Saying they were central asians because they entered India from central Asia is like saying British people were fish because they entered India from the sea
They were travelling through centuries from Russian steppes to Ural, than central Asia, and than crossed mountains and spread in Northern India, Pakistan and Afganistan. I think even in Bangladesh a lot of R1a.
@@معرفةوترفيه-ت2ظ The Pontic-Caspian Steppe is almost entirely within Europe. This area - as well as much of the western and central Eurasian Steppe - was white before the Turkic migrations that came much later. The Scythians and Sarmatians, for example, are clearly described as white and red-headed by ancient historians, and surviving artwork depicts them with European features.
@@معرفةوترفيه-ت2ظ It doesn't take long to look this up. I'm not going to waste my time arguing with you. The Sarmatians and Scythians were definitely white. The white race is not a cultural concept. Actual historians and geneticists have written about this.
@@معرفةوترفيه-ت2ظ Dude. Europe is truly geographical term, but not cultural. Strange if don`t understand that. This is first. Secondly, we are talking about not ethnics, races, genetics, but about Y male DNA - this is very different things. You are like arab must know at least 7 your male ancestors, and all of them will have common with you Y DNA. But ethnic or race can be different, because it is depend on your mother, grandmother and etc race and genetics. So again you can find black European just because Europe is territory. Scythians were not necessarily white skinned, because it depends of race of their mothers and wifes. But some tribes were "whites". Finally, I do not agree with you, what we simply do not know. We know a lot, from history, archeology, linguistics, and now from Y DNA tests. This is knowledge, it is moving forward.
Corrections: 1.I said that Yamnaya were a chariot riding people. They were not. They had wagons but no chariots. chariots were invented around 2000 BC by the Sintashta culture which is descended from Corded Ware who are related to Yamnaya. 2. I seemed to indicate there was no EEF DNA in India, but there is. the 2016 lazaridis paper just missed it. 3. Since this video came out we have discovered the origin of the specific subclade of R1a that is found in Asia and it is among the Fatyanovo culture in Western Russia, which is itself a regional variant of the Corded Ware culture. Therefore central Asian Aryans of Sintashta and Andronovo culture were to some extent descended from the Fatyanovo culture.
What if wasn't an invasion but like Rome's various forms of integration and migration of germanic tribes. The Ostrogoths and sciri became the new rulers of Rome by the eastern roman empire. Or how the Slavs, Finns, and balts asked a Rus prince to be their king. Invasion? What if its mercenaries and immigrants ceasing power like the mamluks or Hyksos? I don't invasion is the only way to interpret the change in genetics.
@survive the jive the discovered saloni in UP state of india had vedic culture,shows parallel civilization with the late indus civilization. Does that discard the invasion concept.

