🔑Key Points

✔In the late 18th century, Europeans began using the term Aryan to refer to the original prehistoric Proto-Indo-Europeans

✔Their descendants up to the present day (i.e., the Indo-European peoples—those Caucasians who are speakers of the Indo-European languages) and who were thought to have settled in prehistoric times in ancient Iran and the northern Indian subcontinent also used the term Aryan.

✔The Aryans succeeded in their conflicts with the pre-Aryans because they used chariots driven by horses.

✔The success of Aryans over pre-Aryans can be attributed to the fact that the former had more advanced Bronze and Iron tools, ox-carts and horse carts with light spoked wheels.

✔Horse-drawn chariots, as well as its cult and associated rituals, were spread by the Indo-Iranians, and horses and horse-drawn chariots were introduced in India by the Indo-Aryans.
