Summary
Episode from The Immortal India Podcast with Amish Tripathi & Jijith Nadumuri Ravi In this illuminating episode of The Immortal India Podcast, author Amish Tripathi welcomes Jijith Nadumuri Ravi, a former ISRO space scientist and author of Rivers of Rigveda. Together, they explore a fascinating perspective on human origins and migrations — the idea that while Homo sapiens first evolved in Africa, India became the central cradle for populations outside the continent.What's Inside:Trace the remarkable journey of the early explorers who left Africa, followed coastal routes across now-submerged Arabian and Iranian shores, and established themselves in the Indian subcontinent.Understand the science behind this theory, supported by genetics and insights from the Human Genome Project. About the Guest:Jijith Nadumuri Ravi is a former ISRO scientist and the author of Rivers of Rigveda, which delves into the geo-chronology of the Rigveda and offers a fresh update on the Out of India Theory. His other acclaimed works include Geography of Ramayana and Geography of Mahabharata, where he intricately maps ancient Indian texts to real-world geography.(Amish, Jijith, Africa, India, Human origins, Human Migrations, Human Genome Project) Like, share, and subscribe for more from the Immortal India Podcast.Social media channels:Instagram: @authoramishFacebook: @authoramishX/Twitter: @authoramish#ImmortalIndiaPodcast#AmishTripathi#JijithNadumuriRavi#HumanOrigins#HumanMigration#OutOfAfricaTheory#OutOfIndiaTheory#AncientIndia#IndianCivilization#HumanGenomeProject#GeneticsResearch#Rigveda#RiversOfRigveda#IndianHistory#VedicHistory#Archaeogenetics#Anthropology#SciencePodcast#HistoryPodcast#IndiaAfricaConnections#AncientMigration#ISROScientist#AmishInterviews#IndianKnowledgeSystems
