I'm a graduate engineer trying to study the world. It's history, geography, science, literature.. chapter everything. Thanks to Mohak for gifting such beautiful videos.
As far as I could read up, apparently, the collapse of the Indus Valley Civilization was because of the change in global weather around 4200 years ago, which shifted the Indian monsoons further to the southeast, which ended up reducing the irrigation ability of the Indus river, thereby expanding the size of the Thar Desert. Thus, faced with reduced agricultural yields, the residents moved further east and southeast, eventually settling at the Gangetic plains. This event is known as the "4.2 kiloyear BP aridification event", which is also one of the reasons why the Egyptian civilization shrank massively in size, and the Mesopotamian civilization withdrew to the northern and southern ends of the Tigris-Euphrates river systems.
@@mainakguha732 Proof of the religious practices of the Indus Valley Civilization is always going to be difficult because there is no "Rosetta Stone" that could help in deciphering the language of the Indus Valley Civilization. Even the religion of Egypt was mysteriously vague until the Rosetta Stone was discovered, which gave the ability to read Hieroglyphs, which explained the significance of all the Gods in the Egyptian religion. Until such a Rosetta Stone is discovered, the actual religious and cultural practices will always be under speculation. However, there is indeed legit proof of the "4.2 kiloyear BP aridification event", from the studies of climate change over the centuries. Scientists have even said that this aridification event is part of a 5k-10k year cycle of inversion of the North African monsoons and that within the next 10,000 years, the Sahara desert would see copious amounts of monsoons and turn back into a lush and productive region that it had been during the starting stages of the Egyptian and Mesopotamian Civilizations.
@@prabhatsourya3883 Thank you for the educational answer. I have some knowledge about the factors you discussed. But the proof I wanted was about the Indus Valley people being Shaivaites, for which no concrete proof currently exists.

This reminds me of a Sanskrit shloka that I read which nostalgically talks about a golden era when, न राज्यं न च राजासीत् न दण्ड्यो न च दाण्डिकः। धर्मेणैव प्रजा: सर्वा रक्षन्ति स्म परस्परम् ॥ There was neither a kingdom, nor a king. Neither someone punished, nor a punisher. By Dharma alone all the citizens protected each other.

I like how subconsciously the Indian civilization had ended up retaining peace and non violence during independence and even to this day has no first attack/strike policy. It is also generally considered a peaceful partner across the globe by several countries and has the best international diplomacy barring Pakistan (and still holds the largest trade with China)
Really look up the reality bro. Most of the villages in indus valley have been found to contain burn marks which means they were raided and burned. Secondly various weapons graves(possible massacre sites) were also found. It is not that indus valley was pretty peaceful. It is because that neither india nor pakistan have conducted thorough archaelogical research over them
Agree with that, but biologically it also depends on the factors they grew up in that affected their testosterone amounts. Lower testosterone has been shown to result in less agression.
This is one of your best videos. I always thought the topic of Indus valley is overexplored and we can't get anything more out of it unless we decipher the script. But dude your way of looking at things fascinate me. What a beautiful time would it be to be alive in that ancient yet modern civilization. Thanks Mohak❤😊

Loved this video Mohak. It cleared up many of the aspects of the Indus Valley Civilization to me, more so than what I read in school about it. However, I would like to add that Indus Valley Civilization did have clear evidence of violence too. Indus Valley Civilization was invaded by the Achaemenid Empire of Iran. This is mentioned in the Behistun inscription of Iran, and there are many sculptures of ancient Iran in which Indus Valley people are shown giving tributes to Iran as well. So, there was violence in Indus Valley for sure, but it wasn't a violence-based or invasion-based society. They were good within their boundaries and didn't care about expanding.
I’m a sindhi & my grandmother used to tell me so many stories about sindh. She told me that her ancestors for living there for thousands of years. She said that her family was living in the same place for roughly 1200 years before they were forced to run away during partition
@@TheAlternatePers indus valley langauge was dravidian langauge family .. sindhi is an indo aryan langauge family .. which is indicated that you (your ancestor) were migrated after declined civilization....
@mra3470 History comes from proper evidence. We don't know what IVC people called themselves. Their language is also unknown. I don't know why you said Tamil. You said Sindh people come from lineage of IVC. Can you show evidence for it? I think you are just blabbering without evidence.
As a Sindhi watching from Sindh I must congratulate you on making such detailed and wonderful video. Mohenjo-Daro was so advanced that even after 5000 years the city was able to drain out disasterous torrential storm of 2022. (To know about the intensity of the storm: It rained for many days without pause and 100% of "kacha makaans" were destroyed in whole district)
Has no Indian Archeologist or Expert done any study on Indus Valley? This guy only mentions names of Archeologicist & Historians from the US/ Western countries .
You explained the whole research on IVC perfectly. I personally am very much fascinated by this civilization and somewhere I believe that this was indeed a very unique civilization. Rest will be unraveled through the further researches.
As a upsc cse aspirant & as history wasmy optionalsubject , I studied IVC From Teachers & from many books by thinkers , Archeologists & from my teacher who is an Indologist studied Indian History I was so happy to see a video being made on IVC from a youtuber like Mohak Bhaiii , it's time to learn about IVC by every Indian. 😊👍😍

