its fromi wiki, so it must be true, right?
How can the Harappan Empire/civilisation be sanskritic, when sanskrit was not even their language, and the earliest evidence of sanskrit is a millenia after the abandonment of the Harappan settlements.
The article you have quoted actually discredits teh theories, if you read it till the end.
The second theory is itself cast into doubt with the last words "However, the proto-Dravidian origin theory is far from being confirmed due to an emphasis on linguistic connection while evidence of a broader cultural connection remains to be found."
No matter how hard Bharatiyas try, the shoe just won't fit. Flintoff and vinod, and others have tried, to become the Cinderella upon whose foot the glass shoe of the Harappan civilisation might fit.
You can have a go too.
I'm no historian but more of a history enthusiast.
And i would agree with the summation that current population of of pakistan & even north indian population have nothing to do with the IVC expect they inhabit those places now.
And also if one go by the most solid aryan invasion theory it also give credence to the assumption that its the dravidian ppl who truely built the ancient IVC.
Then later on, its the aryan the ancestors of most pakistani, north indian & Brahmins found all over india,who invaded dravidian ppl of IVC and pushed them in to the interior(south) india.
Now why i say this because there is no ancient historical site which indicates that vast dravidian civilization lived in south india during the IVC time.We also know that dravidian ppl are native indian tribes.Now if they were not living in south india at that point of time where those huge no of dravidian ppl inhabit expect IVC which was big & old enough to give crediance to the theory that its was actually dravidian IVC.
Sankrit & vedic/ traditions are contribution of aryan ppl who came from outside indian subcontinent.
There are millions of Adibasis of india who live jungles found around and south of vindhya mountain range are part of ancient dravidian tribes who still practice animistic pagan way worshiping which harldy bears any resemblace with hindu dharma.
so forgive my audacity to say IVC which pakistan has, actually isnt anyway pakistani ,but surely vedic way of life what they gave up was their for thousands of yrs.
