Q. The people who migrated from the region of the Caspian sea were called
(a) Dravidians
(b) Aryans
(c) Euro Asians
(d) Africans
Ans: (b) Aryans
Explanation: The correct answer is (b) Aryans.
The term “Aryans” is commonly used to refer to the people who migrated from the region of the Caspian Sea and entered the Indian subcontinent around 1500 BCE. These migrations, known as the Aryan migrations or Aryan invasions, brought a new Indo-European language and culture to the Indian subcontinent. The Aryans settled in various parts of the subcontinent and their Vedic civilization eventually gave rise to the Vedic period in ancient India. It is important to note that the term “Aryan” has been the subject of much debate and has different connotations in different contexts, including linguistic, cultural, and racial.
