Description

I've been pretty proud about the journey we've taken together learning about the Indo-Europeans. The linguistics versus the cultures versus the religions. We've done a lot of comparing and contrasting, and a lot of deep dive exploration. But we've spent a lot more time on the European side of the term. Today we put the focus on the Indo aspects.

To do so in an academic manner, we welcome back Professor Michael York. From the heart of the Steppes, we go in many directioms, but mostly stick to the East. From modern day Iran to Western China, and the vast lands between, we touch on the Eastern aspects.

Sure, we stray periodically back to Greece or Egypt or Thrace, we force outselves back to India and the Central Asian "Stans". We visit the ancient pantheons, Zoro Astur, Mithras, and into the Dharmic religions. As always when a professor is tolerating a semi edicated monkey (me), we get sublime and ridiculous. But the Garden does not disappoint.
