Re: Punjabi/Urdu/Hindi/Sansikrat
Thanks for the lesson in Punjabi. Unfortunately my nick was inspired by the Greek Mythology. Maybe U can open a new discussion about the similarities between Punjabi and Ancient Greek. Who knows U may stumble upon the proof of Aryan Invasion theory on the way.

Its bcoz we have become accustomed to using urdu words for urine and hence think mootar is a bit nasty, but Malyalis seem to use it regularly.

Most of the history during the past 2500 years has been documented, and can be verified through the travels of alberuni, chinese travellers etc and then comparing with the relics of old settlements that have been discovered. What about the Indus valley civilization, how can that be understood now? The oldest text of the subcontinent, was sanskrit, and rig veda which can give more clues dates up to 1500 BC. But I believe it was written much later, whats the history behind rig veda and what does it tell us about the people in the land at that time?
It is one of the oldest extant texts in any Indo-European language. The Rigveda's core is accepted to date to the late Bronze Age, making it one of the few examples with an unbroken tradition. Its composition is usually dated to roughly between 1700–1100 BC.
There are strong linguistic and cultural similarities with the early Iranian Avesta. The Rigveda describes a mobile, semi-nomadic culture, with horse-drawn chariots, oxen-drawn wagons, and metal (bronze) weapons. The geography described is consistent with that of the Greater Punjab. While it is highly likely that the bulk of the Rigvedic hymns were composed in the Punjab, even if based on earlier poetic traditions, there is no mention of either tigers or rice[SUP][/SUP] in theRigVeda (as opposed to the later Vedas), suggesting that Vedic culture only penetrated into the plains of India after its completion. Similarly, there is no mention of iron as the term ayas occurring in the Rig Veda refers to useful metal in general.[SUP][/SUP] The "black metal" (kṛṣṇa ayas) is first mentioned in the post-Rigvedic texts (Atharvaveda etc.). The Iron Age in northern India begins in the 10th century in the Greater punjab. There is a widely accepted timeframe for the beginning codification of the RigVeda by compiling the hymns very late in the Rigvedic or rather in the early post-Rigvedic period, including the arrangement of the individual hymns in ten books, coeval with and the composition of the younger Veda Samhitas. This time coincides with the early Kuru kingdom, shifting the center of Vedic culture east from the Punjab into what is now Uttar Pradesh.
Recognizable characters from RigVeda are Indra, Varuna, Agni etc. A treaty between **Hittites **who lived between Anotolia and Mesopotamia and **Mittanis **who lived in Assyria the deities Mitra, Varuna, Indra and Nasatya(Ashvins) are invoked. These are deities of Rig Veda. The language used in the treaty is extremely similar to RigVedic Sanskrit indicating that they might be different dialects. But the people could certainly understand each other and they seem to have a common culture. So the Rig Vedic influence (?) was certainly spread over a vast Geographical area if u note the distance between Punjab and Anatolia. This treaty was dated to around 1300BC well after the initial comosition of Rig Veda wich began in 1700 BC