In a nutshell , we can clearly say Indus Valley was far better and and more developed than today’s most of developing and some developed countries . We need to learn something from our ancestors rather than communalising history .
History is my favorite subject and bhaiyya I always wait for your videos. These history videos help me to gain more extra knowledge except of curriculum books. love you bhai
Very nice video. Maybe in the future you can talk about further mysteries about the civilization's demise, the nature of it: it is said in the later stages of decline the cities were still in use, but the urban planning was horrendous, buildings appeared to be constructed with no sense of planning, something which wasn't seen before in the mature harappan phase, the one where development was at its peak. People seem to have just buried their jewellery as if in anticipation of future return! Tools were left as if the workers suddenly decided to take a break but they never came back! Then the probable disappearance of the Indus Valley people to the south of the peninsula and arrival of the Steppe peoples would be an interesting historical topic too. There is so much to explore and as people learn more about this and there is more limelight on this beautiful topic, the government may ramp up the efforts to excavate evidence.
So, Basically all the elites, specially traders, architechts, and people who had advance knowledge of their craft and agriculture left and formed empire called Mithanni, spear headed by Mithada people of IVC, Mitha ( meaning salt ), basically traders from salt or coastal region. Later Vedic God Mitra came from them, the god of language and diplomacy. Those IVC people mated with steppes there, and created a tribe called Aryan, name of which was derived from Hurrian, the language of IVC, especially Harappans. After Mithanni fell, Assyrians mass deported population, although Aryan elites migrated to Europe and dispersed there, commoners Aryan came back and settled in hilly regions of Afghanistan. With their advances knowledge of agriculture purely based on rain, they didn't need to live in large settlements near river. Various villages formed in surrounding areas Afghanistan, Pakistan, Hariyana, Punjab...region came to be known as Aryavarta. Those elites Aryan from Europe sailed to India later and transformed archaic, Ritualistic Vedic Sanskrit in to classical and philosophical form and unleashed Dharma on subcontinent and south east Asia.
Those jewels were most likely left there during floods, or more likely ceremonially left for dead people to use in the afterlife. Stepp migration itself shows no evidence of violence, which means they still prob fought but no conquest like we are taught. Besides, both early Vedic period and late IVC period are cultural continuums, so the same people who built IVC became semi-nomadic after fall of IVC and wrote the vedas (but obviously with stepp people coming from north and Austroasiatics coming from east in as well)
@@zuesmaya8167 There's not much evidence of frequent flooding to warrant that claim of burying jewellery, nor were the mentioned jewels found in burial sites. So, that's why it's mysterious. And I'm not sure if IVC people wrote the Vedas or at least the earliest Vedas because the Rig Veda culture shows similarity to the Sintashta Culture, which is a late Bronze Age culture above Afghanistan whose people are from the Steppes.

