67:6.1The fol­low­ers of Van early with­drew to the high­lands west of In­dia, where they were ex­empt from at­tacks by the con­fused races of the low­lands, and from which place of re­tire­ment they planned for the re­ha­bil­i­ta­tion of the world as their early Ba­don­ite pre­de­ces­sors had once all un­wit­tingly worked for the wel­fare of man­kind just be­fore the days of the birth of the San­gik tribes.

79:0.1Asia is the home­land of the hu­man race. It was on a south­ern penin­sula of this con­ti­nent that An­don and Fonta were born; in the high­lands of what is now Afghanistan, their de­scen­dant Bado­nan founded a prim­i­tive cen­ter of cul­ture that per­sisted for over one-half mil­lion years. Here at this east­ern fo­cus of the hu­man race the San­gik peo­ples dif­fer­en­ti­ated from the An­donic stock, and Asia was their first home, their first hunt­ing ground, their first bat­tle­field. South­west­ern Asia wit­nessed the suc­ces­sive civ­i­liza­tions of Dala­ma­tians, Nod­ites, Adamites, and And­ites, and from these re­gions the po­ten­tials of mod­ern civ­i­liza­tion spread to the world.

64:3.1Be­sides the Fox­hall peo­ples in the west, an­other strug­gling cen­ter of cul­ture per­sisted in the east. This group was lo­cated in the foothills of the north­west­ern In­dian high­lands among the tribes of Bado­nan, a great-great-grand­son of An­don. These peo­ple were the only de­scen­dants of An­don who never prac­ticed hu­man sac­ri­fice.
