I guess I must now state my beliefs! I believe that the catatrophic collision of the "island of India" happened not millions of years ago, but merely thousands!

Early maps, even until the 17th century CE, do not seem to denote the collison of the Isle of India into the Asian continent!

Thus, most every thing in India is younger than most every where else!

But, this is merely my theory, and it has the weight of nothing!

The gap between the latest Indus seal ( ca 2000-1500 BC ) and the earliest known Easter Island Rongo-rongo tablet ( anyhow way after 1000 AD ) is enormous ; at least 2500 years.

The Himalyas didn't happen in a few thousand years.  The Mountain range was formed by the collision you speak of.  You can also get a rough dating on when the collision took place by examining the Marine fossils that are on the summit.  When the uplift happened the summit of the Range was a sea floor.

Ya there is a huge gap between the periods,but that doesnt speak against the similarities...

Ranjithvnambiar asked if I could be more specific!

Technically no, since our modern dating techniques tend to side with the "rulers" of chronology! I, however, consider them as frauds! If they actually have a science it is voided because they are confined to dating certain things based upon past datings that were considered as in-valid and then they adjusted their measuring ratios, ect., and finally came into contact with the "consensual" chronology, with but a few exceptions!

What I really believe is that it appears there does not exist any certain written documents from anywhere in India that can be dated with certainty to before the 1st century CE!, and maybe even the 14th century CE!

You see, I place more importance upon real facts, that is those which are found in documents, that can be repeated upon a printing press, than anything else!

Just like this site pretends to examine, that is, is there anything that can connect the child-like script of Easter Island to that of India, is much like asking if child-like drawings made by Indians and Norwegians are similar! Of course they are, and as well they should be!

But, please ingore me and my theories, since it seems most all of you, and all of the missing and dead prior posters, tend to become more "one-sided" than "open minded!"

But that is one of the most common things found in any relay of information found upon any site like this one!

By the way, I have been particularly impressed by the lack of hatred usually found upon similar sites!

Regards to all,

  In that case I have to say that you are technically right but you are wrong too.

Earliest writings or signs were found in  Indus valley ,Mesopotamia , Egypt , China , Greece etc.

To be more specific the signs on several seals and tablets found from Dholavira archaeological site of Rann of Kutch India was dated back to 3500BC.Ofcourse you don’t believe in Cabon dating, but many others do.

I need to say that I dont find rongorongo or any other scripts as childlike.

You were more specific about your not believing the dates in certain cases and that’s enough for me to understand you too are not devoid of prejudice.

Most of the Ancient Indic literature like Vedas,Upanishads,Brahmanas, puranas,itihasas and others were composed in pre-historic period and was preserved through oral tradition.

As you correctly said the scholars gave it a date based on relative chronology and gave it much later dates like 1200BC, 800BC, 600BC etc.But they never bothered about its content during the dating.

Most of these texts are explaining about many astronomical events like equinoxes,eclipses and others  which took place much before the dates attributed to them.

Please find a link attached to the works of an Astro Physist from Memphis university who based on the astronomical data given in the Indic text Mahabharata found out the exact date of its occurrence with the help of Planetarium Software

 http://www.omilosmeleton.gr/pdf/en/indology/narahari01.pdf

http://sites.google.com/site/sarasvati96/reclaimingthechronologyofbharatam:narahariachar(july2006)

Even the date of Birth of Buddha as told by the stars were 1300 years earlier than the dates given by scholars.

I personally believe that stars or relative stellar positions will tell truth which will be far more reliable than the dating based on the relative chronology of rulers as told by you.

Regards
