The theory of Early Kuduk Migration was met with some controversy and debate within the archaeological community when it was first introduced. However, as more research and evidence has been presented in support of the theory, it has gained widespread acceptance among archaeologists as the prevailing explanation for the ancient Kuduk people's movements. The majority of the evidence in favor of the migration theory comes from archaeological sources, including artifacts, structures, and other physical remains. These remains provide clues about the way of life, technology, and movements of the ancient Kuduk people, which support the theory of early migration.
Evidence in favor of the migration mostly comes from archaeological sources. The works of Tegu Yeva (1948 and 1952) have acted as the foundation for the hypothesis since its inception, and the research of Alan Ghoa (1983, 1986, and 1990) which solidified the theory’s status as the accepted status quo. ▼

Yeva’s first archaeological collection, ''The Way of Life'' (1948), explores concepts of archaeology with reference to the Early Kuduk Peoples. Although the book does not directly address the theory of the Early Kuduk Migrations, the text introduces it in a positive light. ''The Way of Life'' was considered quite controversial and harshly debated over in the archaeological community. It wouldn’t be until 1952 that Yeva would publish her second book, ''The Theory of Early Migration'', which directly addresses the topic. She provides her own research, as well as research and work from peers such as Dai Yamáat, Chatatunga Tumbinai, and Máa Kotoa, that argue in favor of the Early Migration theory.
Archaeologists point to the similarities in the material culture, such as pottery, tools, and other artifacts, across different Kuduk settlements to suggest that the ancient Kuduk people shared a common origin and culture. Other evidence such as similarities in architectural styles, the layout of buildings, and the construction techniques used have also been observed across different Kuduk settlements. This suggests that the ancient Kuduk people had a shared heritage and that they migrated from one location to another. The discovery of ancient trade routes and the presence of foreign artifacts in Kuduk settlements support the theory of migration. This suggests that the ancient Kuduk people had contact with other cultures and regions, and that they may have migrated to new settlements in search of resources or to establish trade connections.
All these pieces of evidence combined with Tegu Yeva and Alan Ghoa's research provide a strong argument for the theory of Early Kuduk Migration. It's important to note that despite the evidence provided, the theory is not universally accepted and alternative theories have been proposed to explain the ancient Kuduk people's movements. However, the majority of archaeologist are in agreement and accept that the theory is the most likely explanation based on the available evidence.
