I. 52. To Indra.

6 He gets hot. The force is energized.

Having dammed up the waters, lay at the bottom of space,

When Vritra, who is difficult to catch in the rapids,

You, Indra, hit the jaws with thunder

10 The most formidable sky due to the roar of this snake

Withdrawn from fear when your vajra, O Indra,

Intoxicated, wrung out with force cut off my head

Vritra that oppressed both worlds.

I. 54. To Indra.

10 There was darkness, interfering with the foundation of the waters.

A mountain in the interior of Vritra.

I. 61. To Indra.

11 It was because of his fervor that the rivers stopped,

When he stopped them with a vajra.

I. 80. To Indra.

1 … O most powerful thunderer, by force

You wiped the snake off the ground.

4 O Indra, from the ground you kicked

Vritra, kicked out of the sky.

Unleash the flow of those associated with the Maruts

The waters that give wealth to the living.

14 Before your thunderclap,

O lord of pressing stones,

Everything that stands and that moves trembles.

II. 11. To Indra.

8 … He roared, thundering in tune with the mothers.

Amplifying the sound far to the limit

They spread the whistle made by Indra.

9 Indra pushed the sorcerer Vritra,

Lying on the great river

Two worlds trembled, frightened

The roaring vajra of this bull.

The bull’s club growled loudly

II. 20. To Indra.

7 This Indra, the killer of Vritra, blew up

Dasov, melting in a black womb, he,

II. 30. To Indra and other gods.

3 After all, he was standing right in the air

And threw a deadly weapon at Vritra,

Because I hurried to him, wrapped in fog.

Wielding a sharp weapon, Indra defeated the enemy.

5 Cast off a stone from high heaven,

With which you, intoxicated, will burn the enemy!

III. 34. To Indra.

3 Indra gripped Vritra, unleashing his strength.

He outwitted the cunning ones by using the transformation abilities.

He killed Vyansa, wanting to burn in the forests.

He made the sounds of the nights clear.

III. 53. To Indra.

11 … Let the king kill Vritra in the east, in the west, in the north.

IV. 17. To Indra.

3 With force, he split the mountain, hurling the vajra,

As a winner, showing strength.

Drunk, he killed Vritra with a vajra.

The waters quickly fled when their bull was killed.

IV. 18. Conversation of Indra, Aditi and Vamadeva.

6 These flow, making merry noise,

As if the pious are calling.

Ask them what they say

What a rock-dam they are breaking.

IV. 19. To Indra.

2 … You killed the snake that blocked the stream.

You have drilled all-pervading channels.

3 Voracious Spread Serpent,

Who cannot be woken up, who slept soundly, O Indra,

Spread across seven streams

You have smashed with a vajra out of disregard.

4 He shook powerfully the ground, the foundation,

Like the wind is water, Indra by strength.

Strongholds he crushed, playing with force.

He cut off the tops of the mountains.

5 Like women, they opened the womb,

Like chariots, the rocks moved at once.

You have calmed the flowing through, kept the waves.

You have let flow, O Indra, closed rivers.

V. 29. (To Indra).

3 … Indra killed the dragon by drinking this.

4 Then he fortified the two worlds further apart.

Although he was hiding, he nevertheless plunged the beast into horror.

A swallower snorting Danava

5 When you made the flying mares of Surya,

Those in front were behind Etashi.

6 When his ninety and nine rings

The generous one immediately smashed with a club,

The Maruts began to chant Indra on the spot.

7 Friend-Agni quickly cooked a friend.

VI. 11. (To Indra)

…intoxicated by which the sun (and) the morning dawn

You ignited by blowing up strongholds.

A huge rock, O Indra, containing the cows,

You pushed the motionless from its place.

…12 The great chained waterfall of rivers,

Closed, you released a leak – a wave of water.

On their sloping channels, O Indra, on the way

You let the active (water) flow down into the ocean.

