1. Colonel Tod believes that the religion of Siva was spread abroad at a very early age, before the Phoenecians came in with their Baal worship. Recent discoveries have confirmed Colonel Tod.

  It has been discovered that Indian teak was used for bulding purposes in Babylon, and Indian Muslin was known there and called Sindu, the early name for India.

  Another singularly able orientalists Mr. Paterson wrote that in the Asiatic researches, "the doctrine of Sivas seem to have extended themselves over the greatest portion of Mankind. They spread amongst remote nations who were ignorant of the origin and meaning of the rites they adopted; and the ignorance may be considered as the cause of the mixure and confusion of images and ideas which characterised the Mythology of ancient Greeks and Romans".

  Siva in his creative power became Zeus triopthalmos the three eyed (a special characteristic of Siva) Jupiter and Osiris......Prof Maspero shows a curious point of conduct between the worshippers of Baal in Syria and the worshipper of Siva......when Saivaism went abroad on its strange missionary career, this bull worship was very prominent. We must all differ to an Indian authority as shrewed as Colenel Tod. He hold that this bull worship was the strongest evidence in Palastine, Egypt etc. of Sivan Derivation. - Indian Primitive Christianity - Arthur Lillie.
