R̥gvedisch púr

Authors

In the present article, I will re-investigate the Rgvedic instances of pur, reaching the conclusion that the Indo-Aryans encountered an extensive front of determinedly resisting purs. In part, they must have been larger edifices thatcould protect several hundred or even thousand persons, and that also were inhabited. The population of the purs is described by the Vedic people as"black-skinned"; it did not adhere to the Aryan cult.
