Human imagination could be relatively easily succumbed to manipulations. Those who know the way our mind works are able to persuade us in believing many things. Sometimes we believe in not what is most logical but in what we hear most often. When alternative information lacks, it becomes the only truth for us. A hard and intrusive lie will start to sound truthful over time. Thus many misconceptions were created and one of them is about the origin of the Aryans.

In the beginning of the 20th century some persons usurped the achievements of the Aryans and attributed them to their nations. In that time a few people were familiar with the language and the culture of the ancient conquerors of India, so this imposed deception still has supporter. The term Indo-Germanic is still in use, although there is no absolutely whatsoever scientific grounds for it. To call yourself an Aryan and to repeat it up to the state of insanity is one thing, which entirely differs from actually being able to prove it. The German nations have nothing in common with ancient Aryans neither with their language, nor with their culture or genes. There are no ancient sources connecting the Germans with the nation worshiping Agni (the fire), Surya (the sunrise) and Svarga (the heaven – Svarog).

In order to show the truth, firstly it must be explained what Aryans mean, what is typical about them and where to look for their ancient native land… This nation was one of the mightiest in the antiquity. The Aryans conquered many other tribes of various origins and imposed their language and culture. Most people relate the Aryans only to India, but the original homeland of the ancient worshipers of Agni-fire is in Europe, in the spacious steppes of the Black sea region. The sacred animal of the Aryans – the horse was domesticated in Eastern Europe during the 4th millennium BC. The Aryan word for horse – ashva is a version of the Thracian esva, which means fast. Ashva relates to the Bulgarian dialect word, oyasvam – hurry, run. Again in Eastern Europe appeared the first mound burials, at least twelve hundred years before the same custom of raising moulds above royal graves occurred in India.

Aryan word for supreme ruler is raja and it comes from the Thracian word reza – king, which was recorded for the first time on a tablet with linear writing (NT13 – 18th century BC). Rez, rega was also a title used by the rulers Musokyi and Prebund, whose tribes were a major component of the population of Danubian Bulgaria.

The swastika can be named as an important Aryan symbol. This sun sign first appeared in the lands of the Thracians, as early as in the Stone-Copper Age, and the meaning of the word swastika can be easily explained in Bulgarian language. The swastika as a sun sign and ornament has been used in Bulgarian lands (and not in German lands) for more than 6000 years.
Of extreme importance are the data from the genetic studies of Skulj, Sharda and Sonina showing that the Indian aristocracy is genetically closer to the Eastern Europeans than to their Indian neighbours. It refers to the genetic marker Р1 а1, which is typical for the founders of the Kurganskaya culture (belongs to the creators of the mound burials), who are the true Aryans. It is not only that the Aryan gene Р1 а1 is most common for the Eastern Europeans, but it must be said that its oldest version is from the Balkans, i.e. Ancient Thrace.
