Razni Podaci o Srbima

Važni podaci o Srbima sačuvani su u delu Masudija koji je umro sredinom desetog veka. Njegovi podaci potiču iz osmog veka. Na jednom mestu Masudi piše: "Sloveni su od potomaka Madaja sina Jefeta, sina Nuha. Njemu pripadaju sva plemena Slovena i njemu se priklanjaju u svojim rodoslovima. Obitavališta su im pod Kozorogom (na severu), odakle se prostiru na zapad. Oni okupljaju različita plemena, među kojima ima ratničkih i oni imaju vladare. Neki od njih već ispovedaju hrišćansku veru na jakobitski način, neki nemaju pisma, ne potčinjavaju se zakonima... Pleme pod imenom Sarbin spaljuje se na ognju, kada im umre vladar ili starešina, oni takođe spaljuju njegovog jahaćeg konja. Oni imaju običaj, sličan običajima Indusa. To slovensko pleme i druga bliže se istoku i prostiru se na zapad." Ovaj podatak nalazimo i kod Ibrahima ibn Jakuba koji u svom jednom rukopisu kaže: "Pleme koje spomenusmo, što se naziva Sernin /S(a)rbin/, spaljuje se u ognju, kada im umre vođa i spaljuju svoje jahaće konje. Njihov postupak je (u tom pogledu) sličan postupanju Indusa." Arapski pisci opširnije opisuju pogreb Rusa, a u tim opisima ima zanimljivih podataka i o sahranjivanju Srba. Početkom desetog veka Ibn Rusteh i Ibn Fadlan beleže da obične smrtnike spaljuju u čamcu, a moćni knez spaljuje se u lađi. Opet spaljivanje kao u Indiji.

SerbsofIndia Russian author Moroskin writes in his book “Istoricko - kriteceskija izsledovnija o Rusah i Slovijanah”, page 163-173: “From the Himalayas to the Hidukushki mountains lived the Serbian peoples, under the name Syemskrita, or Serbs”. The writer states that the local inhabitants had been mesmerised and respected highly the Syemba or Serba, who resided in this region called Dunayski. Inside India, the main countries of the Serbs were Praziya, Gangaria, and the great Sabarska. Another Serb country based on the coast of India was called Panonska or Panonia. Moroskin states that the Serb kingdom in India was regarded as the highest level of might, multi-spectrums of education and enlightenment. In the book of “Laws of Manu” we can find number references to Moroskins writing. Paragraph 21 states: “That (country) which (lies) between the Himavat and the Vindhya (Vinds, Vends or Wendi, as one of names the Germans call the Serbs) mountains to the east of Prayaga and to the west of Vinasana (the place were the river Sarasvati disappears) is called Madhyadesa (the central region)”. In paragraph 22 the Manu goes on to explain: “But (the tract) between those two mountains (just mentioned), which (extends) as far as the eastern and western oceans, the wise call Aryavarta (the country of Aryans)”. It is generally regarded that the Serbian name Mane, used in Dalmatia and Lika, is derived from Manu -the learned one. In connection to the evidence that Serbs lived in Asia (India), there is further proof. At the time of Syu-An-Di’s Dynasty 147-167 B.C., Chinese chronicles document the following: Phan Sey, governor of Yuy Djey writes that the Serbs have some ten thousand cavalry; they have constantly attacked our borders, killing high ranking officials; their

insolents has reached the highest peak. The first year of Janj-Guana‘s rule the Serbs attacked again, grabbing the provinces of Yanmin and Thayuyan. Lord Duan In, known for his experience in war and one of Chinese great generals writes: “From the time that the Huns had run away, Serbs have gained might and have taken back their lands. They have over 100 000 soldiers, they are known everywhere for their bodily might, never surrendering when loosing. To this add that discipline at our borders has fallen and that the enemy has access to our lands. They demand the gold and the best metal. Our fallen men have joined their ranks and are used as advisors against us”. Other Chinese generals, such as Hya Yuy and Thyan Yan, writing on the situation of Duan In add: “Serbian tribes are mightier and larger then before. Two years have passed and still we cannot think of a way to destroy them. We are lacking success. If this extends, we have no alternative but to burden the country for conscription of soldiers”. Serbian emperor at that time was Tancha, after him Ranko. Tancha had 5 sons, who divided, weakening the kingdom. Tancha ruled 200 regions in India and China.

Map outlining the Serbia homeland range in India It is very clear that the Serbs still hold India with a blurred kind of nostalgia close to their hearts, and that India plays a role of past remembrance within Serbian poetry. The fact that we have a clear connection between Manus and Arians with the Vedas cannot in any way be a coincidence, as it is unlikely that the European Vends (Vedas), who hold India so dear to their souls, are not connected to any of the above. Who else from today’s Europe has claimed such a past (in history, religion and language and ties in tradition) without force upon the nation of India? Immigration of Serbs lasted over 10.000 years in periodic waves, depending on the circumstances. Here is an old pre-historic Serbian poem which seems to explain one of the reasons why Serbs emigrated from India: Damned India. How could I not weep tears, When I’m leaving the Land of India, India land of the cursed? In India the law is scorn … Godfathers take each other to courts…” Brother sleeps with brother’s wife. Not a drop of rain from the sky, No quite morning dunes to cry, No wine or wheat to be born, For honourable bread for the temple. Vast time is three years,

Black earth cracks from the Sun, In her live men fall, To which God let’s loose sickness of horror, Painful sickness and horror Which has slain the old and young? Other references to India in Serbian poetry include such titles as: Upon the sea to India floats a shajkaca, A stitch has sewn India girl (not the same as Rosa slave girl), Land of India and so on. A stitch has sewn Rosa slave girl. A stitch has sewn Rosa the slave girl, Stitch she sew, on to the sea she looked, Two black ravens she watched. Rosa the slave girl spoke: Oh God two black ravens, Are you travelling from the land of India, Had you seen my old mother? Has she married my brothers? Has my sister widowed’ Has my mother taken my gifts. One had croaked the other spoke: We are from the land of India. We have seen your mother who’s old: Your brothers she has married, And your sister a widow has become, But your gifts she has not given, Old mother sits alone and quiet, Fumbling with your White gifts, Oh dear, two black ravens! Go to the Land of India. And tell my old mother, To share my gifts and to save To give the ill and blind, Slave Rosa closed her eyes. Blind she threw herself to the sea. Children of India. Od stabla tvoga i mi smo grana, (From your tree, a branch are we) I mi smo deca Hindustana. (We are too, children of Hidustan)

Ti Srbe ne znas, a mi te znamo. (You do not know of Serbs, we know of you) O tebi mislimo, tebi pevamo.
