>>17410588I tried to check wither what you said is true or not but I couldn't find a source for this reconstruction (I was using it for a long time. I forgot the source). But from my memory she was from the Neolithic Zagros 8000 BC.
Maybe you were thinking of pic related? she is a hunter gatherer from the Mesolithic and she's incredible.
>Standing at ~167cm tall, the woman was described as "a real Amazon, stronger, taller, and slenderer than average of ancient Greek, Medieval Norwegian, or modern American women."so did you confuse the two reconstructions or is my original image actually not from the Neolithic?
>>17410589there are many ways you can use the terms "cradle of civilization". The way I used was to describe the first 5 civilizations from the copper age and the early bronze age. Mesopotamia, Egypt, Indus valley, China and BMAC. BMAC also contributed to the Yaz culture. Both of which are seen as the cultures that Zoroastrianism can be traced back to. They also contributed to the Indo-Iranian culture. Many scholars believe Indra and the Rig Vedas have their roots in Indo-Iranian nomads as well as BMAC agriculturalists. Indra is not an Indo-Iranian name. So it likely was the name of a BMAC deity. at least that's what many academics suggest and believe. I think we can be confident in the evidence
