Preface This book presents a study of the historic past with investigations directed with a particular object to bring to light the history of races with special reference to their movements and settlements in regions in ancient times, hither to, looked upon as a dark age. Although history of individual civilizations, most of which per chance have developed on the tropic of cancer just as the Sumerian, the Egyptian, the Sindhu Sarasvati (Harappan), is well known, still the interlink between these, in respect of philosophical ideologies, social and religious customs and technical or commercial know-how is seldom reviewed, and it is not exactly known how theoretical ideas and know-how of crafts have been actually exported from one civilization to the other. This study is extremely necessary to trace the ultimate source of human civilization what may be called the cradle of world civilization. This work is a humble attempt to present in somewhat form a solution to this vexed problem. When we look into the details of the 3500 B.C. old Sumerian civilization or a similar age old pyramid builder Egyptian civilization we come across the infallible expert opinion that each of these two great civilization does not have an indigenous origin but that each of these was developed by a highly civilized people whose torch bearers settled in these regions in pre-historic past. These twin questions of migrations of a highly cultured race, which brought with its basic elements such as mystic thinking, developed script and a corpus of laws, into Sumer and Egypt from some unknown land blooming with a high civilization, have since been overlooked by scholars; a question, explicitly outstanding but getting no attention, has been taken up in this work for seeking a possible solution.

As for the movement of races in the pre-historic past is concerned, we are all acquainted with a theoretical premise of the dispersion of an Aryan race which is still a matter of great controversy. This race is said to have spoken a language designated as centum from which all dialects German, Celtic Greek, Latin, Iranian, Sanskrit etc. arose in due course of time on migrations. No part of this theory could be proved even to any extent. Yet this proposed movement could explain settlements in Middle East complex and Greece on one hand and Persia and India on the other around 2000 B.C., but it did not cover the previously talked of settlements at Sumer and Egypt, and the question haunting the imagination continued to loom large on our minds as to the identity of the highly cultured people who, implanted civilization at Sumer and Egypt in circa 3500 B.C. and who could be rightly looked upon as hailing from a land, the cradle of world civilization.

The theory, that Indo Aryan homeland was located in the wide region stretching from Black sea Denyub region to plains of Europe, attracted the attention of experts to such a great extent that they were ever busy searching, more acceptable sites for the homeland in Euro-Asian complex.

Thus in a way the scholars mind got stuck in the confines to the search for the Aryan homeland so much so that the scholars were not prepared to think of any alternative approach. The importance of this work lies in the fact that a new approach to the origin of civilizations based on comparative study of civilizations has been undertaken to come to some conclusion.

The material for such investigation could be based on available archaeological findings, authentic historical research and mythology of races, which is not totally devoid of historical records.

Introduction The question of the cradle of the human civilization is linked to the homeland of the Aryans a race which it is said populated the Indo-Iranian homelands (India and Iran) on one hand and Greco-Roman Complex (entire Europe) on the other. There are as many views on the point of the homeland of Aryans as there are scholars. It were the European scholars who were playing the dominant role in writing the history of India, Middle-East, Egypt, China and Greece. Their scholarship, dedication and scientific approach is commendable yet there exists lot of difference of opinion amongst these scholars on any point of exclusive interest.

The first problem is that of the original homeland of Aryans and the second is that of the language they spoke before they dispersed from their homeland and the third problem is about the antiquity of human civilization. The problem of original language of the Aryans has been camouflaged by introducing several technical terms which are all imaginary and for which there exists no evidence of any kind anywhere. A code for training chariot horse has been deciphered from the tablets found in Mesopotamia. When the question of tracing the language of the code arose, the words like panchavartan (Pancha-Five vartan from root vrt meaning turning) and Aika (one), belonging clearly to Sanskrit vocabulary have been dubbed as proto-Iranian. Although history clearly acknowledges that these show no Iranian features, still the whole matter is thrown into confusion and uncertainty by conceiving a proto language to Iranian and naming it proto Iranian. Not only this, a language proto-Indic, another proto-Indic-Iranian have also been conceived. This is all brain exercise in a plane blank of all facts.
