguistic and DNA as well as archeological evidence points to a homeland around the Caucasus mountains and Euro-Asian steppes. I remember some archeologist that studied caves in the mountains/hills that sprawl all over Euro-Asia stated that the proto Indo Europeans were very large cave dwellers during the ice age and we're well over six foot tall, from the height of the paintings on the ceilings of caves. The caves they were showing on film are in France I believe. More amusingly my mother tongue Pashto is very similar to French. We also have similar features to Celts as well as a propensity for auburn/red hair which supposedly indicates we are quite inbred. The genetic theory states that blonde hair/blue eyes was a gene-mutation that took place from inbreeding light skinned but dark haired Proto-Indo-Europeans and Red hair from inbreeding blondes. Not sure why Sweden isn't ginger yet but Scotland and Ireland are. 😁

If the former, then you can start by learning the etymology of Arya and the meaning of its cognates. You cannot project a sanskrit meaning back on to an older language!

These Indian epics are said to be anything from 10 to 100 thousand yrs old and i know there is a huge gap as there are many many versions where it gets very complicated but the general view is that not only these epics but other ancient indian texts are the oldest on this planet. Also there are recent discoveries in India where chariots and swords were found which dates to 6-8 thousand yrs and clearly debunks the Aryan invasion theory.

    The last point about the Dravidian people not being primordial but just an earlier group to enter South Asia, preceding the Aryans by a few centuries to maybe a millennia, makes a total sense from a cultural perspective. Even today there are tribes in India called Adivasis (literally meaning "old inhabitants"). Surprisingly, some of these groups still have languages isolates related to aboriginal languages (australo-asiatic group). These people are probably the first group to inhabit the region about as far back as 60-65kya (after Mt. Toba). Later the Dravidian people came & settled into what became the Indus valley civilization. They developed the precursor beliefs of Hinduism such as yoga, Shiva etc. Much later after that the Aryan people came in & mixed into the remnants of this civilization, bringing the Indo-European languages, and incorporating their own Indo-European god like Indra, Agni etc into the pre-existing religious framework already in place, creating the basis of the Hindu pantheon of the Vedic age.

      The Indic influence on south-east Asia was predominantly from South India through the Pallava dynasty and the Chola empire, both of which existed in the common era although Indian culture began contact with and in turn, influencing south-east Asia from around the 3rd century BCE. Is it not more likely that your paternal haplogroup may have been from an unknown ancestor during the Dutch colonial period?

      @@whoisjoe5610 yes, youre right, the Bengali, Mahayana buddhist Pala kingdom did also have cordial relations and influenced Srivajayan society which ruled Sumatra at the time. That was short lived however and the Pala were never an occupying force. Their influence was later greatly diminished following the Chola invasion of Srivajaya which, although the Cholas also didn't constitute an occupying force and went mainly for plunder and to break the kingdom's maritime monopoly in the Malacca straits, did end up having a greater imposition on Srivajayan society than the Palas - with Chola nobles accepted into the Srivajayan court, Chola subjects conducting diplomacy with China on behalf of Srivajaya, and also in the hereditary records with some Malay princely dynasties retaining Cholan or Chulan as their dynastic surnames.
      I would still have thought the OP's R1a1a2 paternal haplogroup would more likely be the result of an unknown Dutch ancestor during tge colonial period, seeing as intermarriages and even rape was not uncommon between occupying European colonial forces around the world.
      Furthermore, Indonesia has a recorded history of a mixed Indonesian-European group (the Indos) who are a remnant of the Dutch colonial period. There was also a great stigma attached to the Indos in the post-colonial/independence era so even if the OP's paternal family had not simply forgotten about the European side, may have conveniently brushed it under the carpet in the post-colonial period out of fear of prejudice.

Many wild animals including apes found across Africa, South America & Asian continents. How did wild animals like elephants, tigers, lion, crocodile, bears, etc came to India?? Is thr any (fake) theory to explain?? or "Aryans" took all these animals with them during migration? Lolz

      @Neelesh 10 "20%-30% of Indian mtDNA haplotypes belong to West Eurasian haplogroups, and the frequency of these haplotypes is proportional to caste rank, the highest frequency of West Eurasian haplotypes being found in the upper castes."
