Items related to The Origin of the Aryans
A fine overview of early European racial anthropology, first published in a time before political correctness and leftist hatred suppressed the science. Taylor, the Canon of York, provides a comprehensive summary of the vexed issue of the origins of the Indo-European peoples. Taylor's book was the first major English-language work to reject the Ex oriente lux theory of Indo-European origins in favor of a birthplace in southern Russia. Using a thorough evaluation of cranial, archaeological and cultural evidence, he presents his conclusion. Often attacked and dismissed by contemporaries, modern DNA has proven many of Taylor's theories to be completely accurate. About the author: Isaac Taylor (1829-1901) was a philologist, toponymist, and Anglican canon of York, England, from 1885 until his death. He specialised in ancient history and his studies of the origin of European peoples. His major archaeological and philological studies were Words and Places (1864), Etruscan Researches (1874), The Alphabet (1883), Greeks and Goths (1879), and The Origin of the Aryans (1880).
