THE
REDISCOVERY OF THE SARASVATI RIVER |
|
If rivers in Afghanistan have Vedic
names it is more likely an overflow of populations out of India, not the
other way around, as no Afghani river has the size, location, or reaches the sea as did the Vedic
Sarasvati. We have already noted Harappan sites in Afghanistan that
would explain the naming of rivers there from larger Indian counterparts.
Therefore I am also proposing, along with many other scholars
today both in India and the West, that the Harappan or Indus Valley
civilization, should be renamed the "Sarasvati civilization," or at least
"Indus-Sarasvati civilization." This would put an end to the
misunderstanding of it, as the Sarasvati is the main river of the
Vedas. The Indus and Sarasvati regions to the sea, which were the
center of Harappan culture, are also the same geographical region of
Vedic culture, which proves their identity.
