Q. Central Asia is the homeland of the Aryans – is propounded by which of the following?

[A] Sir William Jones

[B] Max Muller

[C] Colin McKenzie

[D] Dr. B R Ambedkar

Answer: B
Notes:

Central Asia is the homeland of the Aryans – was propounded by Max Mueller. 

  • With the comparative study of the Avesta (Iranian text) and the Vedas, one finds striking linguistic relationship between them of not just words but of concepts too.  
  • The interchangeability between ‘h’ and ‘s’ and incredible consistency in this change as hepta hindu (sapta sindhu), Ahura (asura), haoma (soma), daha (dasa) further substantiate the claim.