@@kumaryogesh5829 no it doesn’t, all it had was chariots. That’s not evidence of an entire culture. Mind you, those chariots aren’t made in the Aryan andronovo style and we see no evidences of horses.
Interested analysis. Yes eurasianstepp peoples but the culture of indian is still predominantly Dravidian based and the north indian indo european language has sounds and gramatic rules that only exist in Dravidian languages. Eurasianstepp peoples settled in the subcontinent into India around 3000 BCE who were nomadic pastoralist and mixed with with the harrapan peoples who themselves were a mix of south Iranian agriculturalists and out of african migrants. We have one componentry in common which is out shared ancestry with the eurasianstepp people who I wouldn't really classify as european, light brown maybe. But they mixed with early europeans too.
@@starswitch well I would consider them European since not only are they from the European continent, have europanoid caucasoid skulls as opposed to Iranian ones of the Aryans, but their language and pagan religion was like that of their own. I mean they built pre-Christian europe with mixing obviously
Respect to Colin Renfrew for conceding that his own theory was wrong. That is the mark of a principled man who does not let his ego interfere with the facts.
@@strikeforce5331 His theory required, among other things, changing the timeline drastically and having no explanation for language issues between pre-Anatolian and Proto-Indo-European. Basically they likely split earlier and are cousin languages. One of the rules of archaeology is that your theory can't contravene empirical facts, which is what many people try to do.
As an Indian it was very difficult to find an unbiased analysis of the topic as everyone could be affected by their political inclinations, so I find this video very helpful and has cleared doubts about the validity of the theory in my mind.
i would request you to refer the work of Dr vasant shinde and Dr Niraj Rai the are working on the excavation site of rakhigari the hai disproved the Aryan invasion even Aryan migration theory by archeological survey and genetics study.
@@sliderstruth Just that few Indians have some percentage of steppe ancestry does not mean that that entire civilization is borrowed from Europe. But the Hindu nationalist's argument is not correct either.
@@loney403 Europe didn't exist as a civilational concept when the indo-aryans migrated from the steppe. Nothing was borrowed from "Europe". Indo-Aryans migrated into both northern India and Europe.
What most Indians who challenge this theory fail to understand is the fact that these proto-Indo-Europeans didn’t come from (Western) Europe. They migrated west and invaded Europe exactly as they migrated southeast, towards Iran and India. In Europe they mixed in various proportions with pre-existing West European hunters-gatherers and Early European farmers, giving birth to the ethnic mosaic that is Europe today. Exactly the same way as today’s India sees a very diverse genetic pool, where Aryan component is just one of many. So this is NOT a justification for past British rule over India at all. The common roots in Yamnaya culture between Europe and Iran or India are more linguistic or paleo-cultural than genetic.
We been migrating and mixing since evolution began , the Ramayana story in the vedas tells how’s Indians migrated to even the americas , the Europeans read the vedas and just switched the story to the white people doing all this instead 🤣 u still believe the number system is western/Arabic when the Arabs took it from India and Sanskrit 🙈
You are right, but still indoeuropeans were genetically closer to western european hunter gatherers at that time than they were to Dravidians. Even though their cultures would later mix up with Dravidians and become closer to India than to Europe.
Indo-Europeans may started the Persian Empire after they invaded and mixed with Middle-Eastern. But Indo-Europeans themself were came from north of Caspian Sea. When the first Iranian Emperor Cyrus the great were at war with his Indo-European ancestor the Jews who live in Persia called these Indo-European people with the term Gog-Magog.
ukkr So what is the hypothesis you’re proposing then? You make interesting points, about why India is so linguistically diverse. But are you proposing a hypothesis, or simply asking questions? Are you saying that the Aryans came from Arabia/Africa? That seems doubtful to me.
@@solank7620 Now on retrospection, I believe he/she means that If indeed Indians were one same ethnic group there wouldnt be two different language sets: Proto-dravidian and Indo-Eurorpean. That should be clue enough that there was once an invasion or migration. Dravidians were the initial tribal group from Africa who settled throughout India and then they were later displaced by the Aryans or Steppe in the north from Iran and hence their languages are Indo-Eurorpean(Sanskrit, Urdu etc). Also South Indians look like Africans, Indonesians while North Indians look like Afghanis, Saudis and Omanis so that should basically be enough to prove all this.
Ashew Titan I don’t know about Dravidians being related to Africans. But the rest seems right to me. There were definitely many invasions/migrations in India, as there were all around the world. Seems like Indian nationalists want this to be untrue for political reasons. Maybe they don’t like that India has a history of being conquered? I’m not entirely sure what the agenda is. They might also be trying to guilt the British over supposed propaganda to get reparations. The political corruption of academia is pretty sickening to me, and at the core of everything the right is dealing with. If academics did their damn job, we wouldn’t be having all these problems.
@@solank7620 you have mistaken hindu nationalists for Indian nationalists. Many Indian nationalists ( including many freedom fighters and as the video conveys even India's first prime minister believed in the aryan invasion theory. ) Hindu nationalists are fascists and trust me they believe way more pseudo archaeological facts than just this. They believe in aryan indigenous theory. Hindu nationalists believe that every ill of the Indian society came from western socities or due to Islamic invasions. It is sickening. I suppose you understand that as fascists they need to make everything Indian.
Are you people serious?? The Aryan Invasion Theory is actually British Imperial propaganda, it's actually in reverse. They devised the theory in order to justify their unilateral looting of resources from Hindu soil. The Jat are the ancient ruling and warrior race of India, native to india and indigenous to it. They are the actual Aryan race that the British try to usurp as being European via bought out propaganda. Even the genetic basis is not congruent to the theory: haplogroup F is the parent to groups GHIJK and originates in North India, and spreads from India to Europe, not from Europe to India. Aryan also originates from Vedic literature, which this propaganda artist fails to quote, and defines the native Hindus as Aryan, and definitions of Hind and Arya Vrata are identical pointing solely to North Inida, not the Steppe. It was the ancient Jat kings of North India that pushed west all the way to north and south Europe, they were called different names based on the region: Get or Getae in the black sea region, Got Geat and Jute in Nordic lands, Goth by Romans, Zaths by Arabs, and Yuezhi by the Chinese. This dude is lying he is just furthering imperial British propaganda, they constructed the Aryan invasion theory backwards because the British thought they could buy their stay in Hind Arya forever, India by the way is a foreign British term, Arya and Hind are the native names for India. Once their money ran out from fighting WW 2 in 1945, they couldn't use their bought out puppet kings to keep Hindu Nationalists at bay and quickly packed away back to Britain in 1947. Aryan Invasion from the west is a total lie, they'll use various theories to support it, none of which are supported by history, genetic flow, or Vedic literature.
Interesting fact: Old Rigvedic God (still worshipped in India), Indra, the God of rain and lightning bears a resemblance to Zeus, Thor, Perun etc 1. All of them are personified as god of thunder. 2.

If you think the Sanskrit meaning of the term "arya" is in any way relevant as a counter argument then you simply aren't informed or intelligent enough to participate in this discussion. If the former, then you can start by learning the etymology of Arya and the meaning of its cognates. You cannot project a sanskrit meaning back on to an older language! That's like saying a skirt is a shirt because of its etymological root! LOL en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aryan#Etymology
Paul Sholtz Wikipedia isn’t really a “source” per se, it’s more of a collection of sources, which you would know if you bothered to read the references at the bottom, but obviously this would require a higher attention span which you probably don’t have. As for your claim as IE being a made up conspiracy theory in an attempt to appropriate other cultures “by academics to satisfy whatever agenda they’re getting paid to push.” LMAO What agenda? And who is paying them? Please tell me more I’d love to know more about this hahaha idiot
Paul Sholtz and your claim about those cognates is false btw, the Irish cognate with arya is actually “Aire” which can mean noble or freeman. Same as the Sanskrit equivalent. Nothing to do with silver. All goes back to the PIE root “heryos.”
@@TheM41a What about the persian word "Ariya" which means the same thing. You dont want that because it supports the most modern theory that PIE with R1A gene originated in modern day iran. The oldest R1a variant is still present in small proportions in Iranian population. Even though the Arabs and Persians thoroughly mixed so the current ethnic stock is much more Arabicized. But this still does hurt your "All good ancient things were done by whites" state of mind so you will conveniently ignore the scientists when it hurts your worldview.
@Jigov - Very interesting my friend but one thing i do mention when we have discussions about the so called Aryans is that you should read Mahabharata & Ramayana(Indian Epics) and fully understand it and it takes a while as there are many volumes for both. These Indian epics are said to be anything from 10 to 100 thousand yrs old and i know there is a huge gap as there are many many versions where it gets very complicated but the general view is that not only these epics but other ancient indian texts are the oldest on this planet. Also there are recent discoveries in India where chariots and swords were found which dates to 6-8 thousand yrs and clearly debunks the Aryan invasion theory.
It’s because if this theory is recognized then people will start going “why do we let these foreigners push us around?” And question the caste system, and it seems they don’t want that

