Please be civil and assume good faith here. An article about ancient India is within the scope of the India Wikiproject. Please do not revert the template. - Ganeshk (talk) 07:13, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fascinating article; lots of information that I didn't know about. Wish we went slightly easy on the Sanskrit terms though; was a tad protracted following the description in parts!

Aryan Invasion/Migration theory

This article is written, assuming that Aryan Invasion/Migration theory is true. AIT/AMT is a controversial theory and its validity is subject to debate. AIT was used as a propaganda by the British to justify their colonization of India. There are many counter arguments to this theory. I hope this article is revised to present an even-sided picture of the topic, rather than just passing off the unproven AIT/AMT as fact. Swami Vivekananda, one of the most revered Hindu Gurus and an expert in Indology, disagrees with this theory. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kkjkkj (talkcontribs) 21:23, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sourcing

[edit]

We are not qualified to interpret ancient primary documents, many of which refer to regions and peoples in inconsistent ways and which mix fact with fiction. I do understand that this article is about those literary sources but we really should be using modern secondary sources that discuss them. - Sitush (talk) 17:24, 6 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