VI. 22. (To Indra)

For that (Vritra) who has grown from such witchcraft,

(You hit) with the help of a mountain, fast as thought, about the owner of your own strength.

Even unshakable strongholds, oh very strong,

You boldly broke, O abundant one.

VII. 21. (To Indra)

3 You, Indra, made the waters flow,

Abundant, serpentine, hero.

The streams rolled out from behind you, as if on wheels,

All artificial (shafts) are shaken with fear.

VIII.3. (To Indra)

19 You pushed, O Indra,

From the high banks of Vritra.

20 … You blew the kite out of the air —

You, O Indra, have performed this feat of courage.

VIII.7. (To the Maruts)

4 Maruts sow fog,

They shake the mountains

When they go hiking in the winds

7 Those are scarlet

Bright, soar up on the hikes,

Roaring over the top of the sky.

8 Powerfully they let go of the occasion,

For the sun to move along the path

They scattered with rays.

23 They moved Vritra by the joints,

Moved mountains, without shine,

24 … (Supported) Indra in the fight against Vritra.

25 With lightning in their hands, sparkling,

Gilded helmets on my head —

Perfect jewelry for sparkle.

26 When Ushanas (and you) from afar

Arrived at Ukshno Randhra,

He roared with fear like the sky.

34 Even the mountains bow down,

Considering ourselves to be hollows,

Even the rocks gave in.

VIII. 32. (To Indra)

25 Who split the container of water

(And) let the rivers flow down

26 … killed Vritra,

Aurnavabhu, Ahisuva.

He threw snow at Arbuda.

VIII. 45. (To Indra)

30 Who just cut for Trishoka

A wide mountain that makes up the bosom,

VIII. 96. (To Indra)

…We want to sit down with Indra with bows.

Leaning back from Vritra’s snort…

X. 49. (To Indra)

6 … When growing, gradually spreading

Far beyond the bounds of space, I turned into heavenly bodies.

X. 55. (To Indra)

8 … having drunk catfish, rising to the sky

The hero in the battle blew the dasya away.

X. 89. (To Indra)

7 He killed Vritra like an ax to the trees,

He broke through the fortresses, just as he drilled the river beds.

He split the mountain, just like a new pot.

X. 111. (To Indra)

4 … He pulled a lot of spaces down,

…Through what a huge sky he penetrated with the help of the sun!

6 After the vajra, the killer of Vritra has prostrated Vritra.

The sorcery of a non-god gaining strength

You, impudent, defiantly defeated there.

X. 11З. (To Indra)

6 … When the formidable powerfully cut Vritra,

Holding water, surrounded by darkness.

7 … Thick darkness enveloped the dead.

8 … The Vritru snake, defeated by the blow of Indra,

He ate dry food like Agni with fangs…».

The catastrophe affected the entire Northern Hemisphere, including Europe, and reached South America. But the catastrophe affected the Great Lakes region more than the regions located to the south. Shock waves spread across North America, Europe and North Asia. By the time the waves began to calm down and the raging wind began to decrease, tens of millions of animals and most people in the Northern Hemisphere were killed.


The survivors fought to return to normal existence. After a few months, the situation began to stabilize, but in many areas the ground remained scorched and black. Collision, fires and waves destroyed vast tracts of the most fertile land along the ocean coast and river tributaries. Europe and North Africa were relatively quiet, but the damage from the collision was significant: tens of millions of animals died, large tracts of vegetation were burned and devastated. Europe seems to have suffered the least. In general, the territories at the edge of the glacier in Europe and Asia, remote from the seas and directions of the axis of fall, suffered less. The description in the texts of the events in these places speaks of the beginning of the growth of the forest, the augmentation of lands and the descent of waters.

«Rig Veda. I. 81. To Indra.

1 … He filled the earthly space,

Pressed light spaces into the sky.

I.103. To Indra.

2 He strengthened the earth and expanded.

After killing with the vajra (Vritra), he released the flow of water.

He killed the snake, split Rauchina.

I.187. The glorification of food.