Think that was Sir Mortimer Wheeler. He excavated Harappan sites and insisted that some skeletons found in streets and wells were evidence of Aryan attacks into Harappan centers, but though the larger Aryan hypothesis is conclusively proven, that particular evidence has been refuted owing to the lack of any significant fortifications or weaponry among the Harappan cites, suggesting that whatever nation existed then never went to war. The skeletons likely belong to victims of climate catastrophe or some internal disturbances during the gradual desertion of Harappan cities

@@Archius_09 I'm a Hindu, and secure enough in my identity to not be threatened by real history, or to use a fake account with a Christian name to spread propaganda for that matter. And I don't have to be a Hindu to know about Kurukshetra. I know Christians and Muslims better versed in Indian history and Hindu mythology than the likes of you will ever be. Second, There are publishers affiliated with the RSS like Suruchi Publishers who are based in the RSS head offices, so maybe learn more about your own organisation. Whatever you said about Kurukshetra has no basis in real history or archeology. BB Lal's excavations at the site produced no evidence of a battle on the scale described. Third, as far as the date of the battle is concerned, if you're referring to the date Aryabhat assigned, it's even earlier than 3000BC and, again, it has been repudiated repeatedly by modern archeology and historical research. The battle of the ten kings in the Rig Ved, which is the earliest source for Vedic life and history, is dated to no more than 1500BC. The Mahabharata is a mythological epic which very indirectly has its origins in real history, in India and perhaps partly outside it, which was written down from bardic traditions of uncertain antiquity possibly a millennium after the Indo Aryans first came. Excavations at Hastinapur and Indraprastha, at the Purana Qila complex near where I live in Delhi, have produced no evidence of the bustling urban areas described in the Mahabharat, only some small settlements. The Mahabharat is of deep spiritual and cultural value to me not just as a Hindu but as an Indian, and as an educated person I see no need to invent some dubious historicity to enhance its value. Cite some serious sources instead of people like Shinde, who bullied David Reich into obfuscating the terminology for early Indian ethnic groups to suit the Sangh's agenda, to support your outrageous assertions and then we'll talk. If you can't do that, stick to spreading your pseudo history in whatsapp groups. Finally, you're no one to say I've been offensive to my religion. Hinduism's core is the pursuit of truth, and you're an adharmi for consciously or unconsciously propagating falsehoods.

He did not mention Slavic languages in particular, but Slavic is indeed in Indo-European language, as are the vast majority of European languages. Similar connections to Sanskrit exist in Germanic, Latinate, Greek, Celtic etc. languages, because they are all related. The Slavic words you mention do seem to be particularly key words though.

True, though linguistic and DNA as well as archeological evidence points to a homeland around the Caucasus mountains and Euro-Asian steppes. I remember some archeologist that studied caves in the mountains/hills that sprawl all over Euro-Asia stated that the proto Indo Europeans were very large cave dwellers during the ice age and we're well over six foot tall, from the height of the paintings on the ceilings of caves. The caves they were showing on film are in France I believe. More amusingly my mother tongue Pashto is very similar to French. We also have similar features to Celts as well as a propensity for auburn/red hair which supposedly indicates we are quite inbred. The genetic theory states that blonde hair/blue eyes was a gene-mutation that took place from inbreeding light skinned but dark haired Proto-Indo-Europeans and Red hair from inbreeding blondes.

Contrary to what a lot of Indian nationalists will claim, the "Rakhigarhi Skeleton" in no way debunks AIT/AMT. I suggest anyone interested in the topic to actually google the study published by Prof. Vasant Shinde and Dr. Niraj Rai. No matter how much they may attempt to twist the data into fitting their politically biased position, it doesn't support the Indigenous Aryans hypothesis at all. Illegitimate historical revisionism is running rampant in India these days and is even openly supported by the government. This really needs to be stamped out because in my opinion it's a national embarkment for the country. I, as a European nationalist, fully support Indian nationalism, however what I will not participate in is pseudoscience.

The funny thing is that some Indian freedom fighters did believe in some form of AIT/AMT. Lokmanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak certainly believed in it and he was a highly respected and popular Hindu nationalist. In fact, he still is highly respected. (He is also one of my favourites).

Their influence was later greatly diminished following the Chola invasion of Srivajaya which, although the Cholas also didn't constitute an occupying force and went mainly for plunder and to break the kingdom's maritime monopoly in the Malacca straits, did end up having a greater imposition on Srivajayan society than the Palas - with Chola nobles accepted into the Srivajayan court, Chola subjects conducting diplomacy with China on behalf of Srivajaya, and also in the hereditary records with some Malay princely dynasties retaining Cholan or Chulan as their dynastic surnames. I would still have thought the OP's R1a1a2 paternal haplogroup would more likely be the result of an unknown Dutch ancestor during tge colonial period, seeing as intermarriages and even rape was not uncommon between occupying European colonial forces around the world. Furthermore, Indonesia has a recorded history of a mixed Indonesian-European group (the Indos) who are a remnant of the Dutch colonial period. There was also a great stigma attached to the Indos in the post-colonial/independence era so even if the OP's paternal family had not simply forgotten about the European side, may have conveniently brushed it under the carpet in the post-colonial period out of fear of prejudice.

Thanks for doing this work Tom. There was some controversy among the Traditionalist authors about the Aryan migration into India. Glad this research clears it up.
I'm from an Iyer Brahmin Family and there's literally no Brahmins that generally accept this theory in India... They're all pretty traditional Hindus that look at this as a very bogus theory. But the evidence has built up, and it supports it, so I changed my mind over time, though my parents have not. I disassociate with this varna or caste stuff though, pernicious ideas thats caused havoc.
@Avra Talukdar The biggest reason people call it an invasion is because almost no female specific dna is preserved but tons of male specific dna is preserved from our hypothetical PIE people. Over such territory and periods of time invasions and migrations become nearly the same but it appears the PIE culture and men became dominant in the regions they lived in.

