If you don’t make it with what you’re doing now, what’s your plan B?

Bronze Age Steppes is becoming a complete chaos. And clearly, the wishful Kurganists and their flights or fantasies are not at all making any sense. Let's see how things played out. 1. Around 4000 BC, we had what is called Carpatho-Balkan Metallurgical Province. This one was centred around the Carpathians, did some basic copper work and exported it to the wider steppes. And then, it collapsed. 2. Now, with the start of Uruk expansion, we see Steppes flocking to the borders. Why do I say that? Maykop kurgans are out of sync with the way of life of the locals of the area. Were there two kingdoms in symbiosis living together? 3. Now, these Maykop had zero clue of metallurgy. But. Their kurgans contained lavish riches. And they got almost all of them from the South. Now, did they loot them or did they facilitate trade, no idea. 4. But prestige itch - they combined the concept of lavish riches of South and the burial customs of the steppes and built huge kurgans - Egyptians modelled Ziggurat of Anu as a stacked mastaba, the Djoser Pyramid, Maykop modelled it as a pile of mud. 4. Maykop collapsed and it's replaced by an even cruder version - the Yamnaya. Now, this Yamnaya got 50% of their metal stuff from across the Caucasus, rest half from god knows where - the assumption is across the Urals. But they mined Ural copper. Now, their mounds are not even lavish and even cruder as compared to Maykop with the exception of that eastern corner which had some lavish burials. Now, are they the both culture, and is the second version which did the copper, no clue. 5. Now, for the horror of archaeologists and their structured dating, these crude ones coexisted with another culture - the Srubanya. They have a different level of sophistication and for them, 90% of their goods came across the Caucasus. 6. After Yamnaya disappeared, this Srubanya rediscovered and mined those mines for another 500 years. And they sold their copper only in the west. 7. Now, we need to consider one thing here. Arsenic bronze smelting in steppes doesn't mean building great things. Its just battle axe heads. That's the only technology everyone had. 8. Another steppe culture, Abashevo appeared. This one moved west across Urals and split into two - the other being Sinthastha. Now, they also existed along with the Srubanya which joined hands with Andronovo on the other side - so, Srubanya gave Sinthastha copper and they did the axe heads and may be something else. 9. Their graves contained horses and bridles - the first time found indicating horses are domesticated in steppes, and carts with spoked wheels. And they too imploded. Now, how did this Sinthastha enter India, how did it mess up the genetics, or is there something else we are missing - who knows? Clearly, they are not sophisticated enough even to have proper sedentary lives. 10. This Steppe Zone interacted with the core MAIS to create BMAC or BMAC was formed and it was influenced by both of them. After that, metallurgy was simply found everywhere. As if this isn't enough, neither Yamnaya nor Cordedware had any horses. So, did they do all the conquering part by foot? Now compare this with the Kurganist version.

A happy family… destroyed in just one decision. 💔 A woman left her husband and her 6-year-old daughter behind… and disappeared with her lover. When the husband found out, he rushed straight to the police station, hoping everything could still be fixed. Police tried to convince the woman. Even the husband requested her to come back for the sake of their little daughter. But what happened next shocked everyone. The woman clearly refused to return home. In front of everyone, she said she no longer wanted to live with her husband… and had chosen her lover instead. The most heartbreaking part? A 6-year-old innocent child was left watching her family break apart. 😢 People at the police station stood silent. Some blamed modern relationships… Others felt sorry for the little girl who became the biggest victim of the entire story. One decision… And an entire family was shattered overnight.

The U.S. Dollar has lost 30% of its purchasing power over the last six years

Indian stock investors are slowly moving to US Stocks. Now the thing is that if the US Market continues to perform well--- these set of investors are NOT coming back to Indian equities. It was a different thing: when Indian stock investors got beaten by Gold, Silver, etc. Gold, Silver/commodities, Real Estate are different clubs altogether. But, getting hammered by US Stocks is very different. If people pick firms like Meta, Msft now. And, see it compound 15-16% in dollar terms, it would be very hard to bring them back. Like always: we will over regulate rather than solve the core problem.

Very interestingly, Kotak chose silence all through entire March and April, and found his voice magically after Modi's speech. ✌️

I am not defending my son. But he told me, “Nanna, I have done nothing wrong. We were together like friends and later separated. I will come out of this.” If my son had truly done anything wrong, even I would not forgive him. Law will take its own course. Justice is equal for all.

Karuppasamy is a kshetrapala deity in TN and Kerala. He is a warrior and is offered meat, cigars and alcohol as bhog. In Kerala he is considered as lieutenant of Ayyappa Swamy and has a shrine to the right of pattietam padi (18 steps) leading to the Sannidanam. The beauty of Hinduism is that there is not one form of worship and people must appreciate that.