6 … With your help, he killed the snake.

7 When, O food, that came

Shining mountains.

II. 11. To Indra.

2 You have released, O Indra, the great (rivers) that you have swollen,

Numerous snake-laden, O hero.

7 … The earth is flat,

Even the mountain, trying to escape, stopped.

8 The mountain sat down, not dodging.

He roared, thundering in tune with the mothers.

Amplifying the sound far to the limit

They spread the whistle made by Indra.

II. 20. To Indra.

7 … He gave birth to earth and waters for man.

III. 30. To Indra.

9 You have seated in a place, O Indra, abundant,

A moving, great, endless land.

the bull strengthened the sky, airspace,

Let the waters flow here, awakened to life by you!

III. 31. To Indra.

13 When the great Dhishana, in order to push (Vritra), set

(The one) who grew up in one day, spread among two worlds,

16 And the flowing waters this friend is at home

Directed to one goal, shimmering with all colors,

20 The spreading mists became transparent:

Take us safely to the other side of them!

III. 34. To Indra.

3 … He made the sounds of the nights clear.

7 With a fight, with power, Indra created a wide space

IV. 19. To Indra.

5 … You have calmed the flowing through, kept the waves.

You have let flow, O Indra, closed rivers.

8 Many glorified dawns and autumn

He let rivers flow by killing Vritra.

Blocked, squeezed jets

Opened Indra to flow on the ground.

VI.11. (To Indra)

He spread the earth – a great miracle! – wide…

When not-god, hid against the gods,

They chose Indra to fight for the sun.

VI. 72. (To Indra-Soma)

2 O Indra-Soma, you light the morning dawn,

You lead the sun upward with light.

You have strengthened the sky with a fastener,

You have spread out mother earth wide.

3 O Indra-Soma, the snake that dammed the waters,

You are killing – Vritra. The sky allowed you.

You set the rivers in motion

Made many seas wide.

VШ. 12. (To Indra)

3 Thanks to which you drove to Sindhu

Great waters like chariots

So that they flow in the right way – we ask for it.

9 Indra by the rays of the sun

Burns to ashes for Arshasan,

Trees are like Agni.

Victorious has intensified.

X. 104. (To Indra)

9 You delivered the great waters from the curse.

The only god, you stood guard over them.

O Indra, those whom you won against Vritra,

10 … He destroyed Vritra, created space.

X. 111. (To Indra)

9 Thou didst let loose the rivers swallowed up by the serpent.

Then they rushed in haste,

Those who wanted to free themselves and got free.

They don’t stop anymore, inspired.

X. 138. (To Indra)

2 You released the pregnant ones, dissolved the mountains…

You caused the growth of forest trees with your miraculous power …».

Scientists suggest that the body, which broke through three-kilometer ice over Canada at 12—13 hours on March 15, and which left the craters of the Hudson’s Bay (480 km. in diameter), Saima-Finland (290 km.), Amundsen-Canada Bay (170 km.), Baffin-Canada (120 km.), Michigan-USA (105 km.) (to them could be added the Ladoga, White, Onega lakes, the Gulf of Riga. It should be noted that the Hudson Bay crater is much larger, as the American Great Lakes are located in the outer edge of the Hudson Bay caldera) it was ice rushing at great speed.

However, finds of iridium, carbon glass, and iron dust indicate its solid composition.

The Sanskrit texts say the same. The object that destroyed Vritra is called: thunder cudgel; iron; rock – throwing weapon; projectile; a stone thrown from the sky; the hottest stone; red-hot weapons; gold; sparkling; the symbol of the brightly flaming Ushas; noisy; with a whistle rushing into battle; rushing with the speed of thought; obedient to desire; next thought; with a hundred joints; an arrow with a hundred points; with a hundred faces; with a thousand feathers; with a thousand prongs.

«Adiprava. Once a lightning was created for the mighty Indra to kill Vritra, it flew into tens and hundreds of pieces on Vritra’s head. And the breakaway part of the lightning is revered by the gods. Every means that exists in the world is considered the body of lightning».

