Andites

The Andites were the best all-round human stock to appear on Urantia since the days of Adamites; most skillful and sagacious militarists ever to live on Urantia 78:4.3-6 80:4.3

The Andites were a great people, but the crucial factor in determining the course of their civilization was the increasing aridity of Iran, Turkestan, and Sinkiang, which forced them to invent and adopt new and advanced methods of wresting a livelihood from their decreasingly fertile lands. 81:6.4

In the Urantia Book

They drove Andonites out of Europe (80:9.6-7)

• It was the violet race and their Andite successors who first attempted to divorce the mathematical from the volitional. 103:6.10
• These early Andites were not Aryan; they were pre-Aryan. They were not white; they were pre-white. They were neither an Occidental nor an Oriental people. But it is Andite inheritance that gives to the polyglot mixture of the so-called white races that generalized homogeneity which has been called Caucasoid. 78:4.4

• There is real danger in the combination of restlessness, curiosity, adventure, and pleasure-abandon characteristic of the post-Andite races. 84:8.4

Origin

• this race began with the 1570 sons and daughters that Adam impregnated in a group of Nodite women coordinated by Eve 76:4.8
• the term Andite is used to designate those peoples whose racial inheritance was from one-eighth to one-sixth violet. 78:4.1

• They embraced most of the highest types of the surviving remnants of the Adamite and Nodite races and, later, some of the best strains of the yellow, blue, and green men. 77:3.9 78:0.1-2 78:4.1-4
