Ever since the 17th century, scholars have noted similarities among the more than 400 dialects of the Indo-European languages. Researchers agree that they can all be traced back to one ancestral language, called Proto-Indo-European (PIE) or Aryan. Who were they, where did they originate from, and what was their influence on modern civilization? Here’s more from Robert Sepehr, author and anthropologist.
The Biblical Magi were the ancient Chaldean and Zoroastrian (Mithraic) priest caste of Mesopotamia whose esoteric Mystery teachings were disseminated after the fall of Babylon in the 6th century BC by captive Israelites who were freed by Cyrus the Great.
In his book Morals and Dogma, Albert Pike states that the Oriental (Aryan) Kabbalah of the Magi predates and was later adopted into Jewish mysticism. The Kabbalah was then encoded and integrated into Esoteric Christianity or Gnosticism, Hermeticism, Alchemy, Sufi sects, and ancient Greek and Egyptian Mystery School religions (Mysteries).
Kabbalah was linked to the Knights Templar, Rosicrucians, and Scottish Rite Freemasonry. Here’s more from Robert Sepehr, author and anthropologist.
The Celts or Celtic people were comprised of a collection of Indo-European clans that can be identified by their languages, music, dance, textiles, symbols, religious practices and other cultural similarities overseen by Druids, members of the high-ranking priestly class in ancient Celtic cultures. Here’s more from Robert Sepehr, author and anthropologist.
Aryans once spread across much of Asia. A few lingering tribes attest to their former dominance — including the agricultural Kalash tribe of Pakistan as well as the Yazidi, a Kurdish-speaking tribe found primarily in Iraq. Here, author and anthropologist Robert Sepehr introduces the customs and practices of the Kalash, visited many times in years past by Lady Diana.
Archaeological, linguistic and recent genetic evidence indicates that most of the ethnic groups in India descend from a mixture of at least two very distinct populations in the history of the Indian subcontinent, but where did each of these groups originate from and when did this admixture take place? Here’s more from Robert Sepehr, author and archaeologist.
Are white people aliens? Or descendants from an Aryan race that inhabited the mythical kingdom of Atlantis? Robert Sepehr, author and anthropologist, weighs the various theories, exploring the beliefs of the Nazis as well as more ancient Aryan cultures, like those found on the Canary Islands.
The Amorites flourished in the Middle East during the Bronze Age and went on to dominate Babylon. These were large and stout people, which led some scholars to refer to the Amorites as “giants.” While they were spread throughout the Middle East, their homeland could be Found in Phoenicia, Canaan and present-day Syria.
