disputable claims(no scientific standards), no reference to any academic work, reads like a fantasy story Wandalstouring (talk) 13:33, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

  • Delete No refs. Dubious theory. Aymatth2 (talk) 14:07, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
  • Comment Written by somebody who's new to Wikipedia. While contributions are appreciated, the basic rule is that they have to be sourced to something already in existence. It's possible that other persons have compared Greek and Hindu mythology and drawn some of the same conclusions (try Google search), but "original synthesis" (i.e., drawing your own conclusions and stating your own knowledge, rather than quoting from the conclusions and research of another) isn't permitted in an article.

  • Delete Looks like someone's personal theory. Edward321 (talk) 15:33, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
  • Delete Original research, seems to be trying to discredit Hinduism. Empire3131 (talk) 16:20, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
  • Comment I had more time to look into the subject. There's a professor Max Muller who "would even trace the origin of the Trojan war in the epic of the immortal Homer to the stories of the Panis and Sarainá in the Rig Veda."([http://www.india-forum.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=1367&pid=92287&st=270&#entry92287 Forum discussing theories on Indian history]) Personally, I have doubts whether they all can't just be traced back to the same Eurasian myth.
