Refutation of the Aryan Race Conjecture Arithmetic Evidence and Conquest-of-Greeks Theory
From the backpageWere Aryans a mere racist fantasy invented by the colonizer on the church trick of using fantasies to rule? Politically, this fantasy divided India by region (Aryan vs Dravidian) and caste, and confounded caste with race to make caste oppressive.
The similarity of Sanskrit and Greek/Latin was surprising only because of the earlier Crusading glorification of Greeks, used to appropriate world knowledge in Arabic texts, by falsely attributing a Greek origin to it.
The linguistic similarity is no proof of a common beehive, for there was no common system of arithmetic. In Greek and Latin one cannot even say the huge numbers found in the Yajurveda or in early Buddhist texts! Bad Greek math is corroborated by the non-textual evidence of bad science: the primitive Roman/Christian calendar in current use.
The linguistic similarities are easily explained. Persian is naturally like Sanskrit since India and Persia are neighbours. Persia conquered Greeks explaining the similarities to Greek.