Indo Aryan invasion is not unique for the descendants of Indo Europeans. They invaded stone hedge builders in Britian. Invasions were also done in modern day Greece, Italy, Germany, Scandanavia, Spain, Turkey, Iran etc. In fact, it's only in India that significant genome and cultural artifacts like Shiva survived from the pre-indo-europeans. To summarize, let's not consider Indo European invasion of India as something unique. If anything, it's one of the few places to preserve prior customs.
Regarding Shiva as the only pre-indo-european deity. As far as I know in the old Norse pantheon there were two gods - Freya and Frey (The Lady and The Lord) - who are said to be the old gods of the farming people of that part of Europe before the Yamnaya came.
@@ronniereloaded The figurine from IVC is just a figurine, no proof whatsoever that it is Shiva, that's a lie concocted by Hindutva academic. Shiva only appeared in Purana, post-Indo-European, post-Vedic.
"Invasion" is a very loaded word. It presupposes a high level of societal organization, political sophistication and logistics. "Migration" should be the prefered term, unless one can prove that such a high level of organization existed beforehand. "Raiding" might be "sophisticated" in planning, but does not require a sophisticated culture to execute it.
Also, invasion would mean they all came as one monolith all at once? But the reality is they probably kept seeping in one by one in small groups over a large span of many years.
That would seem to make sense to me. Migration is a broader term that can include many forms of human movement, including, but not limited to, invasion (which sounds like a unified coordinated forcible event). Unless specific information about how the Indo-Europeans arrived in India is forthcoming, migration seems like a better term.

I do think a bit longer summing up at the end would add to clarity (for slower viewers - like me!). I went to Delhi for work reasons many years ago. I knew nothing about Asia and I was astounded at the range of humanity I was seeing on the streets. From pale-skinned men taller than me (I'm 6ft) bearing blue or grey or green eyes (and sometimes ginger hair), to dark men and women with brown eyes some of whom were barely as tall as my shoulder. It created a riot of thoughts in my head as to where all these people originated. This documentary went a long way to answering my questions - thirty years later!
Many pale skinned people are short as well in India, If you go to southern India, you can find tall dark man... most Indians are shorter due to malnutrition which is now improved a lot
As an Indian, I see nothing wrong with the Aryan Invasion theory. If an Englishman can be proud of his heritage despite the English being the product of Celts being invaded by the Romans, Jutes, Geats, Saxons, Angles, Danes, Swedes, Norsemen, and Normans, then we can be proud as the heirs of the noble charioteer, as well as the architects of the Indus Valley Civilization. A merger of two great peoples. The Out of India theorists have a framing issue, or they do it to appease the south Indians, who associate more with their Dravidian, non Indo-European heritage.
Well said! As a South Indian,(I assume your from the north) I am surprised to know that many South Indians are against the Aryan invasion theory, I think it's mostly the Tamil nationalists who are more opposed to the Aryan invasion theory as they are invested in creating a seperate Dravidian Identity even though most of India's ethnicities have been mixed to much to be able to differentiate between southern Dravidian and Northern 'Aryans' however not all Tamils agree upon this (including myself). Also that point about an Englishman being proud of being a product of Celtic, Roman, Saxon, Geats, Normans etc. Is an amazing point for Indian unity, for which I'll be quoting from you. Thanks lol.

I've been watching a lot of videos on the Celtic cultures of Gaul and Britain of the time of the Romans. They had what could be described as a "caste" of priests called Druids. Some accounts say that the Celts would paint themselves blue, and that they had an affinity for chariots as well as a belief in reincarnation. The more I thought about this the more I noticed a similarity between what was being said about the Celts by Greco/Roman sources and the Hindu's of India, with their blue Gods, and belief in reincarnation. I was wondering if this was a sign of a common mythology that may have had earlier incarnations dating to common Indo European ancestors. I was looking to find more information on the Celts as they had an oral tradition and did not write much of their beliefs down. Could you do some videos on the Celts?

It's interesting to think that the Indo-Europeans have been wandering backwards and forwards for centuries between Europe, Anatolia, and the sub-continent from ancient times right up to the early Middle Ages. All these groups like the ones you outlined way back in the mists of time through to the Rom, Dom, and Lom who began to migrate west from northern India after about 600 AD. My wife shares most of my genetics, loosely speaking, because she is part Romanichal, but her ancestry lies in ancient India while mine is almost entirely Scots and Irish Gael with a touch of southern England/Wales (and 0.8% "Middle Eastern"). It's fascinating to see how all these peoples, not just the Indo-Europeans but everyone, may have got to where they are and how they are all related to each other. It's a shame that this has all been turned into a political football by various groups intent on dividing humanity into small warring groups that they can control for their own gain. Thanks for that analysis it was a great piece of work.

