.@AgentSaffron & @blog_supplement Did u see this? Scientist finds evidence supporting "Steppes/Kurgan hypothesis"http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2015-02/lsoa-nii021815.php …
@AgentSaffron Traditional AIT chronology said invasion happened around 2000-1500 BC. Does that still look right?

@i_contemplate_ genetic data leads us to postulate that it was before.. maybe by 500-1000 years before 2000 BC -
@AgentSaffron Cool, and hence comes the complication with Indus Valley. Traditional narrative of Aryan destruction nullified, but qn remains -
@i_contemplate_ nothing complicated, genetic data shows us mixing of 2 distinct ancestral populations happened -
@AgentSaffron But Indus Valley popn. not confirmed to be part of ASI component? -
@i_contemplate_ IVC most likely had ASI inhabitants with an increasing ANI component as invasion & mixing took place -
@AgentSaffron The riddle of the script remains though.
