Question

The Aryans came from central Asia to India around:-
A. 2500 BC
B. 6500BC
C. 3500BC
D. 8000BC

Answer 1

Hint: Aryan, a name that was originally given to people who were said to speak an archaic Indo-European language and who were believed to have settled in ancient Iran and the northern Indian subcontinent in prehistoric times.

Complete answer: Generally, it is known that they were not India's actual inhabitants. There have been several arguments put forward in favour of and against the claim. Some scholars claim Central Asia was the original home of the Aryans. Some assume their original home was in southern Russia (near the Caspian Sea) or southeastern Europe (in Austria and Hungary).
The German scholar, Max-Muller, thought that somewhere near the Caspian Sea was the original home of the Aryans. They moved to European countries from there. It is said that two classes of Aryans came to Persia and India. The 'Indo-Aryans' are regarded as the Aryans who migrated to India.
The Aryans were agricultural people who were semi-nomadic. The Aryans migrated to the Indian subcontinent in 1500 BCE. This large community of nomadic cattle herders, coming from central Asia, crossed the Hindu Kush Mountains and came into contact with the Indus Valley Civilization. Therefore, option A is correct.
The Neolithic era was 6500 BC, the first civilization in Mesopotamia was 3500 BC, and the Mesolithic period was 8000 BC. With the Sintashta culture (2100-1800 BCE), and the Andronovo culture, which flourished, the Proto-Indo-Iranians, from which the Indo-Aryans evolved, are recognised. 1800-1400 BCE, present-day Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan in the steppes around the Aral sea.
As none of these timelines refers to the migration of the Aryans, option B, C, and D are incorrect.
Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

Note: It should be noted that the people of the Indus Valley Civilization gave as much as they got from the Aryan migrants culturally, and the interaction was mutually beneficial.
