The Ancient Indian Civilisation is Older Than Even Ancient Egypt!

There is no dispute among the archeologists about the gradual decline of the Indus Valley civilization. Firstly, as per the successive excavations made at the Indus Valley sites, the civilization flourished about 9,000 BCE or even much before - not just 2,500 BCE. Secondly, it existed over a vast territory stretching as far as present day Iran and Afghanistan on the West and South-West and Himalayas in the North and touching the Arabic Ocean. There existed a mighty ancient Indian river praised and celebrated in the ancient Indian texts as 'Saraswathi river' existed. It slowly changed course and disappeared. All about 980 Indus Valley civilizations locations were located on either side of that river. When the mighty river changed course/disappared, the Civilization slowly moved Eastward into the Gangetic plains. This was the truth. Indus Valley Civilization lives in each and every village in India!

Recently someone mentioned that the floods in Pakistan didn't impact these relics as the drainage system still worked well..

The Indian culture SW Asia, is an ancient one with a rich spiritual history.

Civilizations rise and fall, and , if we are not careful, even this present one that we live in , could fall and go under the sands of history !!

The shear number of Indian temples and archaeological sites is amazing. They may have more than the rest of the world combined.

Flush toilets in every home, 5000 years back with unmatched drainage system and sceptic tanks!! That's so remarkable...

Better than Dubai ! I mean they had a sewage system !

Indus valley civilization is still alive in India 🇮🇳 It will always be alive ❤🕉️🙏

That was a Hindu civilization😊

The original name of Indus is Sindhu. 7 rivers of Sapta Sindhu area were, Sindhu, Saraswati,, Sutudri (Now Sutlej) Parusni (Ravi), Asikni ( Chenab) Vitasta(Jhelum) and Vipas (Beas). For some reason in the Persian civilization language the area was called 'Hapta Hindu' that is how people living in the area were called Hindu. Chinese and Japanese people call us 'Indu' after Sindhu.😊

Fun fact- Indus valley civilisation is more than 3 times of the ancient Egypt civilisation that built pyramids and ofcourse more advanced for that time with well engineered city planning.

Recently a city some 5 kilometres square has been found in India by a German and French Archeology. They estimate the city to be some 27 thousand years old.

It is originally called as Sindhu ghati sabhyata (सिंधु घाटी सभ्यता)

VARANASI IS WORLD OLDEST LIVING CITY N INDIAN CIVILISATION IS WORLD OLDEST LIVING CIVILISATION

If Dwarka is real then it is the oldest. Marine scientists say archaeological remains discovered 36 metres (120 feet) underwater in the Gulf of Cambay off the western coast of India could be over 9,000 years old. Debris recovered from the Dwarka site - including construction material, pottery, sections of walls, beads, sculpture and human bones and teeth has been carbon dated and found to be nearly 9,500 years old. Author and film-maker Graham Hancock - who has written extensively on the uncovering of ancient civilisations - told BBC News Online that the evidence was compelling: "There's a huge chronological problem in this discovery. It means that the whole model of the origins of civilisation with which archaeologists have been working will have to be remade from scratch," he said. it is believed that the area was submerged as ice caps melted at the end of the last ice age 9-10,000 years ago. Dwarka was supposed to have been built on six blocks, two on the right bank and four on the left. All the six sectors have protective walls built of dressed stones of sandstones. Whatever has been traced so far conforms to the description of Dwarka in the Mahabharat to a large extent. For example, the enclosures may correspond to the Antahpurs (harems) of the texts. Similarly, the large number of stone anchors is indicative of overseas trade. The large ships were anchored to the sea, whereas the small ones were near to the warehouses on the Gomati, part of which has been submerged. Marine archaeology has proved that the existence of the Dwarka and its submergence in the IInd millennium B.C referred to in the Mahabharat, Harivamsa, Matsya and Vayu Purans (Sanskrit texts) is a fact and not fiction. The city of Dwarka has been investigated by historians since the beginning of the 20th century. Also the exact location of this port city has also been debated for a long time. Several references from the Mahabharata, the Bhagvata Purana and the Vishnu Purana have been used to suggest the city’s exact location

I'm proud to be the Part of these Great Country ❤that's my pride.. Jai Hindi ❤

Indus valley civilization is a modern day India❤

Our golden history

Come to India. You are most welcome. 🙏

It was a 200 years long draught due to climate change that led to the gradual disappearance of the civilisation. The draughts made large scale agricultural unsustainable, the food supply to the city stopped , trade became impossible. So, the citizens gradually started moving out of the city towards nearby areas and settled in small towns and villages but they carried with them the same culture, traditions that still found among Indians today. Indians still worship Pasupati(Shiva), Yoni(Kamakhya temple), nature and animal worshipping( cow, bull), yoga etc…
