The Celestial Key to the Vedas: Discovering the Origins of the World's Oldest Civilization by B. G. Sidharth, For more than a century scholars have debated the antiquity of the Vedas archipelago indo malaysian prehistory and their related literature, the Brahmanas archipelago indo malaysian prehistory and Puranas. Relying upon a host of assumptions from linguistic theory, anthropology, archipelago indo malaysian prehistory and archaeology, they have agreed upon 1500 B.C. as the earliest possible date for the Rig Veda, itself the oldest extant example of Indo-European literature. But in this groundbreaking book, astronomer B. G. Sidharth proves conclusively that the earliest portions of the Rig Veda can be dated as far back as 10,000 B.C. By deciphering the astronomical events archipelago indo malaysian prehistory and alignments contained in mythical archipelago indo malaysian prehistory and symbolic form in these ancient texts, Sidharth calls into question many if not all of the assumptions governing Indo-European prehistory. He explores such subjects as the astronomical significance of many Hindu deities archipelago indo malaysian prehistory and myths, the system of lunar asterisms used to mark time, the identity of the Asvins, archipelago indo malaysian prehistory and the sophisticated calendar of the ancients that harmonized solar archipelago indo malaysian prehistory and lunar cycles. Sidharth provides incontrovertible evidence that such "advanced" astronomical concepts as precession, heliocentrism, archipelago indo malaysian prehistory and the eclipse cycle are encoded in these ancient texts, passages of which make perfect sense only if these astronomical keys are known. Based on internal evidence in the Mahabharata archipelago indo malaysian prehistory and Ramayana, he also becomes the first to establish likely dates -- archipelago indo malaysian prehistory and even places -- for the events described in these famous epics. The Celestial Key to the Vedas is sure to astonish anyone concerned with astronomy, India, or the roots of civilization.

Malay archipelago - The Malay Archipelago refers to the vast group of islands located between mainland Southeast Asia (Indochina) and Australia. These islands constitute the territory of Indonesia, the Philippines, Brunei, the Malaysian states of Sarawak and Sabah along with the Federal Territory of Labuan, East Timor, and Papua New Guinea.
Indo-Hittite - In Indo-European linguistics, the term Indo-Hittite (also Indo-Anatolian) refers to the hypothesis that the Anatolian languages may have split off the Proto-Indo-European language considerably earlier than the separation of the remaining Indo-European languages. The term is somewhat imprecise, as the prefix Indo- does not refer to the Indo-Aryan branch in particular, but is iconic for Indo-European, and the -Hittite part refers to the Anatolian language family as a whole.
Giant river prawn - The giant river prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii), also known as the giant freshwater prawn or the Malaysian prawn, is a species of freshwater shrimp (not prawn) native to the Indo-Pacific and northern Australia. This species (as well as other Macrobrachium) is commercialy important for its value as a food source.
Sea Gypsies - The Salone Sea Gypsies are a Malaysian ethnic group, also known as the Moken, that lives a traditional lifestyle on the Southern part of the Myeik Archipelago, off the coast of Burma. Other groups of Moken live nearby off the coast of Thailand.