That's true, but Lithuanians too got mixed with other ethnicities over time. As said, "Aryans" were white-skinned but not exclusively blonde or blue eyed. They mostly were brunettes with brown eyes. However, Lithuanians mostly have coloured eyes and hair nowadays, a shift from the classical definition of "Aryan". May be this is the result of some mutation that occured later on...which happened with Tocharians as well before they went extinct
@@PaulAllen6304 Hair colour is completely irrelevant. Aryans look like modern day Northern Europeans whether blond, brunette or redhead in the Bronze Age.
"Narrative changes every passing day" ...still highly arguable. The ignoring of evidence from Indian perspective can be seen with bare eyes in understanding of these theories. Why not study it more from Indian front as you did from you own western front throughout history. Unarguably India has more complex cultural evidences than just presuming things.
Tocharians, a misnomer that stuck with their name. They descended from the same Andronovo-Sintashta stock as modern Indo-Europeans, but they went straight towards Far-East, crossing Siberia, into Mongolia and taking a sharp turn through Gobi Desert and finally settled around Tarim Basin. They had very fair skin, and blonde hair. A lot of them adopted Budhhism. There's even a Tocharian Budhhist Bodhisattava(prophet). But they could stand the Hunnic/Turkic invasions. Today their DNA is mostly found in Uzbeks, Tajiks and most commonly, in Uyghurs

Corrections:
1.I said that Yamnaya were a chariot riding people. They were not. They had wagons but no chariots. chariots were invented around 2000 BC by the Sintashta culture which is descended from Corded Ware who are related to Yamnaya.
2. I seemed to indicate there was no EEF DNA in India, but there is. the 2016 lazaridis paper just missed it.
3. Since this video came out we have discovered the origin of the specific subclade of R1a that is found in Asia and it is among the Fatyanovo culture in Western Russia, which is itself a regional variant of the Corded Ware culture. Therefore central Asian Aryans of Sintashta and Andronovo culture were to some extent descended from the Fatyanovo culture.
What if wasn't an invasion but like Rome's various forms of integration and migration of germanic tribes. The Ostrogoths and sciri became the new rulers of Rome by the eastern roman empire. Or how the Slavs, Finns, and balts asked a Rus prince to be their king. Invasion? What if its mercenaries and immigrants ceasing power like the mamluks or Hyksos?

They migrated west and invaded Europe exactly as they migrated southeast, towards Iran and India.
In Europe they mixed in various proportions with pre-existing West European hunters-gatherers and Early European farmers, giving birth to the ethnic mosaic that is Europe today. Exactly the same way as today’s India sees a very diverse genetic pool, where Aryan component is just one of many.
So this is NOT a justification for past British rule over India at all.
The common roots in Yamnaya culture between Europe and Iran or India are more linguistic or paleo-cultural than genetic.
We been migrating and mixing since evolution began , the Ramayana story in the vedas tells how’s Indians migrated to even the americas , the Europeans read the vedas and just switched the story to the white people doing all this instead 🤣 u still believe the number system is western/Arabic when the Arabs took it from India and Sanskrit 🙈
You are right, but still indoeuropeans were genetically closer to western european hunter gatherers at that time than they were to Dravidians. Even though their cultures would later mix up with Dravidians and become closer to India than to Europe.
Indo-Europeans may started the Persian Empire after they invaded and mixed with Middle-Eastern. But Indo-Europeans themself were came from north of Caspian Sea.
When the first Iranian Emperor Cyrus the great were at war with his Indo-European ancestor the Jews who live in Persia called these Indo-European people with the term Gog-Magog.

You make interesting points, about why India is so linguistically diverse.
But are you proposing a hypothesis, or simply asking questions?
Are you saying that the Aryans came from Arabia/Africa? That seems doubtful to me.
@@solank7620 Now on retrospection, I believe he/she means that If indeed Indians were one same ethnic group there wouldnt be two different language sets: Proto-dravidian and Indo-Eurorpean. That should be clue enough that there was once an invasion or migration. Dravidians were the initial tribal group from Africa who settled throughout India and then they were later displaced by the Aryans or Steppe in the north from Iran and hence their languages are Indo-Eurorpean(Sanskrit, Urdu etc). Also South Indians look like Africans, Indonesians while North Indians look like Afghanis, Saudis and Omanis so that should basically be enough to prove all this.
Ashew Titan
I don’t know about Dravidians being related to Africans. But the rest seems right to me.
There were definitely many invasions/migrations in India, as there were all around the world.
Seems like Indian nationalists want this to be untrue for political reasons. Maybe they don’t like that India has a history of being conquered? I’m not entirely sure what the agenda is. They might also be trying to guilt the British over supposed propaganda to get reparations.

@@solank7620 you have mistaken hindu nationalists for Indian nationalists. Many Indian nationalists ( including many freedom fighters and as the video conveys even India's first prime minister believed in the aryan invasion theory. ) Hindu nationalists are fascists and trust me they believe way more pseudo archaeological facts than just this. They believe in aryan indigenous theory. Hindu nationalists believe that every ill of the Indian society came from western socities or due to Islamic invasions. It is sickening. I suppose you understand that as fascists they need to make everything Indian.
Are you people serious?? The Aryan Invasion Theory is actually British Imperial propaganda, it's actually in reverse. They devised the theory in order to justify their unilateral looting of resources from Hindu soil. The Jat are the ancient ruling and warrior race of India, native to india and indigenous to it. They are the actual Aryan race that the British try to usurp as being European via bought out propaganda. Even the genetic basis is not congruent to the theory: haplogroup F is the parent to groups GHIJK and originates in North India, and spreads from India to Europe, not from Europe to India. Aryan also originates from Vedic literature, which this propaganda artist fails to quote, and defines the native Hindus as Aryan, and definitions of Hind and Arya Vrata are identical pointing solely to North Inida, not the Steppe. It was the ancient Jat kings of North India that pushed west all the way to north and south Europe, they were called different names based on the region: Get or Getae in the black sea region, Got Geat and Jute in Nordic lands, Goth by Romans, Zaths by Arabs, and Yuezhi by the Chinese. This dude is lying he is just furthering imperial British propaganda, they constructed the Aryan invasion theory backwards because the British thought they could buy their stay in Hind Arya forever, India by the way is a foreign British term, Arya and Hind are the native names for India. Once their money ran out from fighting WW 2 in 1945, they couldn't use their bought out puppet kings to keep Hindu Nationalists at bay and quickly packed away back to Britain in 1947. Aryan Invasion from the west is a total lie, they'll use various theories to support it, none of which are supported by history, genetic flow, or Vedic literature.

