area of human habitat in 1900 india
Answers
Answer:
The peopling of India refers to the migration of Homo sapiens into the Indian subcontinent. Anatomically modern humans settled India in multiple waves of early migrations, over tens of millennia.[1] The first migrants came with the Coastal Migration/Southern Dispersal 65,000 years ago, whereafter complex migrations within south and southeast Asia took place. West-Eurasian hunter-gatherers migrated to South Asia after the Last Glacial Period but before the onset of farming. Together with a minor number of ancient South Asian hunter-gatherers they formed the population of the Indus Valley Civilisation (IVC).
Successive dispersal of human lineages during the peopling of Eurafrasia.
With the decline of the IVC, and the migration of Indo-Europeans, the IVC-people contributed to the formation of both the Ancestral North Indians ("ANI"), who were closely related to contemporary West-Eurasians, and the Ancestral South Indians ("ASI"), who were descended from both the Southeastern Indian hunter gatherers (known as "AASI", who were distantly related to the Andamanese, Aboriginal Australians, and East Asians), and from West-Eurasian hunter gatherers from Iran or Northwestern India. These two ancestral populations (ASI and ANI) mixed extensively between 1,900-4,200 years ago, after the fall of the IVC and their respective southward migration,[2] and created the peoples inhabiting the Indian subcontinent today, while the migrations of the Munda people and the Tibeto-Burmese speaking people from East Asia also added new elements.
