So, do we have any archeological evidence for Vedic age for the date which historians give from 1500-600 BCE?

[AbhiramN_]

Did you know Painted Grey Ware, and Ochre colored pottery (plus copper hoards) is older than 2000 BCE.

See the paper called: Painted Grey Ware Culture: Changing Prespectives by archeologist Vinay Kumar Gupta.

This proves only that the Ganges Valley was full of somewhat advanced people during Mature Harappan times.

Hey! Very nice content and presentation. Just 1 suggestion that when you mention any name of a person or place kindly write it, so it would be easier to understand. You have done it at many places.. few places it wasn't there in few videos.

[kukumuku]

can you tell me which channel to subscribe for medieval india history ?

[parjanyashukla]

Ochre is called गेरू in Hindi. This kind of paint is still used to paint flower pots.

[iiivveeiiiceeiu]

The Indus and the Vedic culture are over 2000years apart in time and distinctly different

[Ajamidha]

is it reasonable enough to differentiate between these cultures mainly on the basis of pottery?

[nullprophet]

I don't understand how pot colors are considered a differentiation factor?

[vishwayatri]

What is your opinion on conflation of Indo aryan language speaker with an ethnic group? Whenever one says aryan people one assumes a person from central asia speaking indo aryan language. But the two aint necessarily same. Language can be passed without people migration while people can migrate and pick up local language. DNA studies can only attest moment of people from steppe to india(with a lot of uncertainty of when that happened exactly!) but language propagation can be independent of this right?


Thanks for the video! Please keep up the great work.

The new civilisations must be native and the changes must be due to the loss of technology. I have never understood the term 'Aryan'. In Ved, it is never used as a racial term but most 'scholars' use it as such. And if there was actually an invasion why is there no mention of any war. Where are the mass grave sites similar to what we find with the Yamnaya Invasion of Europe?

[सज्जनपुरुष]

but what about chariots, didnt we found any evidence in the post harappan - pre vedic period?

[iiivveeiiiceeiu]

The Indus Valley Civilization ended in 1900bc and after preempting an imminent invasion by the andronovo related culture, relocated in the east and south of india., mixed with the local HG to become the zASI
The nomadic Steppe pastoralist (cattle herders) entered the indo gangetic plains in 1500bc and subdued the native HG, exploiting and indiscriminately nixing for over 2000years thus creating a new genetic population with pervasive Steppe ancestry, now known as ANI.
The indiscriminate. Co habitation continued until 100 AD when the practise was discontinued with the imposition of Endogamy and the Caste system, evidently by the parochial Aryan Vedic culture in 100AD
The Vedic culture was restricted and exclusively practised by the Aryans who created the Vedas and venerated the mythical ever flowing river Saraswati. .
The war chariots and associated legends are probably from this iron age period, 1200bc to 500bc.

If IVC and vedic people were the same, why hadn't any form of advanced architecture like IVC seen in vedic era?

[sagarkumardey]

Actually the thing is that history is more like a story.

[amandeep]

There are some verses in Vedas which preys for the piece of Brahmins, Kshatriya, Vaishya, Shudras and Aryas. What is your opinion regarding it? Does it mean that Varna system existed before Aryan migration?

[southpaw]
