Puranic literature mentions Suratha as son of Jahnu(from the name of Janhabi, another name of the Ganges); King Viduratha was heir of Suratha; Rksa was heir of Viduratha; Bhimasena was heir to Rkas; Dilip was son of Bhimasena; Dilip’s son was Pratipa; Devapi, Santanu, and Bahlika were the three sons of Dilip; Bahlika’s son was Somadatta; and latter’s sons were : Bhuri, Bhurisrava, and Sala.
Santanu ‘s wife was Ganga, daughter of Sage Janhu, whose son was Bhisma. These purrnic names find name of a kingdom with each of them, and describes the genealogy in a way which latter historians failed to systematise and put the world history in a unified manner. History as written by eminent historians of our times, and as handed over to us though textbooks, stand in a demonic form whose pillars cannot be changed or broken unless a tsunami happens to take the treasure of false wisdoms back to ocean, and change canopy of academic scholarship returned to void. Ganga-dese is in Tibet; Gondwana in Australia; Ganges in North India; Ganga dynasty in Odisha, and the river Bhagirathu in Bengal, and Radha is a lost continent; and the Avesta is in Iran.
The academic knowledge on ancient Magadha and Kosala on one hand, and Thebes or Sivi and Crete or Cete or Cetiya on the other, is so untruthful, vague, rough, and unsystematic, that they alone seem to have destroyed the history of human civilization and the history of origin of man. No one can change this status now whose academic-territory spans from one corner of the world to another; and spirits of former academicians comes to visit their works called through references and bibliographies that puts the ocean of dead knowledge expands from this world to another world with respect and regards to spread misogamy of false knowledge.
Ganga refers to the country of Radha; the latter refers to Astagrama/Saptagrama of some ancient texts including the history Ester Island. It is the other name of Rangha of the Avesta, one of the Sixteen Good-lands of the Avesta and marks the birthplace of Ahura Mazda. The latter name again refers to Sage Mogha, the Bodhisattva Indra, of all ancient literature. His hermitage marks the source of the river Ganges, and also identifies the Magians of the ancient world, the most influential priest class people of the world whose history cannot be isolated from the world history. Magians were same as Meghas of Kalinga; and according to Pali sources, one member of this community attacked Simhala and took away many valuables from that island.
Now International Commission of Stratigraphi(ICS) has taken one cave in Meghalaya as representing the Meghalaya Age of the Holocene period which represents the geological time of the earth for the last 4,200 years. The learned Members of the ICS are ignorant of the term ‘Megha’; and this is how academic scholarship develops its ‘scales’ to measure its own knowledge of the ancient world. And this happens on a neo-nationalistic trend.
River Ganges is geographically linked to Gundivana of the epic the Mahabharata, and to the land of the Gandaridae people who were anciently identified with this river, the forest Gundivana and also with Ganga dynasty. Interestingly, while academic scholarship finds Gundivana as Gondwana and declares it as a lost continent, it finds the Ganges still flowing in its original ancient course. Not only that, while scholars working on the lost Gondwana sees Ganga-dese in Tibet, advances the theory that in former days, present day river Ganges was in the lost continent of Gundivana.
Alexander learned from Poros that a ‘barber’ has become the king of his neighbourly kingdom by killing the king with help of his queen. He did not name the kingdom as belonging to the Gangaridae people but called it as ‘barber’s kingdom; Ganga dynasty which is known to history with this name also finds the same narratives with the history of Roman civilization where Roman .(Please, see the history of Barbar Hills through the history of Asoka’s period).kings fought against this king. The geographical nomenclature of ‘barber’ and ‘barbarians’ do not bear any historical difference because there is no word to identify a ‘barbar’ from which the term ‘barbarian’ has been derived, meaning ‘savages’. Both ‘barber’ and ‘barbarians’ carry the same geographical identity that locks them with the history of the Ganga dynasty. .(Please, see the history of Barbar Hills through the history of Asoka’s period).
This Ganga dynasty, which identifies the land of the Gangaridae people and a port in this name as the Periplus informs, was in control of some of the ‘Saptagrama’, means the ‘Seven Villages’, but it is wrong to see the Gangaridae people as inhabitants in all the seven villages. There were Magians as well as the people of Radha among them, and the latter were the very interesting people in history who were also regarded as the Parthians. This name identifies them with Rhadamanthys of the Greeks who was the brother of Minos, and who after migrating to ‘East’ became a ‘Judge’ there. He married to Alcaman, name of a ‘deity’ in Indian puranic tradition like ‘Radha’. Both have become generic names in Indian literature. Avesta finds ‘Radha’ as belonging to ‘three races’ whose name find him a place in history of ancient Egypt, and also in the history of ancient Jerusalem. All the seven villages find their respective history connected with the City of Sun, and also with the river Ganges.
A volcanic eruption dried this river and also the river Scamander or the river Chandrabhaga as both the rivers were very close to the seat of the volcano, forcing ancient migration from this place. The port as mentioned by the Periplus disappeared; Ganga as a country is mentioned in the Karhad Plate Inscription of Krishna III(See Ep.Ind,Vol.IV,p.278), and also in Harihara and Belur Inscriptions (Rice’s Mysore Inscriptions,pp.70,222). These inscriptions tell us the story of ancient migration from the original seat of Ganga dynasty near the Sun Temple at Konark.
In the first mentioned inscription, Ganga is placed between Kalinga and Magadha ; but unfortunately, Mr Schoff in his notes on the Periplu says ‘it is (a place) in Bengal’.
Many historians, similarly, see this Ganga dynasty ruled over Mysore from 2nd to 9th A.D. ; and a branch ruled Odisha(Msore Insc.Nos 151-159 , pp.70,222,262) (Ibid Intro,XLVII). These are disastrous finding of historians, and needs immediate correction. Chora Ganga killed the Mandara king on the bank of the Ganges. He did this after his conquest of Utkal, and Mandara. Both Utkal and Mandara are neighbouring to each other and are very close to the village Radha and the Gangadvara of the river Ganges. Historians who see Suhma same as Radha (JASB,1895,p.139 note ; 1896,p.241) are not totally wrong. Because Suhma which is identified as a Greek settlement in the ‘north’, is not far away from the settlements of Radhas. The latter migrated from the ‘north’ to ‘east’. Radha was the seat of the Ganga kings of Orissa in the 12th c A.D. But this does not reflect the village Radha near the Sun Temple at Konark.
Chitra who was the King of the Gangayani sees his royal seat of administration at Chitra itself. This name finds two places in the epics. Village Citra is very close to the village Radha near the Sun Temple. And this seat of Ganga dynasty still lives with name of a village near this. Its wonderful history lives well with brilliant history of the village Sri Kantha near it.
