Default Aryan Agrarian

Here's a "proem" I found a long time ago googling around:

And somewhere in that migration now believed to be Ukraine,

These pale skinned agricultural men encountered the horses they would tame,

They attached them to the wheel and rode them south again,

Like warm air rising then cooling and coming back down,

White skin dropping back south where once they had been brown,

Like Vikings of the land but with horses and chariots too,

Back south they traveled over how many a migration and generation as their numbers grew,

Definitely not from a "WN" angle, but pretty faithful to all the general ideas in the present, finalized picture of the Aryans / Indo-Europeans, with the occasional rhyme.

"Finalized" by whom, for instance? J.P. Mallory?

One could say his book is a more than adequate summary, despite some weakness in the linguistics and an over-reliance on Dumézil in mythology. There are two or three other scholars whose work is as valuable as his. Taken together, nothing need be added to "Indo-European research"; could stand a heavy rewriting, but who is talented enough to strike a balance between encomium and description.

I beg to differ. There is still a great deal of debate and learning needed in the field of Indo-European studies.

Careful, insisting on a "need for debate on this topic" is a Jewish tactic to avoid final solutions!

Uhh, no. Even with the Homeland thesis alone, everyone knows there is still debate.
