The Violet Race After the Days of Adam

78:5.1For twenty thou­sand years the cul­ture of the sec­ond gar­den per­sisted, but it ex­pe­ri­enced a steady de­cline un­til about 15,000 B.C., when the re­gen­er­a­tion of the Sethite priest­hood and the lead­er­ship of Amosad in­au­gu­rated a bril­liant era. The mas­sive waves of civ­i­liza­tion which later spread over Eura­sia im­me­di­ately fol­lowed the great re­nais­sance of the Gar­den con­se­quent upon the ex­ten­sive union of the Adamites with the sur­round­ing mixed Nod­ites to form the And­ites.

78:5.2These And­ites in­au­gu­rated new ad­vances through­out Eura­sia and North Africa. From Mes­o­po­ta­mia through Sinkiang the And­ite cul­ture was dom­i­nant, and the steady mi­gra­tion to­ward Eu­rope was con­tin­u­ously off­set by new ar­rivals from Mes­o­po­ta­mia. But it is hardly cor­rect to speak of the And­ites as a race in Mes­o­po­ta­mia proper un­til near the be­gin­ning of the ter­mi­nal mi­gra­tions of the mixed de­scen­dants of Adam. By this time even the races in the sec­ond gar­den had be­come so blended that they could no longer be con­sid­ered Adamites.

78:5.3The civ­i­liza­tion of Tur­kes­tan was con­stantly be­ing re­vived and re­freshed by the new­com­ers from Mes­o­po­ta­mia, es­pe­cially by the later And­ite cav­al­ry­men. The so-called Aryan mother tongue was in pro­cess of for­ma­tion in the high­lands of Tur­kes­tan; it was a blend of the An­donic di­alect of that re­gion with the lan­guage of the Ad­am­son­ites and later And­ites. Many mod­ern lan­guages are de­rived from this early speech of these cen­tral Asian tribes who con­quered Eu­rope, In­dia, and the up­per stretches of the Mes­o­po­ta­mian plains. This an­cient lan­guage gave the Oc­ci­den­tal tongues all of that sim­i­lar­ity which is called Aryan.

78:5.4By 12,000 B.C. three quar­ters of the And­ite stock of the world was res­i­dent in north­ern and east­ern Eu­rope, and when the later and fi­nal ex­o­dus from Mes­o­po­ta­mia took place, sixty-five per cent of these last waves of em­i­gra­tion en­tered Eu­rope.

78:5.5The And­ites not only mi­grated to Eu­rope but to north­ern China and In­dia, while many groups pen­e­trated to the ends of the earth as mis­sion­ar­ies, teach­ers, and traders. They con­tributed con­sid­er­ably to the north­ern groups of the Sa­ha­ran San­gik peo­ples. But only a few teach­ers and traders ever pen­e­trated far­ther south in Africa than the head­wa­ters of the Nile. Later on, mixed And­ites and Egyp­tians fol­lowed down both the east and west coasts of Africa well be­low the equa­tor, but they did not reach Mada­gas­car.

78:5.6These And­ites were the so-called Dra­vid­ian and later Aryan con­querors of In­dia; and their pres­ence in cen­tral Asia greatly up­stepped the an­ces­tors of the Tu­ra­ni­ans. Many of this race jour­neyed to China by way of both Sinkiang and Ti­bet and added de­sir­able qual­i­ties to the later Chi­nese stocks. From time to time small groups made their way into Japan, For­mosa, the East In­dies, and south­ern China, though very few en­tered south­ern China by the coastal route.

78:5.7One hun­dred and thirty-two of this race, em­bark­ing in a fleet of small boats from Japan, even­tu­ally reached South Amer­ica and by in­ter­mar­riage with the na­tives of the An­des es­tab­lished the an­ces­try of the later rulers of the In­cas. They crossed the Pa­cific by easy stages, tar­ry­ing on the many is­lands they found along the way. The is­lands of the Poly­ne­sian group were both more nu­mer­ous and larger then than now, and these And­ite sailors, to­gether with some who fol­lowed them, bi­o­log­i­cally mod­i­fied the na­tive groups in tran­sit. Many flour­ish­ing cen­ters of civ­i­liza­tion grew up on these now sub­merged lands as a re­sult of And­ite pen­e­tra­tion. Easter Is­land was long a re­li­gious and ad­min­is­tra­tive cen­ter of one of these lost groups. But of the And­ites who nav­i­gated the Pa­cific of long ago none but the one hun­dred and thirty-two ever reached the main­land of the Amer­i­cas.

78:5.8The mi­gra­tory con­quests of the And­ites con­tin­ued on down to their fi­nal dis­per­sions, from 8000 to 6000 B.C. As they poured out of Mes­o­po­ta­mia, they con­tin­u­ously de­pleted the bi­o­logic re­serves of their home­lands while markedly strength­en­ing the sur­round­ing peo­ples. And to ev­ery na­tion to which they jour­neyed, they con­tributed hu­mor, art, ad­ven­ture, mu­sic, and man­u­fac­ture. They were skill­ful do­mes­ti­ca­tors of an­i­mals and ex­pert agri­cul­tur­ists. For the time be­ing, at least, their pres­ence usu­ally im­proved the re­li­gious be­liefs and moral prac­tices of the older races. And so the cul­ture of Mes­o­po­ta­mia qui­etly spread out over Eu­rope, In­dia, China, north­ern Africa, and the Pa­cific Is­lands.
