Aryan impact myth crumbles - Studies show most Indians are descendants of early humans http://www.telegraphindia.com/1060112/asp/frontpage/story_5711634.asp G.S. MUDUR New Delhi, Jan. 11: Two new genetic studies have disputed long-held beliefs that pastoral central Asian people brought agriculture to India and contributed heavily to the genetic make-up of modern Indian populations. The central Asian people who migrated to India included the Aryans who began arriving around 3,500 years

ago. The studies by scientists in Calcutta with colleagues in other countries might force historians to revise current ideas about the impacts of migrations from central Asia beginning about 8,000 years ago on India. A study by scientists at the Central Forensic Science Laboratory in Calcutta has revealed that most present-day Indians are the descendants of early humans who began to arrive in India about 60,000 years ago. It suggests that modern Indians do not owe much genetic makeup to central Asians who arrived much later.

Mr Chatterjee, Thanks for the News clip. Can this research challenge the History of Hinduism which has been considered to be a cultural and religious fusion of both ancient Indian Civilization and the Aryans of Central Asia? I would appreciate any comment on this issue.
