As per The holy Bible, the creation of mankind was done in the east. The place might have refereed as PARADISE ON EARTH.
" And Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed ( Genesis 2.8)
One of the earliest civilisation found in India in its Punjab region ( both Punjab east and west) viz. the Indus Valley Civilisation dated back to 3000-5000 B.C.But in Kashmir area archaeological traces are found date back 50000 years.
The name Kashmir might have derived from Sanskrit Kashmira; Kashmiri, Kashir and there may be three more different ways :
01 Cush( Kosh) the grandson of Noah,( believed to be tenth descendent of Adam) whose descendants populated the earth had settled on this fertile land on earth.Thus Cush of Bible might have changed into 'Kash' and the word 'Mir' means in Russian as place occupied by a community is the reason of becoming the name of Kashmir.
02.Another interpretation on Hebrew word 'Kasher' ( in English 'Kosher) related with food. And Israelis are known for their separate dietary regulation had gave this name who came to settle in this part of earth.
03. The Sanskrit meaning of Kashmir might have come from 'Kashyap' the recluse, and 'Mir' came from 'Mar'. The Vedic text says the name of creator also Kashyap,so, the Kash-mar or Kashmir practically means the 'Land of God".
According to many historians and archaeologist, this part of land was originally inhabited by Israelis (Hebrews) from beginning.According to A Barnes, the father of Ermiah was the father of Afghans, who was contemporary of Nebuchadnezzar and the Afghan legend of Nebuchadnezzar confirms Israelite were transplanted from the holy land of Ghore in north western Kabul Province.They remained Jews in faith till 682 AD, when the invader Arabs converted them to Islam.There are many signage and inscriptions in Hebrew found in Kashmir of India.Quite close to Taxila,now in Sirkhap, Pakistan a stone was found having inscription in Aramaic, the language Lord Jesus Christ spoke.There are many more inscriptions are found in POK ( Pakistan Occupied Kashmir) confirms the presence of Israelis in Kashmir long before Hindu and Islamic era.
For immediate interest of my readers I inscribe below some common words spoken and name of places in Kashmir which have similarity with those words refereed in holy Bible :

Inhabitants of Kashmir are not like other communities or races of India in every respect. There life, behaviour, customs , habits , food are very much similar of Israelis.
a) Kashmiri people do not use fat for cooking and baking like Israelis; they use only oil.
b) Kashmiri people like boiled fish called 'fari' like Israelis. They probably remember their forefathers used to have plenty of fish long back before their exodus from Egypt. It is mentioned in (Numbers 11:5) " We remember the fish which we dis eat in Egypt freely"
c) Butcher knives are made in Kashmir in half moon shape like Israelis.
d) Rudders of Boat or Shikara are made heart shaped same as Israelis do.
e) After bearing a child Kashmiri mother are quarantined for forty days for purification which is same way followed in Israel.
f) Apparels for Kashmiri women are similar to Israelis. Both wear headscarves and laces.
g) Young Kashmiri and Jewish girls dance alike in two facing columns with linked arm moving forward and backward with rhythm.Both calls their song as 'rof'
h) Old Kashmiri graves are found in east -west orientation although in Islam graves are dug in north south orientation. Old graves are found with Hebrew inscriptions.
All that above proves that the Kashmir was the place where Hebrews were inhibited densely many many years ago. The place was considered from days of immortal that Paradise on Earth.It is the Garden of Eden as described in holy Bible.The next verse will tell the geographical location of garden of Eden.
" And the river went out of Eden to water the garden ; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads" ( Genesis 2:10)
And everyone knows the river Indus started from Kashmir with its tributaries Sutlej, Jheelam, Chenab. ( Source : Courtesy : Holger Kersten author of Jesus lived in India))
