The mutation that causes the stereotypical Mongoloid appearance is a relatively recent one. It's only about 14,000 years old and originated in present day China. The original Asian population at that time probably looked more like the Ainu of Northern Japan. The American Indian groups who arrived in the earliest migrations to the New World also look like the original Asian population. (More recent arrivals, like the Inuit or the Navajo, left Asia after the emergence of the mutation and thus share a similar appearance.)

Again, the Asian term is wrong. Preferably use the term Oriental. I've also decided to stop using the terms Asia and Europe in favour of saying the Eurasian landmass. the entire swathe of land from Ireland to India (and through India to South East Asia) and including Africa north of the Sahara have always been ONE large chequerboard. The Orientals were separated by Siberia and the Gobi and hte Himalayas and the Negroids by the Sahara.
The Indo-Europeans seem to have been a group that emanated out of Northern India/Persia. Why? Because the Egyptians even in the time of the Pyramid builders did not have wheels. On the other hand, the Harappans seem to have invented the wheel and this moved to Sumeria. The aryans were known as charioteers, so they must have emanated out of India with their wheels and spread this technology to Sumeria and then established an Empire in Anatolia. The wheel then came into use in Egypt.
