Even as your tone sounds dismissive, I think you are asking the right questions, which may be of help to every one.

>The only writing script that has been used by Lithuanian so far is
Latin. Is it from India, too?

Not necessary. You seem to be assuming that I am saying EVERYTHING cultural  under the sun (and perhaps, above it , too) has been  out of India.  Thanks,  I think I am doing better than that.


Every culture will have  influences from many areas and cultures, with one or two being most pre dominant. The Livthuvians could be having such multiple set of influences too, with one of the predominant progression could be from India, which may not be really direct.

Wrong. Who's the scholar supporting the idea of «Mayas from India»? ,,,Do you really think this is enough proof?


This is one of my own hypothesis, after reading Mayans. If you read the literature about Daityas (a semi historical tribe who were the sons of Danu in India)  and ASSUME it is historical, you would find much similarity  between them and Mayans.

The most significant part of it is there was a famous Daitya called Maya, who was a famous architect and engineer being present at the time of MBh, who left India for far off places.  The traditional dating of MBh tallies with the Mayan dating.    You cant simply dismiss  so much   similarity  between a historical (and architecturally known civilization) and so called Mythological legends as merely coincidental.

On the basis of "everything comes from India"?

NOt every thing obviously.... but you cant deny that several things that have come from India are not accepted  to be so.
