>sacrifices of horses and burials
In her fiction novel, The King Must Die, Mary Renault, a scholar of Ancient Greece describes a horse ritual sacrifice in Greece that is eerily similar to ancient Aryan/Vedic practices.

>the swastika meant something entirely different and Im sure much more benign.
It still does, not only in India, but also in Nepal and in the Buddhist societies of SE Asia.
In the West, the Nazi association reigns supreme.

The American “indians” also had the swastika. It is a simple enough symmetrical design to be independently designed around the world, I’m sure.

It is a simple enough symmetrical design to be independently designed around the world, Im sure.But if you believe in Panspermia, the process where the more people breed the more room they need, you understand as they spread they took their traditions with them. Worldwide. But unscrupled people always pop up and twist these traditions into some perversion for their own nefarious purposes. Kinda sorta like when I was a little kid and we had Christmas. But now we have The Holiday Season. ;-)

I have books many, many years old which trace the Celtic and Germanic people to the Russian steppes.
Same goes for proto-Indoeuropean languages.
The term “Ayran” does not appear widely in my soures.
Iranians like to call themselves “Ayrans” to distinguish themselves from Arabs.
Hitler and fellow travellors refered to “Ayrans.”

“I don’t know” - the response of an honest scholar.
Great point.

quibble, panspermia refers to the seeding of life (or its components) from space; the word you’re looking for is probably diffusion.

Actually there is no evidence for any Aryan Invasion. The Indus valley civilisation (of Caucasian Dravidians), died out probably due to environmental reasons at the same time the Minoan civilisation and the Hittite civilisations collapsed. There are no mass burial sites and the cities are not destroyed, just abandoned. The Swastika has always been a symbol of continuity just like the Chakra -- the Nazis only made it into a war symbol.
A closer reading of the Vedas sees that the war against the Dasyus seem more to be a war between Indics (who raised Devas over Asuras in their pantheon) and Iranics (who raised Ahuras like Ahura Mazda over Daevas in THEIR pantheon). The Ramayana could be interpreted as an ARyanic-Dravidian war in Ceylon, but the Tamils were never in Ceylon until British times, they concentrating more on their Empires in Indonesia (the Srivijaya Empire etc).

Pakistanis are basically delusional. They now try to insist that they are not Indian at all but the descendents of Arabs who came to India — the Arabs of course laugh at this and at them. They also, quite contradictorily try to say that they are “pure” Aryans, while Indians are descendents of Dravidians (and completely forgetting that Dravidians ARE Caucasians). Pakis are brain-dead idiots — the disease causing the vacuum between their ears is islam.
