<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->People in north and south India belong to the same gene pool<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->What's sad is that today's Indians are so distanced from traditional knowledge by their Suckular education that we need genetic or archaeological or other results to tell us what we already knew.
It's the AIT Europeans who ought to be taken by surprise at such news, not Indians. (I don't think most people here were surprised by this)
And yet, Indians today need to read such things in communist papers before we accept the validity of our own Hindu records on the matter.
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->The conclusion of some historians that Aryans came here 15,000 years before Christ does not hold water.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->Well, the article consistently mentions 15,000 bce. Either:
(a) The reporter got it consistently wrong and wrote 15,000 bce where the researchers had indicated 1500 (quite likely, considering the low IQ people must have to write in today's Hindu paper).
(b) The researchers meant 1500 but consistently misstated it as 15,000 (less likely)
(c ) The research had checked for as far back as 15,000 bce (or even beyond) and the results showed that even back then us Indians in the N & S were one people.
I secretly hope it's (c ) - then there was no AIT that occurred any time between the present and 17000 bp or even more years ago.
The article also seems to indicate that Central Asia and even Europe were at one point considered as potential origin regions for the human <i>species</i>. I didn't know that. Or maybe that's just the reporter's misunderstanding.
Just one question, as Christ did not appear to have existed, how long ago is 15,000 years before Christ? <!--emo&:unsure:--><img src='style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='unsure.gif' /><!--endemo--> That must be one of the many reasons why they invented bce and ce, I suppose. <!--emo&

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Geneticists in Pakistan concluded that people living in the northern and southern regions of India and those in the West Asian region were from the same gene pool, he added.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->Of course all Indians (N & S), Afghans and Iranians are related. But I guess that was a big surprise to the Indology department.
Sometimes I feel humanity is wasting its time on researching things we already knew (just to refute the troublesome people whose minds are stuck on the wrong paradigm) instead of focussing on other things. We could be spending the time trying to get Cold fusion to work or something.