Rig Veda. «I. 32. To Indra.

2 He killed the serpent that was resting on the mountain.

Tvashtar carved a noisy club for him.

3 … Generous grabbed a projectile – vajra.

He killed him, the firstborn of serpents.

I. 52. To Indra.

…It was Tvashtar who increased your inherent power:

He carved the club of victorious power…

You held an iron club in your hands…

When with a jagged club, O Indra,

You hit Vritra in the mouth.

I. 56. To Indra.

3. He is the winner, great in the matter of courage, without dust.

Like the top of a mountain, violent power sparkles with fervor,

Thanks to which the iron is intoxicated,

She calmed down the witchcraft

Shushnu among the allies in the stock.

I. 61. To Indra.

6 It was for him that Tvashtar carved the vajra,

The most skillful, with a whistle (torn) into battle,

I. 80. To Indra.

6 He hits him in the back

Vajra with a hundred joints.

Get drunk on catfish juice

8 Your vajras have parted

Along ninety navigable rivers.

12 Neither shock nor thunder

Vritra did not frighten Indra.

Iron overtook him

Vajra with a thousand prongs.

I. 81. To Indra.

1 … For shine, I put myself in closed

Hands of the iron vajra.

I. 85. To the Maruts.

9 When Tvashtar had sharpened a club well made,

Gold, thousand-toothed, skillful master,

I. 121. To Indra.

3 (Tvashtar) carved the vajra given to him…

You made me turn an iron (vajra with a belt) cowhide (leather),

Heavenly sling, brought by the skilled…

O lord of pressure stones, hurl that rock – throwing weapon!

…the vajra that Kavya Ushanas gave you,

Inspiring, killing enemies, decisive – sharpened.

II. 11. To Indra.

4 … Putting the sparkling vajra in your hands…

Shining, you are strengthened, O Indra,

III. 30. To Indra.

16 The rumble of close enemies is heard everywhere.

Hit them with the hottest stone!

Split them from top to bottom! Split! Defeat!

17 Pluck Rakshasa by the roots, O Indra!

Split the middle! Break off the top!

How long have you been indecisive?

Throw a red-hot dart at the hater of prayer!

VI. 11. (To Indra)

10 Here Tvashtar powerfully sharpened you,

O terrible one, Vajra with a thousand teeth, with a hundred facets,

Obedient to desire, following thoughts with which

You, O drinker of soma from the pomace, have defeated the roaring serpent.

VIII. 6. (To Indra)

6. Even the violent Vritra

He broke his head

A courageous vajra with a hundred joints.

Vajra with a hundred joints!

VIII. 100. (To Indra and Vayu)

7 … Into Vritra’s weak spot

Indra launched with a club.

8 Rushing with the speed of thought,

He broke through an iron fortress

9 Lies in the middle of the sea

Vajra covered with water.

Pay tribute to him

Continuously flowing forward.

Your insatiable shot will shoot, O Indra!

Strike like a stone thrown from the sky

Friends-deceivers with red-hot weapons!

Impudent, he threw down an iron vajra.

X. 138. (To Indra)

Whose shot is irresistible, with an outstanding, splitting…».

The catastrophe changed the composition of the population. Clovis culture disappears in North America. Contemporaries of the Clovis culture people of the Madeleine culture also experienced a sharp population decline 13 thousand years ago. In Belgium, at the excavation site of the Madeleine culture, an increase in the number of magnetic particles, metal spheres and charcoal, as well as a black blanket, is exactly the same as in North America. Magnetic particles have the highest levels of iridium.


Madeleine culture


The Clovis people appeared in the New World suddenly and remained on the historical stage for several millennia, after which about 13 thousand years ago their distinct culture suddenly disappeared. North American archaeological evidence shows little to no human evidence for hundreds of years after the Clovis era.

