Animated Cartoon: The History of Religion in the Holy Land

3. I stopped when I went to check out why it said the Sumerians emigrated from India.

It's a theory pretty much nobody but Indians and those who really don't want Sumerians to be indigenous for some reason accept. It grasps at straws using 100-year-old hypotheses that rest on 125-year-old conclusions based on mostly inaccurate data. Ditch the inaccurate part, and you're left with insufficient information for any hypothesis.

Nationalism makes a bad bedrock for theories that need to argue ex silencio.

What's amusing is the assumption that they "appeared" and had to come from somewhere. Now, for Amerindians, yes--there was no human presence here before a certain date. But for Mesopotamia, that date is long, long before the Sumerians put their first stylus to clay.
