Kaushal,
The history of the subcontinent has to be revised, completely. There may be an asian migration theory after all, but the other way around; migration outwards. Either that, or a much larger civilisation spanning most of asia receded over time to just the subcontinent. Too many scholars are now saying this, and we have to take a less parochial view and look outside the subcontinent for the bigger picture; that there is unmistakable evidence of linguistic connections from the Mediterranean to Madagascar, to Kazakhstan right till AustroPolynesia. The evidence cannot be dismissed, and currents views of Indian history dont fit with it. It disturbs and overturns it radically.
You may want to take this up as part of your history studies. These theories also absolutely trashes the traditional AIT.
Regards.

We have, some years ago, made the remarkable discovery â which we now prove in full detail â that <b>Etruscan, the ancestral tongue of the ancient Romans, is indeed a member of the Dravidian family of languages.</b> The importance of this discovery cannot be overstated, as it radically alters all that is known of human prehistory. Among other things, it shows that the mobility of early man was far larger than allowed by the conventional academic doctrines of historiography and archaeology.
Secondly, the present discovery demonstrates the great importance that coy India had in civilizing the other nations, not only in the Far East, but also in the Mediterranean region, the so-called Old World. Dravida, even today one of Indiaâs main tongues, is also closely related to the Austronesian languages, spoken all over the South Seas, from Madagascar in the West to Easter Island in the East. So, in a very literal way, we can say that <b>Dravida â the name given the family â is indeed a global tongue that well deserves the name of Proto-World, the tongue formerly spoken in the primordial center where humanity first evolved, before its great diaspora.</b>
