People from the "middle east" of that time were basically Greeks and Italians. Mediterranean. Not at all what modern middle easterners are today. Closer to classic Persians.
What is "middle eastern" today is heavily warped by Islamic conquests in the past two centuries.
Except they existed and you can directly follow their movement across regions and cultures.
The iconography and temples built by the Aryans and their offshoot groups can be found across Asia and you can follow their movement along the coasts and inland into Mongolia/China.
The biggest repository of their history comes from India as a group settled there and basically built India as we know it from the ground up.
The Islamic conquests came from the Middle-East. No, we don't know that much about ancient Aryan (Indo-Iranian) temples except from some Vedic and Iranian sources.
A few thousand years after the time in question.
The Aryans weren't "Indo-Iranian."
Iranian as an identity didn't even exist until a few decades ago.
Stop peddling bullshit.
“A few thousand years after the time in question” so? Follow your own logic man! Read your own post to see why it makes sense.
You’re also wrong about Iran by the way, it’s an old name, but that’s not the point. Aryan as a term comes from India and Iran (Iran is actually derived from Aryan). It was probably never used by anyone ancestral to Europeans.
