The Maruts and the Windsocks

Maruts are important Vedic deities. They are attendants of Indra. In some depictions they appear to be flying on some sort of dragon. They are shown covered in gold and use gold weapons. Menumorut, which could mean Meant Marut in sanskrit, was one of the kings mentioned by the Hungarians (Magyars, Magars) as opposing the conquest of some Romanian territory.

To this day name of god Indra is kept in Romanian language in the word "îndrăzneț" (Sanskrit indrasvat) which means daring. Here is god Varuna, also shown as a fighter riding a flying dragon with the head of a wolf.
Dacian Draco, with the head of a wolf and body of a serpent was an ensign of the troops of Dacia, apparently taken over by the Romans after the conquest of Dacia for gold. It shows on the column and also in other places of the empire, after. It is said the Dacian Draco was hollow and making a terrifying sound when the wind was blowing through it.
In aviation, a windsock is a very useful instrument. Installed at landing fields in remote places with no information on the speed and direction of wind, just by looking at it, a pilot can figure direction and speed of the wind at ground level.
My idea was. Could it be Dacian Draco a remnant of another era, with civilizations that clashed and destroyed each other. It is not  the only historic sign that show that was the case. Especially in Hindu mythology, also Romanian folklore myths many deities are shown as flying, and flying devices are shown as well. Or could it had been used just to figure the wind's direction and strength for adjusting aim when using bows and arrows.

Of the ancient flying devices, the Vimanas which i think they may have been misinterpreted. Rukma vimanas could be actually a cross section through a delta wing plane, with two (turbo!) jet engines and weapons.
Indo European migration according to current theories which try to explain the closeness of Indian languages with European ones with Sanskrit being the common denominator, started north of the Black Sea, real close to where Dacia was (west of Black Sea). Dacia, roughly present day Romania had, still has some of the greatest gold reserves in Eurasia and the world. I suspect they are currently being exploited using autonomous mole like devices that travel underground in the richest areas, with an entrance for personnel hidden by an old salina turned into a tourist attraction, at the end of one of the few freeways in Romania.
