an excerpt from a mail i sent to a newsgroup:
==================
glad you brought this up. i have been following the stephen oppenheimer hypothesis (see also http://www.bradshawfoundation.com/stephenoppenheimer/index.php) about how there were the following migrations:
1. early humans walked out of africa along the coast to peninsular india around 60-70,000 years ago
2. further along the coast to indonesia and other parts of southeast asia peopling the entire coast
3. huge volcanic eruption that wiped out (via a nuclear winter) a majority of the people in india
4. those who had gone to indonesia came back to india, repopulating it
5. these people then migrated north/northwest and northeast
6. mutations caused them to become white or east asian
some of the original genes from #1 are still found among the populations of the tribals of the western ghats. (the details have been maintained a secret so these people are not then 'mined' for genetic material).
thus, in a very real and concrete way, there is an 'out of india' migration that could explain any genetic similarities between indians and europeans.
i am glad shri rajaram is expanding on this new research in his book, as it appears the hypothesis he is exploring is pretty close to the oppenheimer thesis (or an alternative that comes of oxford or cambridge, whichever one oppenheimer is not at).
this hypothesis is based on detailed mitochondrial studies, and being broad and large-scale, renders irrelevant some of the small-scale genetic research which finds 'dramatic' evidence for invasions.
this is yet another stake through the heart of the AIT. the AIT timeframe is based on the 4004 BCE fable of creation as per the bible. the real 'invasion' from africa is not 6000 years old, but 60,000 years old. thus the AIT and 'aryans' are shown to be mere figments of the fevered imaginations of white racists of the 19th century. of course, this stuff is lapped up eagerly and disseminated by communists/JNU types/congress/the church as it suits their agendas
