Abstract

There are many theories about the origin of Kashmir. However, the exact origin of the people of Kashmir is not fully established and could be an interesting subject for research. It is not known whether any anthropological or any DNA study of Kashmir is has ever been attempted? There is only one definite and irrefutable scientific evidence about the beginning of human civilization in Kashmir and that is the Neolithic culture (new Stone Age). So far as the Neolithic culture of Kashmir is concerned, nearly forty Neolithic sites have been discovered, they are located on the elevated karewas deposits overlooking rivers and lakes. Very few of these have been excavated and the remaining sites are still waiting to be excavated.
