Have not run into datable references from it, but then I have not actively searched for them.

Any specific context? reason?

Fits nicely with Nilesh’s timeline for Mahabharat. https://news.stanford.edu/press-releases/2018/05/30/war-clan-structubiological-event/ About 7000 years ago, genetic diversity of males decreased to such an extent that there was only 1 male for about 17 females. A disastrous war could have caused i...

I asserted this to be due to Mahabharata event (5561 BCE) more than a year ago(on this very thread)! And data (not shown in the article below) proves my point handsomely. My assertion was based on the paper by Monika Karmin et al of 2015. I also discussed this scenario with Vagheesh Narasimhan (Post...

Excellent find. Good stuff. I have to read and re-read few times to internalize the content and summary of these studies. Thank you.

Anshuman Kumar ji, other than me and a few other mice no one has attacked linguistics yet so there has been no sustained attack on linguistics. And as far as my knowledge goes no one else has launched as much of a tirade against linguistics as I have done so please don't imagine things. That we mus...

On Twitter, manastaramgini: Indo-Aryans: If we go by mainstream indological models the RV should have been composed in the Panjab no earlier than ~2000-1900 BCE - stretching things to the limit butm more like ~1700 BCE \pm 100 yrs.

Too late here in Amarika. Came back from ~10 day long trip. Met with Vagheesh and spent 3 hours with him. Will provide brief summary in next few days. I had made a list of predictions (about things) before meeting with Vagheesh. All of the predictions came out correct. Some of them with R-square muc...

^^^ Rudradev ji, These very thoughts (not as articulate as you put it) very much entered my mind a while ago. Frankly, this applies to everything else (similar serious subjects) that is being discussed on Twitter/Facebook. A better strategy is to wait until the paper is officially/peer-reviewed (wha...

Good Stuff, Dr. Shiv.

Thanks, Shiv. I have the awareness that this is an open forum and thus whatever I am asking is very much in the open space. I was (indeed) very much thinking along the lines you stated (however nowhere close to how nicely you articulated it). I want to learn a thing or two from Vagheesh including to...

My only regret in the article is that I have been unable to find a reference that I know I have read- that is Witzel lamenting that Avestan has unfortunately been reconstructed from Sanskrit and wishing that some more original texts had survived.

Nilesh ji, for those quibbling about "Oh,Arundhati had been ahead of Vashishta for X,000 years by 5565 BC, if Vyasa had really lived in 5565 BCE, why would He make such a big deal of A/ V?" Maybe an appropriate response would be: Why do people today keep saying "ghor Kaliyug," a...

Nilesh Oak

Lets keep aside the point of whether Vyasa meant the AV observation as a "bad omen" or not. Achar's argument occurred to me and to several others as well. The bottom-line is this: if Vyasa described the AV phenomenon, then our archaeo-astronomy needs to take it into account. We cannot sel...
