I read with interest articles from Sameer and Rohan Oberoi. Having a side interest in the history of this area I have to agree with Oberoi in his refutation of Sameer. All the points raised by Oberoi merit attention and are generally the consensus of modern scholarship. I would also like to comment that many facts in Sameer`s article were simply not correct.

Well you convinced me. Do recall reading parts of Mallory a couple of years back. I thought this was not an issue. The thrust of recent research had been the origin of Indo-Europeans, causes of the their migration and deciphering of the Indus Valley script. There are ofcourse theories of natural disasters/social upheavels in Central Asia. There was an archealogical expedition marked for this summer around Black sea-Wonder what they uncovered. In the Sinkiang province they have uncovered well-preserved mummies of people who can only be classified as Europeans dating back more than a thousand years.

Questions:

Any comments on the origin?

Why has the Rig Veda been relagated to such a lowly position within the Hindu religion?

What are the implications of differences in the Rig Veda and the latter Vedas?
