what was the main factor in the expansion of aryan culture during the later vedic period explain
Answers
The Vedic period or Vedic age (c. 1500 – c. 500 BCE), is the period in the history of the northern Indian subcontinent between the end of the urban Indus Valley Civilisation and a second urbanisation which began in the central Indo-Gangetic Plain c. 600 BCE. It gets its name from the Vedas, which are liturgical texts containing details of life during this period that have been interpreted to be historical[1] and constitute the primary sources for understanding the period. These documents, alongside the corresponding archaeological record, allow for the evolution of the Vedic culture to be traced and inferred.

Answer:
The main factor in the expansion of the Aryan culture during the later Vedic period was the beginning of the use of iron around 1000BC. The Rigvedic people knew of metal called ayas which shyama or krishna meaning black to denote iron. The northern and eastern parts of India to which the Aryans later migrated receive more rainfall than the north-western part of India. The use of iron tools now helped people clear the dense rain forests particularly the huge stumps left after burning, in a more effective manner. The effect of iron tools and implements become evident only towards the end of the Later Vedic period.
