definitely possible and im open to it, anecdotally ive noticed places like this in this area tend to get a little cagey about rewriting ancient history because if it turns out their civ was started by another rival group its not a great look. theres some tombs they wont “test”.

when i was going the hardest into east asian art history a guy told me (i cant remember if i have the people groups switched here) japan has some ancient ruler tombs they dont want people poking into because some suspect the early rulers were korean, or its the other way around.
i need to reread ecclesiastes through the lens of what it says specifically about empires and potential civilizations falling and being forgotten
people intrigued by all this may also want to check out those ancient chinese mummies. i think offhand they found them in the taklamakan desert. just throwing some stuff out there in case people want to do some informational digging themselves.
