looks like you grew an inch since the last time you commented, huh, bub? Still haven't learned to format when you copy and paste, though. I guess they don't teach that in Scythian school. Or maybe Scythian lines of text are just way longer than regular lines of text.

Oh, and you're just way wrong on your notions of racial origins, too. But whatever, you're also a stupid troll.

sm intern...how is it that this thread has not been closed? some of these comments are the definition of hateful and racist. if you must let free speech prevail, do away with the posting policy altogether

[A N N A: Please write in and let us know if you see that an old thread like this has been vandalized...sometimes it's hard to nail every awful comment, without such an assist. I've deleted the troll's comments.]

This is also why Saka Kshatriyas, don't look like Indians, and are tall, strong, with that Greek and Central Asian appearance, and red in complection.

Now I understand where Laurent Garnier got his inspiration for his video and song. It all makes sense now.

I think it is funny! Reality check Punjabis are the foundation of Silicon Valley; Vindo Khosla, Vinod Dham, Sabeer Bhatia, Narinder Kapany & Kanwal Rekhi. Many of the Punjabis are the founders of companies. It is true that Southern Indians are many in the valley but that the Punjabis on the other hand have a leading role in starting companies per capita to their population.

Now back to the Scythian thing. The genetic DNA tests show that the Jatts & Khatris have a western European mitochondrial DNA and higher than Brahmins. The Lohri celebration is akin to the Nowrooz celebration.

Many of the cultural aspects are similiar too.

I think we should let Scythian7′s comments stand. They’re f**king hilarious.

I maybe wrong, but It seems like that among immigrants to west from India. The darker south indians are much more educated, then the precious fair skin northern indians. Also the female abortion problem and the runaway groom problem is much bigger in Northern India, then in South India. Also I'm a fair skin North Indian.

North India (Jatts, Jats, Rajputs) feedd (farming/agriculture) and protect (army) the country of India - so Karthik Rao Subramanian can concentrate on studies/education 100%. Without Jatts/Jats/Rajputs, Karthik Rao Subramianian may be Kader Ali Pathan a starving South Indian.

Hi Folks,

Since everyone is taking a dig as this "racist"I will add my two cents. It is a fact of Indian history that there were incursions of invaders from Central Asia around the birth of Christ and up till 650 A.D. These were Sakas, Greco-Bactrians, Kushans, and White Huns.

To claim that some of the inhabitants of the Northwest India and Pakistan are at any rate partially descended from these ancient invaders is not a ludicrous theory.

But to go around claiming you are Scythian and have some social assumptions or ritual purity ideas from it are entirely ludicrous.

Still the overreaction to "Scythian's" comment is also something that warrants study!

I’m sorry I’m so late to this thread, but reading these comments have really made me heartsick. I think what this guy wrote is disgusting, horrific, racist, etc. That said, the rebuttals to his arguments have been incredibly racist as well. I think it’s fully possible to critique someone’s bizarre notions of self without devolving into a “well your people are scum” or “your ethnic history is filth!” conversation. It’s one thing to understand your (diverse) ethnic history, and another to try to turn this into a discussion of racial superiority. This goes for all parties involved (i.e. both those supporting and negating this guy’s comments).

I just think any discussion trying to aim at racial “purity” is ridiculous, and I also think these disgusting conversations that are trying to degrade his comment by degrading any and everyone remotely connected to a comparable (ethnic) history are foul. At the end of the day, we’re all way more similar than we are dissimilar. Can’t we just see these comments for what they are — racist drivel. Please, let’s not pander to the same low standard.

"Tall"'s Guestbook of Justice.

The most memorable I think of the entries is when Scyth uses the threat "Go eat some beef or pork." Gave me the shivers.
