When the Aryans arrived in the Indus Valley around 1500 BCE, they brought with them a new social structure and religious practices that significantly transformed the region. The Aryans introduced a Caste System that stratified society into distinct classes, which replaced the more egalitarian social structures of the Indus Valley civilization. Additionally, their religious beliefs, centered around Vedic texts and rituals, supplanted the indigenous beliefs, leading to the emergence of Hinduism as a dominant faith in the region. This shift not only altered religious practices but also redefined social relationships and hierarchies within the community.
the origin of Hinduism is not yet known. it might have started during the indus valley civilization or by the aryans.
