As some of the links at the URL I sent to the list look dead, here's Witzel & Farmer's famous article on the Harappan Horse Hoax in PDF format, with splendid illustrations:

-- and a comment by an eminent Indian historian:

Talking of Michael Witzel (of Harvard), he is also the author of the most thorough, competent, eloquent and _devastating_ refutation of all the aspects and variants of the "Out of India" theory I've ever seen published. It is available online and I recommend it very warmly to anyone interested in the prehistory of India and not deterred by the technical discussion of the linguistic issues involved and the sheer length of the article:
