I am not laughing. I am seriously concerned. If the journal has been hijacked by the BJP, all the articles published in it under the BJP administration will have to be declared as unreliable. -- Kautilya3 ( talk) 23:48, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
India is a place where pseudoscience is preached in schools as science. Therefore Such publications in hitherto reliable journals are no surprise. ChandlerMinh ( talk) 20:41, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
@ WikiLinuz - you reverted my earlier edit which stated in the lead section that this is a "theory".
Throughout the article, in numerous sections, there is this mention of it being a theory.
Based on that, I edited the lead section and added the above.
Look forward to hearing back from you... StolenFocus007 ( talk) 12:55, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
According to geneticist David Reich, Sintashta and Andronovo, the two cultures often associated with the Indo-Aryans and Indo-Aryan languages, did not directly contribute any DNA to India[source]:
"Often in the story told with the steppe hypothesis, the Yamnaya give rise to later groups called the Sintashta and Andronovo that then contributed to India. But genetic data from those populations so far call into question that model, as they do not work statistically as sources of ancestry in India." — David Reich
[Source] Reich, David (March 2018). "Ancient DNA Suggests Steppe Migrations Spread Indo-European Languages"
Pretty interesting, since the theory focus a lot on Sintashta/Andronovo migrations which apparently did not happen. In the source Reich mentions that Sintashta/Andronovo-related ancestry reached India later than hypothesized, through a later culture that carried it (thus indirect contribution) 46.176.160.196 ( talk) 11:28, 3 August 2022 (UTC)

An editor has identified a potential problem with the redirect Aryan Invasion Theory (history and controversies) and has thus listed it for discussion. This discussion will occur at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 December 3#Aryan Invasion Theory (history and controversies) until a consensus is reached, and readers of this page are welcome to contribute to the discussion.

@ HorCrux48: FYI: the IVC had already started to decline, due to climate change, when Indo-Aryan people started to migrate into northern India, also due to climate change. The 'Aryan Invasion Theory', bt which you seem to be informed, is outdated and incorrect. Joshua Jonathan - Let's talk! 19:29, 31 March 2023 (UTC)

"south India" in this sentence doesn't make any sense. "South Asia" does. It appears to be a typo, hence my simple correction.
Regardless of the controversy, The Gandhara Grave, Cemetery H, Copper Hoard and Painted Grey Ware cultures within South Asia is generally conjectured to be associated with Indo-Aryan movements all over the literature. For instance:
"Aryans in the Archaeological Record: The Evidence Inside the Subcontinent" by J.F. Heinen: This chapter from the book "The Quest for the Origins of Vedic Culture" delves into the archaeological evidence for Indo-Aryan presence in South Asia, with a specific focus on the Gandhara Grave Culture.
UNDERSTANDING PATTERNS OF CULTURAL DEVELOPMENT IN THE POST-HARAPPAN PERIOD ( ND MILLENNIUM TO 600 BCE): A STUDY ON ARCHAEOLOGICAL DATABASE" by Upinder Singh: This article examines the cultural developments in the post-Harappan period, including the Cemetery H Culture and its possible connection to Indo-Aryan migrations.
"The Copper Hoard Culture and the Aryans" by B.B. Lal: This article presents the case for associating the Copper Hoard Culture with Indo-Aryan migrations, based on shared features with Central Asian cultures.
"The Painted Grey Ware Culture" by R.S. Sharma: This book provides a detailed study of the Painted Grey Ware Culture, including its chronology, distribution, and relationship with other cultures in South Asia. It also addresses the ongoing debate about its association with Indo-Aryan migrations.
Regardless of the on-going debate on cautious approach on associating these cultures with Indo-Aryan movements, the current sentence with "south India" doesn't make any sense at all, and it appears to be a typo.
