"Гляциологическая интерпретация основного мифа Ригведы и проблема прародины индоевропейцев"

Семененко Александр Андреевич

Аннотация

Статья посвящена изучению основного индоиранского мифа, зафиксированного в Ригведе, мифа о борьбе между солнечным богом и горным змеем. Уже более столетия предлагалось интерпретировать битву между Индрой и ВалаВритрой как гляциологическое событие, о котором свидетельствуют ведические провидцы, последнюю серию голоценовой трансгрессии и регрессии статических гороподобных и особенно подвижных змеевидных ледников Гималаев и Гиндукуша. Научный подход требовал прочной базы фактических данных, чтобы превратить эту интерпретацию в научную теорию. Эта база была получена недавно путем анализа образцов почвы из-под морен Пакистана, Индии и Непала, датирующих две последние ледниковые трансгрессии Гималаев и Гиндукуша около 6100-6000 и 3600-3300 гг. до н.э. Эта датировка соответствует культурному словарю индоевропейцев, свидетельствам Авесты, археологии Южной Азии и аграрным особенностям региона Афганистан-Пенджаб-Кашмир, где был создан этот главный индоиранский миф. Таким образом, сочинение гимнов Ригведы между 3300 и 2600 годами до н. э. и локализация индоевропейской прародины на стыке Ирана и Индостана были ещё раз доказаны.

Ключевые слова: индоевропейцы, индоарии, иранцы, Ригведа, Авеста, ледники.
