ARCTIC THEORY OF TILAK : NEW EVIDENCES
Opinions differ regarding the original home of aryans. Tilak advocated the theory that aryans originated in the Arctic. Since Tilak's time, new evidence got accumulated in support of his theory. Neotectonic evidence shows that there has been no major activity within the last 50,000 years which could have adversely affected the once mighty rivers Dṛṣadvatīand Sarasvatī, favourably changed the once insignificant rivers Yamunā and Gangā into mighty rivers of the present time, and at the same time kept the status of the river Indus unchanged. The climatological evidences of recent studies further support Tilak's view. The geographical elements of Arctic explain the palaeogeography of the Ṛg Veda better.
