Emmarcee, why don’t you write a piece to try to convince me of your idea of an Aryan India? If you think that I use high sounding words, well I can’t help myself. The English taught me well. Even if you think it is propaganda! Remember, the truth must be protected by a bodyguard of lies. If you don’t know that simple maxim , then you should not indulge in writing. Looking forward to your disgusted reply.

Horse bones in Indus valley? and the proven point? that Aryans did not invade? and horses existed?
I am disgusted.

Ever since the discovery of the IVC, the rush to Aryanize its society and culture has

filled books, papers, media forums and other such articles and such entities has

funded and encouraged historians and writers to let loose their imaginations in order

to rewrite the history of India. The fierce debate whether the IVC is Aryan or not

has opened up emotions and a stirring of nationalistic feelings among Indians of

different social and political persuasions and has led to the rewriting of some history

books. Even though the undertaking and exposing of the vast archaeological

empire of the Indus still remains buried below the ground, opinions and speculations

still persist that further and more radical change be made to the history of India.

The proven point that the Aryans did not invade India and that horses existed in its

society are two areas juxtaposed between the migrationist theories and those who

proposed an “Aryan India” Between this sliver of Aryan and Indus woodwork, lies

the heart of the matter, its linch-pin— the horse. Whoever can prove that the horse

existed at the Indus empire will cap a belated crowning glory and achieve at the

same time a kind of immortality in Indian history. The playing with historical dates

like pushing them back further in time sounds like Russian roulette in order to

achieve the inevitable and if such a hand can be played and the horse can be

accommodated to form Indian history as among other things, thus far are historians

are willing to go. The claims of historians and other writers of horse remains has so

far has not been proven or recognized by some of local and international academia,

even though such claims have been taken up by readers of different sorts of books

and articles. The horse have remained evasive to not only archaeologists who

would know one when they have analyzed its bones but to those who advocate its

existence at the Indus. The so called tentative discovery of horse bones in the cities

of the Indus, is the one weakness of those who want to weld Aryan history and Indus

history together. This, I think will fail. The Indus civilization does not have a

mythology that speaks of the existence of horse and chariot. First of all, all peoples

have from their beginnings tales of mythology and from this, their civilizations are

born, their society evolves, their beliefs entrenched and their livelihood maintained.

Without these a people may not survive as a strong entity such like the Greeks and

the Indian civilizations. Mythology is the fountain of a people, where a kind of fairy

tale comes down to generation after generation, where images of the mythology are

graven in the minds of its citizens and from which stories of daring and derring do

are told. Greek mythology is filled with horses such as Pegasus and Arion, so we

know that the Greeks knew about horses, Helios, the Sun god and the horses and

also the Trojan horse. Our Hindu civilization also has a mythology of horses of the

Sun, as well as other places mentioned in the Vedas and the Swat culture is one of

the first places that the horse appeared in India. But can that be said of the Indus

civilization? Where is the mythology of the horse and chariot in its ancient belief

system? The belligerent screaming and writing by academia of horse bones in the

Indus does not prove anything. There is not a shred of evidence of a horse culture

or part of a mythologic reference to a horse or chariot in the history of the writing of

the Indus nor in its society and the isolated claims of nationalistic writings has no

foundation whatsoever. Claims of horse presence in the absence of a mythology in

comparison with Hindu or Greek is not only a failure, but a historical greed to fulfill

nationalistic grandeur for India which would be penitently false. I am sure Hindus

would not like to incorporate a false version of historical data in their proud history.

I personally would abhor such a travesty.
