Aryans out of India theory

#ShrikantGTalageri: Aryans out of India theory. Very interesting. If Aryans moved from India to Europe, apart from their language, technology, rituals, gods etc, they would have carried with them some stories of physical features of India such as Saraswati, Sindhu etc. If something survives as legends in Europe, that would be interesting. Also, in India the Vedas were remembered and passed on. Why did the Aryans who moved on to Europe stop this practice? Or, was there a subgroup responsible for preserving knowledge and only traders and mercenaries move out? Also, if Aryans were the people of Indus valley, will it now be possible to decipher their script? Why was there urbanization skill lost for a long tine after decline of Indus Valley civilization? Does the lifestyle mentioned in the RgVeda correspond to urban living at least in part? When did horses come to India? Horses are important in Aryan literature; do we find some evidence of their use in the Indus Valley civilization?