If you think the Sanskrit meaning of the term "arya" is in any way relevant as a counter argument then you simply aren't informed or intelligent enough to participate in this discussion. If the former, then you can start by learning the etymology of Arya and the meaning of its cognates. You cannot project a sanskrit meaning back on to an older language! That's like saying a skirt is a shirt because of its etymological root! LOL en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aryan#Etymology
Paul Sholtz Wikipedia isn’t really a “source” per se, it’s more of a collection of sources, which you would know if you bothered to read the references at the bottom, but obviously this would require a higher attention span which you probably don’t have.
As for your claim as IE being a made up conspiracy theory in an attempt to appropriate other cultures “by academics to satisfy whatever agenda they’re getting paid to push.” LMAO
What agenda? And who is paying them? Please tell me more I’d love to know more about this hahaha idiot
Paul Sholtz and your claim about those cognates is false btw, the Irish cognate with arya is actually “Aire” which can mean noble or freeman. Same as the Sanskrit equivalent. Nothing to do with silver.
All goes back to the PIE root “heryos.”
Paul Sholtz >prove it
I don’t need to, it’s been proven since the 18th century.
@@TheM41a What about the persian word "Ariya" which means the same thing. You dont want that because it supports the most modern theory that PIE with R1A gene originated in modern day iran. The oldest R1a variant is still present in small proportions in Iranian population. Even though the Arabs and Persians thoroughly mixed so the current ethnic stock is much more Arabicized. But this still does hurt your "All good ancient things were done by whites" state of mind so you will conveniently ignore the scientists when it hurts your worldview.
@Jigov - Very interesting my friend but one thing i do mention when we have discussions about the so called Aryans is that you should read Mahabharata & Ramayana(Indian Epics) and fully understand it and it takes a while as there are many volumes for both. These Indian epics are said to be anything from 10 to 100 thousand yrs old and i know there is a huge gap as there are many many versions where it gets very complicated but the general view is that not only these epics but other ancient indian texts are the oldest on this planet. Also there are recent discoveries in India where chariots and swords were found which dates to 6-8 thousand yrs and clearly debunks the Aryan invasion theory.
As someone of North Indian descent as well... thank you, the sheer amount of people I’ve met that deny the hypothesis is appalling
@yitzhak rafaeli shekkelsteingoldmanberg Actually most of India is Caucasoid.
It’s because if this theory is recognized then people will start going “why do we let these foreigners push us around?” And question the caste system, and it seems they don’t want that

And I don't have to be a Hindu to know about Kurukshetra. I know Christians and Muslims better versed in Indian history and Hindu mythology than the likes of you will ever be. Second, There are publishers affiliated with the RSS like Suruchi Publishers who are based in the RSS head offices, so maybe learn more about your own organisation. Whatever you said about Kurukshetra has no basis in real history or archeology. BB Lal's excavations at the site produced no evidence of a battle on the scale described. Third, as far as the date of the battle is concerned, if you're referring to the date Aryabhat assigned, it's even earlier than 3000BC and, again, it has been repudiated repeatedly by modern archeology and historical research. The battle of the ten kings in the Rig Ved, which is the earliest source for Vedic life and history, is dated to no more than 1500BC. The Mahabharata is a mythological epic which very indirectly has its origins in real history, in India and perhaps partly outside it, which was written down from bardic traditions of uncertain antiquity possibly a millennium after the Indo Aryans first came. Excavations at Hastinapur and Indraprastha, at the Purana Qila complex near where I live in Delhi, have produced no evidence of the bustling urban areas described in the Mahabharat, only some small settlements. The Mahabharat is of deep spiritual and cultural value to me not just as a Hindu but as an Indian, and as an educated person I see no need to invent some dubious historicity to enhance its value. Cite some serious sources instead of people like Shinde, who bullied David Reich into obfuscating the terminology for early Indian ethnic groups to suit the Sangh's agenda, to support your outrageous assertions and then we'll talk. If you can't do that, stick to spreading your pseudo history in whatsapp groups. Finally, you're no one to say I've been offensive to my religion.

1) this proves the vedic religion is outsider religion, just like islam and christianity. so the criteria of gaining power by nationalist hindutva agenda, flops. and nobody wants to share the power.

No matter how much they may attempt to twist the data into fitting their politically biased position, it doesn't support the Indigenous Aryans hypothesis at all.
Illegitimate historical revisionism is running rampant in India these days and is even openly supported by the government. This really needs to be stamped out because in my opinion it's a national embarkment for the country. I, as a European nationalist, fully support Indian nationalism, however what I will not participate in is pseudoscience.

@@Agnostic7773 there is evidence of horses being used in ancient mesopotamia around the 2000 BCE. You don't know what you are talking about.
The funny thing is that some Indian freedom fighters did believe in some form of AIT/AMT. Lokmanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak certainly believed in it and he was a highly respected and popular Hindu nationalist. In fact, he still is highly respected. (He is also one of my favourites).
I am an Indian Nationalist (more specifically, a Hindu Nationalist) too and I feel that the AIT/AMT theory is most likely true. As a Nationalist, I support European nationalism too. However, it may come as a shock to you but I still support the current government compared to the Congress. This government has some bad aspects to it but it is still a much, much better one compared to Congress (who are very much the Labour equivalent of India).

