1 jan 1500 ano antes da era comum - The Aryan Invasions of India
Descrição:
When the Aryans invaded India they have brought culture of ferocity and war as well as their warrior deities. In doing so, they referred to themselves as "superior ones" or "noble ones." During their time of arrival, the Aryans enslaved a number of the native people in the valley and killed many more to send the message that they were not to be crossed, meaning that there will be consequences if you mess with them. Gradually, Aryan tribal kings were changing from tribal leaders to autocratic rulers. They had begun associating their power with the powers of their gods rather than the approval of their fellow tribesmen and had begun allying themselves with priests. And, as in West Asia, kings were acquiring divinity. By taxing their subjects, these kings could create an army that was theirs rather than an instrument of the tribe. These armies formed a horse-owning aristocracy and were sometimes led in combat by the king, who identified himself grandly as a warrior.
