جم جي شيفر Jim G. Shaffer
قديم آثارن جو آمريڪي ماهر جم جي شيفر سنڌو ماٿري جي سڀيتا جي زوال پٺيان آرين جي حملي واري مفروضي کي رد ڪندڙ ماهرن ۾ شامل رهيو آهي. آمريڪا جي ڪيس ويسٽرن رزرو يونيورسٽي Case Western Reserve University ۾ اينٿروپلاجي جي ماهر جم جي شيفر جو جنم 1944ع ۾ ٿيو، پاڻ اريزونا اسٽيٽ يونيورسٽي Arizona State University مان اينٿروپلاجي جي شعبي ۾ 1965ع ۾ بي اي ۽ 1967ع ۾ ايم اي جي ڊگري حاصل ڪئي. جڏهن ته يونيورسٽي آف وسڪونسن ميڊسن مان ساڳي شعبي ۾ ڊاڪٽريٽ جي ڊگري حاصل ڪئي. ڊاڪٽريٽ جي ڊگري حاصل ڪرڻ بعد پاڻ سنڌو ماٿري جي سڀيتا تي تحقيق سان واڳيل رهيو آهي. هن کوجنا بعد اهو ثابت ڪيو ته سنڌو ماٿري جي سڀيتا تي يورپي نسل جي آرين جو ڪوبه حملو نه ٿيو هو. جم موجب سنڌو ماٿري جي سڀيتا جي ترقي يا زوال سان آرين جو ڪوبه تعلق نه رهيو آهي. نه وري آرين جي اتر اولهه انڊيا طرف ڪا لڏپلاڻ ٿي هئي.
