> Summary of the article of "the Antiquity of Vedic Astrology" :

 

According to the Indians (from India), their astrology dates from more than

5,000 years and the Vedas, which are the most ancient writings, date from

much before still...

 

Then... are these myths or real facts ?

 

 

The antiquity attributed to the Vedas by the official version (maximum 1,200

BC) is not in agreement with that of the Indian chronology, which gives much

more ancient dates (up to 3,900 BC and more).

 

What the archaeological excavations in India revealed support the

astronomical datings of Vedic texts.

 

Harappean India was the greatest urban civilization in the world during the

3rd millennium BC (3,300-1,900 BC).

 

Recently, the ³Harappa² script finally revealed its secrets.. and the most

ancient scripts are 5,500 years oldŠ

 

And recent discoveries of Indian submarine archaeology have brought to light

what may be the oldest Œcity¹ in the world, a 9,500 year-old vestige was

found thereŠ

 

 

On the other hand, from the Western point of view, the dating of Rig-Veda

with 1,200 BC does not rest on any scientific and/or archaeological bases.

And moreover, the "Aryan invasion theory" (which is at the origin of this

dating) clashes with the geological, archaeological, genetic and

anthropologic evidence discovered during the last 2 decades.

 

 

Finally... Vedic astrology, the 12 signs and the 7 planets (+ nodes) seem

well to be able to be dated at least from the 4th millenium before JC in

India... well before Mesopotamia or Greece !
