Now India is Atlantis, and the Oryans of India "Proto Vedics" of the IVC are the ancestors of Europeans. Good grief.
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Hancock presented his hypothesis of the Indian Atlantis on a note-pad he taken on route to Goa:
Hypothesis. (Oh no, not another hypothesis!)
The Indus-Sarasvati civilization, the development of which archaeologists have already traced back 9000 years, has an earlier episode of hidden prehistory. It was founded by the survivors of a lost Indian coastal civilization destroyed by the great floods at the end of the Ice Age. Such floods occurred many times between 15,000 and 7,000 years ago, but a particularly bad episode is attested in high salinity levels in the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal between 12,000 and 10,000 years ago. . . .
The survivors who established the early villages practiced a âproto-Vedicâ religion that they had brought with them from their inundated homeland and probably spoke an early form of Sanskrit.
There were secular rulers but the real leadership of the new communities remained vested down the generations in the brotherhood of sages whose forefather had escaped the deluge â the lineage of Vedic masters whose task it was to preserve and transmit a precious body of antediluvian knowledge. (Hancock, 113).
In the Near East, Egyptian scribes told of a forgotten epoch in the history of man when the gods ruled the world, and later by powerful overseers called the companions of Horus. But it is only in the East, on the Indian subcontinent, that we catch a glimmer of the true âcradle of civilization.â In India it was called the Rama Empire that reigned, according to myth, some 50,000 years ago. As this paper had discussed, many of the attributes of this civilization, specficically in Harappa indicate that such a civilization is perhaps an actuality.
<b>The ruins of the ancient Indus Valley Civilization shed new light on the rise of civilization.</b> Excavations have shown a technologically sophisticated culture of unimagined wealth and power that harkens back to the idea of Atlantis. <b>It is very posssible that this culture, lost to the sands of time for five thousand years, may prove to be our dierct cultural ancestor. It is unsettling for Europeans to consider that a predominately dark-skinned Asian community could have preceeded the west and established the basic fundamentals of organized society.</b> The birthplace of writing, forever tied with cuneiform script found on clay tablets in Mesopotamia, may have proved to be an ingenious copy of another, far earlier innovation.
The archaeological evidence for an ancient civilization of far antiquity, and a stupendous level of sophistication is clearly at hand here. There is no doubt in this authorâs mind that further revelations await archaeologists in the not so distant future.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->Wait wait. Didn't the christian west delude itself with their Oryans destroying the "Dravidoid" IVC? Now the IVC is Europe's ancestral civilisation? Wah?
Oh wait. I got ya. Just like a couple of centuries ago, Samskritam was proclaimed as the Mother Language of Europe and today they say Europeans gave us our language. Likewise, IVC will be their mother civilisation for a day and tomorrow the spin will be that they bequeathed us the IVC.
Christoterrorist lies tend to follow a predictable pattern. Appropriation, appropriation, appropriation. (But gradually, lest we catch the thief during his open, daylight robbery.)