Most scholars believe that the Clovis people came to North America from Asia. However, no one has found artifacts in Asia that resemble the Clovis culture.

A unique technology for the production of tools appeared in the New World suddenly, together with the newly arrived peoples of the Clovis culture. In an effort to explain the mystery of the Clovis culture, scientists tried to find a similar technology, and found it in Europe. It resembles the technology of the Solutre culture, which was widespread in Europe during the early Clovis culture. Klovisky instruments were spear-shaped. The Solutrean and Klovsky points are in many ways similar: they are thin and two-sided, the technique of overlapping peeling was used for its production, reducing the thickness without reducing the width.

In connection with this issue, a number of researchers, for example, F. Hibben (in the thirties and forties), A. Dzhelinek (1971), A. L. Mongait (1973), B. Bradley, D. Meltzer, D Stanford (in 1998), expressed a hypothesis about the possible participation of Western European cultures of the Upper Paleolithic in the settlement of the New World. The hypothesis suggests that people from Europe could move to North America, following the ice edge between Europe and America. D. Stanford looked for traces of the forerunner of Clovis culture where they should have been – in Alaska and Chukotka. And did not find them. And the Siberian and Alaskan stone tools are not at all similar to the Clovis ones found outside of Alaska.

The Klovisky culture in North America is dated back to 12—10.5 thousand BC. Although there are finds dating back to about 18—13 thousand BC. Objects of this culture have been found in many places in the United States and Mexico.

Although the population density in the Paleolithic, according to scientists, was 5 people per 100 square kilometers, in North America there were at least 500 thousand people, in Britain and France – 30 thousand people. Their main occupation was hunting and gathering. In total, there are more than 125 species of plants and animals used by people of the Clovis culture. According to the results of statistical processing of data on the number of finds of tools of the «Clovis» culture, one can speak of their high concentration in the eastern part of North America.

Solutrean culture is an archaeological culture of the Paleolithic common in France, Spain, Portugal. In Northern France, Belgium and England, there are monuments close to the early phase of the Solutrean culture. In a number of Late Paleolithic sites in Central Europe and the European part of Russia, some features of similarity with the Solutrean culture were found.


Solutrean culture


Solutreian industry refers to the period between the development of the Gravette and Madeleine cultures and partly exists in parallel with them. Dating back to 23—18, 21—16 or 18—15 thousand BC. It is characterized by carefully crafted flint-shaped tips in the form of a laurel or willow leaf, treated with perfect pressing retouching, as well as with a notch. The method of wring-out retouching originated earlier, but reached its peak in the Solutrean era. Pressing retouching made it possible to produce arrowheads and spearheads that were as thin as the later iron arrowheads of the same size. They were light enough to be used for throwing weapons. Together with them, they find flint scrapers, incisors, punctures, points, and bone tips, needles with ears, wands, and works of art. Thus, the «tips of solutre» are traditionally considered to be a symbol of technical achievements in the Paleolithic, the pinnacle of the art of stone processing, unattainable in subsequent cultures of the Madeleine era.


Madeleine products


A variant of Solutrean culture is the Himaldi culture – the south of France and the north of Italy. Chronologically, it existed simultaneously with the Madeleine culture, but flint-like products resemble the products of the gravetta culture.

There are different views on the question of the origin of the Solutrean culture. The Solutrean culture is considered as a stage in the development of Western European cultures of the Stone Age, which arose on a local basis. Some scholars believed that it appeared from the east, from the area of the Selet culture, as evidence of which they cited the similarity of the leaf-shaped tips typical of both cultures.


Products of the Selet culture


In the early Paleolithic, one of the European population groups that lived in Germany and Eastern Europe used Solutrean-type arrowheads, the prototypes of which are known in local cultures. In Western Europe, the Solutrean technique was not then used. Then the proto-Lutreans were replaced by the people of the Aurignacian culture. In layer 2, Kostenok 1, a change of the proto-Lutreian culture to the sites of the Middle West European Aurignacian is noted.
