many social historians. In exercising their superiority over native proto-Asian
populations, the Aryans would have appointed themselves to higher rank castes.

Interestingly, an analysis of the genetic variations in the markers associated with
the maternally inherited mtDNA and paternally inherited Y-chromosome show
strikingly different trends. Maternally inherited DNA was overall found to be more
similar to Asians than to Europeans, though the similarity to Europeans increases as
we go up the caste ladder. Paternally inherited DNA, on the other hand, was overall
more similar to Europeans than to Asians but, unlike in the case of maternal
inheritance, with no significant variation in affinity across the castes. This is
intriguing, but there is a plausible explanation. Migrating Eurasian populations are
likely to have been mostly males who integrated into the upper castes and took
native women. Inter-caste marriage practices, while generally taboo, are
occasionally allowed, in which women can marry into an upper caste and move up
in the social hierarchy. However, such upward mobility is not permissible for men.
The caste labels of men are thus permanent, while women, by means of their
limited mobility, cause a gene flow across caste barriers. This is the reason,
according to the researchers, for the differing affinities of gender-specific genes
among castes to continental populations. 361
One of the major Indo-Aryan gods was known as Indra, Lord of the Mountains,
“he who overthrows cities”. Upon obtaining the promise of supremacy if he
succeeded in killing Danu and Her son Vrtra, he does accomplish the act, thus
achieving kingship among the A-Dityas. This reminds us of the early Sumerian
text reported above:
The was founded by Enmebaragesi, a contemporary of Gilgamesh. The name
breaks down as follows: enetik - eme - ebakin - aragikor - ageriko - ezi which can
be transliterated to, “rom that time on - female - harvest - lustful - notorious - to
domesticate” or “From that time on the lustful, notorious harvest female was
domesticated”.
This “name” tells us in no uncertain terms that the time of the Goddess was on the
decline, because male domination had arrived with the Sumerians.
In a hymn to Indra in the Rg Veda which describes the event, Danu and Her son
are first described as serpent demons; later, as they lie dead, they are symbolized
as cow and calf. After the murders, “the cosmic waters flowed and were
pregnant”. They in turn gave birth to the sun. This concept of the sun god
emerging from the primeval waters appears in other Indo-Sumerian-Incan myths
and also occurs in connection with two of the prehistoric invasions. We suggest
that all of this connects such events to times of cataclysm wherein the sun is
“darkened” or concealed by dust and clouds.
