The combined evidence from Rig Veda and Avestha shows that the only
"home" these people may have shared is North Western India.

It is very difficult to accept an Indo-Iranian invasion into India
because there is no physical evidence for it; the evidence from IEL
does not preclude an Indian homeland scenerio (Hock 1990's).

How do you account for the river names :
dniepr and dniestr
Well-known to be Indo-Iranian ?

There is little physical evidence for about all invasions.

this argument is used by Renfrew to ""prove""
PIE came from Anatolia
and PIE reached GB in - 4 000 BC !

There is no physical evidence that
either Celts nor Germanic people nor William
ever invaded the territory of England.
