The oldest book in the world is Rig Veda if we accept the date of Herman Jacobi and Bala Gangadhara Tilak who independently dated Rig Veda between 4000 and 6000 BCE on the basis of astronomical references in the Rig Veda.

BARC carbon dating of underground water in the Sarasvati River basin and NASA’s images of dry beds of Sarasvati river also scientifically proved a date around or before 2000 BCE for the Rig Veda.

The Aitareya Brahmana and the Aitareya Aranyaka of the RV have some references to a teacher named ‘Mr.Gold tooth’ – Hiranya Dant. Keith and Macdonell in their 1912 publication of the two volume Vedic Index also noticed it and wrote that it was a reference to gold tooth. In spite of this, encyclopaedias mentioned Etruscans were the first in fixing golden teeth.

Gold was widely used in India which is proved by the innumerable references in the Vedic literature. Keith and Macdonell point out rich Vedic Hindus have Gold cups, ear rings, neck plates, gold tooth, coins etc.

Even Herodotus mentioned about the mysterious ‘Giant Ants’ entering the ground to pick up gold in India. He mistook the name of term for miners as Giant Ants. Indians are very familiar with Fish people (matsya desa) sugarcane people (Ikshvakus), Kumba karnas, Lamba Karnas etc. Poor Herodotus didn’t know it.

Following pages were taken from Vedic Index. Hindus must rewrite the history of science.
