Daniel Costa · Answer 1

- They were all blonde, blue-eyed and tall

- They were warriors and invaders

Explanation:

The Aryans were an ethno-linguistic group of people that emerged in Central Asia, most probably in the lowlands between the Black Sea and the western part of what is now Kazakhstan. These people started to spread out from their cradle, with the main reasons being finding new lands for grazing, hunting, or simply new territory for living as their population was constantly on the rise, and the steppe was not providing enough for them to sustain a large population.

There are two general characteristics that are always associated with the Aryans. One of them is that they were all blonde, had blue eyes, and were tall, while the other one is that they were warriors, aggressive, and invaders.

These two perceptions are probably partially true, but partially not. For example, there are lot of remains of the Aryans, and it has been noticed that apart from blonde hair, the red hair has been very common as well, and in lesser percentage the brown one. When it comes to the warriors and invaders part, it is also fifty-fifty situation. For example, the Aryans that came into the Balkans literary invaded the peninsula and no trace has been left by the earlier populations. On the other hand, the Aryans that moved toward the Indian subcontinent seem to have mixed and integrated with he Dravidians without any wars or battles taking place.

They were all blonde, blue-eyed and tall.

They were warriors and invaders.

Aryans were the group of people settled their life at the periphery of Indus river which comprises India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan.

Explanation:

Indus valley or Harappan civilisation is built by the Aryans which is practiced by the urban way of life. They had proper sanitation, storage houses, proper bisected roads, burnt brick houses, toilet facilities and so on. Contemporary civilisation like Mesopotamia and Nile valley civilisations are practiced by rural or under developed people but Aryans are well developed than surrounding settlements. They look like tall people, so they were well developed in invading the other settlements and behave like the warriors.
