Linguistic Archaeology: The Dark Ones

The Dark Ones
The *Darku* are most likely to have originated in the indus valley proto-culture. The presence of an Aboriginal Australian clan doesnt throw this into doubt. They have arrived in Australia with the 'i' vowel in a post ku period. This clan does however represent the single family group present in five japanese family names, implying recent back migration or divergance. Its not uncommon for Aboriginal warriors to have ventured into Asia by canoe.

The Darku: dae/dau/dai/day*/dak/dru/dry*/dre/dri

Update: Darku is a family name in Ghana, and Dai is a Chinese Family name, so the spread is extensive.

This is occuring around the same time period as the minoans are emerging as a culture.