The Indic influence on south-east Asia was predominantly from South India through the Pallava dynasty and the Chola empire, both of which existed in the common era although Indian culture began contact with and in turn, influencing south-east Asia from around the 3rd century BCE. Is it not more likely that your paternal haplogroup may have been from an unknown ancestor during the Dutch colonial period?
@@Hotasianchick yes, youre right, the Bengali, Mahayana buddhist Pala kingdom did also have cordial relations and influenced Srivajayan society which ruled Sumatra at the time. That was short lived however and the Pala were never an occupying force. Their influence was later greatly diminished following the Chola invasion of Srivajaya which, although the Cholas also didn't constitute an occupying force and went mainly for plunder and to break the kingdom's maritime monopoly in the Malacca straits, did end up having a greater imposition on Srivajayan society than the Palas - with Chola nobles accepted into the Srivajayan court, Chola subjects conducting diplomacy with China on behalf of Srivajaya, and also in the hereditary records with some Malay princely dynasties retaining Cholan or Chulan as their dynastic surnames.
I would still have thought the OP's R1a1a2 paternal haplogroup would more likely be the result of an unknown Dutch ancestor during tge colonial period, seeing as intermarriages and even rape was not uncommon between occupying European colonial forces around the world.
Furthermore, Indonesia has a recorded history of a mixed Indonesian-European group (the Indos) who are a remnant of the Dutch colonial period. There was also a great stigma attached to the Indos in the post-colonial/independence era so even if the OP's paternal family had not simply forgotten about the European side, may have conveniently brushed it under the carpet in the post-colonial period out of fear of prejudice.

Thanks for doing this work Tom. There was some controversy among the Traditionalist authors about the Aryan migration into India. Glad this research clears it up.

I'm from an Iyer Brahmin Family and there's literally no Brahmins that generally accept this theory in India... They're all pretty traditional Hindus that look at this as a very bogus theory.

@Avra Talukdar The biggest reason people call it an invasion is because almost no female specific dna is preserved but tons of male specific dna is preserved from our hypothetical PIE people. Over such territory and periods of time invasions and migrations become nearly the same but it appears the PIE culture and men became dominant in the regions they lived in.

Indo Aryan invasion is not unique for the descendants of Indo Europeans. They invaded stone hedge builders in Britian.

To summarize, let's not consider Indo European invasion of India as something unique. If anything, it's one of the few places to preserve prior customs.

"Invasion" is a very loaded word. It presupposes a high level of societal organization, political sophistication and logistics. "Migration" should be the prefered term, unless one can prove that such a high level of organization existed beforehand. "Raiding" might be "sophisticated" in planning, but does not require a sophisticated culture to execute it.
Also, invasion would mean they all came as one monolith all at once? But the reality is they probably kept seeping in one by one in small groups over a large span of many years.
That would seem to make sense to me. Migration is a broader term that can include many forms of human movement, including, but not limited to, invasion (which sounds like a unified coordinated forcible event). Unless specific information about how the Indo-Europeans arrived in India is forthcoming, migration seems like a better term.

As an Indian, I see nothing wrong with the Aryan Invasion theory. If an Englishman can be proud of his heritage despite the English being the product of Celts being invaded by the Romans, Jutes, Geats, Saxons, Angles, Danes, Swedes, Norsemen, and Normans, then we can be proud as the heirs of the noble charioteer, as well as the architects of the Indus Valley Civilization. A merger of two great peoples. The Out of India theorists have a framing issue, or they do it to appease the south Indians, who associate more with their Dravidian, non Indo-European heritage.
Well said! As a South Indian,(I assume your from the north) I am surprised to know that many South Indians are against the Aryan invasion theory, I think it's mostly the Tamil nationalists who are more opposed to the Aryan invasion theory as they are invested in creating a seperate Dravidian Identity even though most of India's ethnicities have been mixed to much to be able to differentiate between southern Dravidian and Northern 'Aryans' however not all Tamils agree upon this (including myself).

I am an Indian(hindu) from a brahmin family. My grandparents told me that my great great grand mother had blue eyes. This video is a plausible explanation.
But , I have questions.
1)Why did the Andronovo people invade India through the inner asian mountain corridor, and not through Bactria(todays Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and north western Afghanistan?
2) Why did the Andronovo not invade Iran at the same time as they invaded India?
3) In other Indo European cultures and religions, what are the respective equivalents of Shiva, Brahma and Vishnu?
1. Easier
2. They were different groups of andronovo covering a huge area of central asia
3. Indian philosophy had developed since rigveda
@@Survivethejive Thanks for the reply. I agree with your answers. It is also fascinating that the group in central Asia with the most yamnaya ancestry are the Tajiks at around 52% ancestry. And in India, the group who have the most yamnaya ancestry are not the brahmins but a group of Kshatriyas known as the Jats who have upto 44% ancestry. So in the modern world, which ethnic group has the highest yamnaya ancestry?
I've been watching a lot of videos on the Celtic cultures of Gaul and Britain of the time of the Romans. They had what could be described as a "caste" of priests called Druids. Some accounts say that the Celts would paint themselves blue, and that they had an affinity for chariots as well as a belief in reincarnation. The more I thought about this the more I noticed a similarity between what was being said about the Celts by Greco/Roman sources and the Hindu's of India, with their blue Gods, and belief in reincarnation. I was wondering if this was a sign of a common mythology that may have had earlier incarnations dating to common Indo European ancestors. I was looking to find more information on the Celts as they had an oral tradition and did not write much of their beliefs down. Could you do some videos on the Celts?
Yes there are similarities

Sir collen Renfrew deserves full respect and admiration for he is a true scholar and an honest seeker for the truth he did not let his ego get in the way
It's interesting to think that the Indo-Europeans have been wandering backwards and forwards for centuries between Europe, Anatolia, and the sub-continent from ancient times right up to the early Middle Ages. All these groups like the ones you outlined way back in the mists of time through to the Rom, Dom, and Lom who began to migrate west from northern India after about 600 AD. My wife shares most of my genetics, loosely speaking, because she is part Romanichal, but her ancestry lies in ancient India while mine is almost entirely Scots and Irish Gael with a touch of southern England/Wales (and 0.8% "Middle Eastern").
It's fascinating to see how all these peoples, not just the Indo-Europeans but everyone, may have got to where they are and how they are all related to each other. It's a shame that this has all been turned into a political football by various groups intent on dividing humanity into small warring groups that they can control for their own gain.
Thanks for that analysis it was a great piece of work.
Sir, those people were from Banjara (nomadic) community of Rajasthan who migrated towards the west, mixed with arabs and reached romania.
@@tipsyhogai5336 , Yes they are Indo-European, they are called "Lambada", they could be from "Lombardo" , Italy.
That 'Middle Eastern' is not modern Middle East. It's overlap.
Romani people were and are still called gypsies and their rituals are labelled as witchcraft.
Orginal Indians Dravidians
All Indians are Dravidians and the "Aryans" never existed. That's made up nonsense from the colonial days. 😊👍
@@ohlawd3699 Then explain why Indians have neolithic European DNA in them? Where did they get that from?
@Maison-des-Aryens
Maybe because those "dark-skinned, lower IQ Indians" were the kind of Indians that built the Indus Valley Civilization whilst most people in Europe in that same time period were making mud angels. Seems like a good enough reason to me. 😁🤷♂️

Neolithic European DNA? They probably got that from your Mum's beef curtains on her trip to India. 🤭
With the rise of Hindu nationalism in the first half of the 20th century to modern day India has come Hindutva chauvinism.
The denial by nationalist Hindus in India and abroad of the Aryan migration or invasion or both (now no longer a theory) has become a pet obsession.
Talk about a people in denial! Never let the facts get in the way of your dogma! OMG! They don't want to hear it!
Great presentation! It sums it all up!
@18 year old Real Estate Agent No
The fact that Aryans invaded and entered into India, does not mean that europeans did.
Aryans are Iranians, iranian peoples such as persians, scythians or sarmatians. Strictly Iranian not European.
Indo-european, okay yes by default.
European, NO
Ancestral to iranians but from europe
Make a video about modern day iraqi ethnicities & their relations with Sumerians & Babylonians...
they are the marsharabs =magyars = hungarian
@Arminius? Ancient Sculptures of babyloneans look facially like many modern irakis.
@Arminius ah I forgot they look like grecs and Germans and English and Ukrainians.
Whatever dude whatever.
@Arminius yes ofc that's a reality and science based fact. Thank you.
Sumerians were ancient indians. Sumerian great civlization was NOT sEmetic nor jewish nor arabic types of peoples. Sumras Sumeros Sumers of India and even Pakistan are the Sumerians and Sumerians and Indus Civlizations shared lots. Sumerians were cross breed of same peoples who are todays upper and lower india. Indic races lived in Ancient Anatolia Mesopotamia Mittani or ind India the Mithani surname the indian surname Sumera and Indic lived in yemen with semties and it east belf of Saudi arabia but not in Mecca Medina but also near Jordan border and also in iran central asia india subcontinent and also original peoples of caucasus and some mixed with Mongols and lived in Altai and Mongolia china regions also.people wonder were did ancietn great oldest civlization Sumerians go well they moved with their brethren to what is todays west indian states and some few still left in Sindh
Excellent video as always, Tom. Would you consider doing a video on the Rig Veda in the future?

My grandma once told me that if you ever want to hear what the closest living language is to the Aryans, or meet them yourself, travel to Lithuania. I guess she was right.
That's true, but Lithuanians too got mixed with other ethnicities over time. As said, "Aryans" were white-skinned but not exclusively blonde or blue eyed. They mostly were brunettes with brown eyes. However, Lithuanians mostly have coloured eyes and hair nowadays, a shift from the classical definition of "Aryan". May be this is the result of some mutation that occured later on...which happened with Tocharians as well before they went extinct
@@PaulAllen6304 Hair colour is completely irrelevant. Aryans look like modern day Northern Europeans whether blond, brunette or redhead in the Bronze Age.
Tell my message to Lithuanians don't suicide brodas dis is da biggest sin in ancient Indo European religions bigga dan murder.
"Narrative changes every passing day" ...still highly arguable.
The ignoring of evidence from Indian perspective can be seen with bare eyes in understanding of these theories. Why not study it more from Indian front as you did from you own western front throughout history. Unarguably India has more complex cultural evidences than just presuming things.
Preach

Hey Tom! I'd love to see your take on the white mummies of xingjian in Western China.
Your wish is his command.
They were Tocharians, indigenous Indo European soeakers of that region...
Tocharians, a misnomer that stuck with their name. They descended from the same Andronovo-Sintashta stock as modern Indo-Europeans, but they went straight towards Far-East, crossing Siberia, into Mongolia and taking a sharp turn through Gobi Desert and finally settled around Tarim Basin.
They had very fair skin, and blonde hair. A lot of them adopted Budhhism. There's even a Tocharian Budhhist Bodhisattava(prophet).
But they could stand the Hunnic/Turkic invasions. Today their DNA is mostly found in Uzbeks, Tajiks and most commonly, in Uyghurs
They aren't white trash😂
Wondered why the word 'Aryan' is not mentioned in Aryan European migration or in European ancient history but only appearing in India?! Surely if Aryans migrated to Western Europe or in anywhere in Europe, they would have recorded their arrival or their origin in 'Russian Steppe' which no one knows where they came from.
Arya and Aryan are Indo Iranic words. Aryans migrated from the Urals to South Asia. They never went to western Europe
@@Survivethejive your opinion is not a mainstream view, which says Aryans migrated in waves to east to Iran & India and west to Europe.
@@amitavraja3385 it is the mainstream view. You have confused the Aryans with the PIE
@@Survivethejive I'm not talking the proto-Indo Euro but western migration of Aryans where there is no mention of Aryans/Arya?! Why India and Iran mentions Aryan?
@@amitavraja3385 He is saying that the Aryans are the eastern branch of the Proto-Indo-Europeans who crossed the Hindu Kush into India. Corded Ware/Yamnaya are those who went west. The "Aryans" never went west