@@zarrinqalam3298 Brother there was no country known as india before 1947. Learn difference between a region and a country. Asia once was also not a continent, in old times a large chunk of land known as pangea combining asia, africa and other lands existed. So everything thats in asia right now shouldn't be called asian. Broaden your brain. If you wanna claim indus, then try to visit it without visa. You'll need Pakistani visa. Indus valley is Pakistan and when india claims it, it looks stupid.
A good, prosperous region would definitely attract warring nomads, looters and other expansionist kingdoms ..so is the pattern observed throughout the history...they would have needed some sort of protection, fortification, law and order...a society cannot survive without these basic needs.
@@herambpatkar you're right and you have to look at the population numbers, this is still tribal and pastoral society in surrounding region they are not in great numbers, agriculture is still very primitive so people have still not settlled much plus the biggest shelter is from the hindu kush, you can enter the north west from only two passes which are treacherous treads, in north you have the himalaya east are forested and south is sea, so pretty safe from warring tribes but what you said will eventually happen as aryan migration happens
@uncle20help84 I agree...I was looking at it from an iron age perspective. We need to consider the fact that this was the bronze age...they were naturally protected from all side...large scale invasion, conquest happened in the world only after the invention of horse driven charriots, use of horses from central Eurasia and usage of stronger weapons made from iron!!
@@herambpatkar yes but we are looking only at external threats, internal threats are also prevalent in any society which basically creeps up due to inequalities, but if there are close to none then society will be peaceful, ultimately its all about resources and their optimal distribution which harappans would have done the best and egyptians and mesopotamians couldn't, i think it boil downs to philosophy of the society too, mohak said we ran a heterarchy system and the other two civilizations were hierarchical, that could be an important factor too, don't you think?
10:15 this seal may depict that the bull was used in agriculture to plough lands. 1.The extreme left symbol can be the agricultural plot 2.the extreme right symbol can be the wheel of a cart. 3.The symbol to the left of the cart looks like some irrigation channels? The vertical line at the top is the main source of water and the horizontal lines in the rectangle are channels? 4. The symbol next to the extreme left, looks like a plough? (it's called नांगर in marathi) 5. The middle symbol is unclear. Does the trident above are roots of crops? Ropes used to tie the bulls to the cart? Or maybe am just interpreting this one for the sake of it.
The charm of the Indus Valley script is that it looks obviously pictorial, but statistical analysis shows that it is alphabetical, meaning "abcd...." not "plough, bull, wheel, cart....". This has been looked into through a century by people who are really well educated and resourceful - linguists, archaeologists, computer scientists, computational linguists, historians and so on. I made the same assumption as you - that it's obviously pictorial, but then went and googled the amount of research done on it. Look it up. Really intelligent people have spent years trying to figure it out. You also have to look at the location of a given text in a dig. And you have to estimate the purpose it fulfilled. We have books today which are self-contained i.e. if an alien picks up a book and decrypts it, cover to cover, they will be able to understand who printed the book, who wrote it, who promoted it, where it was sold, what its price is, etc. But archaeological inscriptions are not books. They are like seals, coins, stamps, notice boards, traffic signs, hoardings, etc. Imagine if an alien saw Virat Kohli on a hoarding beside a highway and concluded that cricket is played on roads. They would wonder how this was accomplished and would conclude that roads had two purposes - transport and cricket. Only after much study will the alien understand that we use a concept called advertising and that too, while distracting drivers from driving. Context is what matters, and that can only be obtained by actually visiting the dig site or a perfect replica model on a computer or paper.
In my opinion this video is probably one of the best videos showcasing one aspect of the mysterious civilization that we had I wonder if there will be more reaction videos coming on this video
Great analysis, probably 2 is correct. I think also it's not complete to analyze now as we've passed millennia of destruction over the areas of the IVC, but once we dig more and decipher the language, we might find out more.

@@zaidrahman121. Yes, it's completely right that that we are not sure about indus valley religion. But the seal which shares some yoga like Padmasana and showing animals as holy.

@@zaidrahman121.There was no religion back then because all people followed same rituals and culture. When the Brits came they segregated the rest of the people who were not Christians and Muslims as Hindus
In DAV class 6th text books it's mentioned that mohen Jo daro was built 9 times at same site.Alsoo I think the decline of Indus valley civilisation was change in course of Indus river,or invasion from Aryans.
IVC people spoke Hurrian ( હળિયન ) language, folks from Saurashtra, especially oldies still uses many words from that archaic language vocabulary, which predates Sanskrit.
Awesome content with reference of archeologists. Also the Saraswati river that completely dried up. Nice to know that many archeologists around the world and India still researching on Indus Valley Civilization 💯🤘🏻👌🏼
As a history major, I still find it hard to gauge the amount of viol3nce in our human past - not just wrt India. And I feel bad to see most people regarding many vi0lent Indian kings or emperors of the past with so much respect. As if to learn moral lessons from them! There were really so many constant vi0lent battles, wars in this very place for power, wealth and prestige. While the middle class, the farmers and others suffered and lived a real sh1tty life compared to the nobility.
I read in class 12th , with humanities , and in my history book the indus valley civilisation is 1st chapter ,,it is very interesting , by this chapter I get more interest in history❤❤❤❤
There is also an aryan invasion and migration theory. According to it, the skulls that had been found with indentations were mostly due to aryan invasion. But these also have their own shortcomings, as it was proposed by british to validate their rule in india. Only time will tell, what's true and what is not. Kudos to Mohak, for such an elaborate discussion on this topic. Much needed discussions!
@@MonkeyDLuffy-pc9fk that's what the British said to lay a claim on india. They said that Since they were more pure aryans than us (since North indians are mix of aryan and Dravidian dna) and said Indians are impure aryans. So the British (so called pure aryans) wanted to 'civilize' us back to our 'aryan' roots. This is one of the justifications the British for what they did here.
@@MonkeyDLuffy-pc9fk All colonial powers were associated with this thought process/ideals not just germany....british also pandered ,nurtured the entire racial eugenics,nazi theories of purity and endorsed the symbols used by them including thunderbolts,iron cross and the infamous twisted version of swastika
Indus Valley residents can't imagine in their dream that how divided their successors would be after thousands of years in the form of both India and Pakistan. This is extremely sad.
Sorry to say. The current world scenario is actually better for humans to exist. Darwin theory depicts "Survival to the fittest". This actually holds for every social system, equalities in inequalities and welfare for majorities. Maybe undivided India wouldn't be as prosperous as current India is!
@@PallabDas-ff4ek It is survival of the fittest. Also, I don't really think this applies to everything, anyways Darwin only said it in terms of Biology. Also, the fitness is of an individual of the population to adapt to the changing world. It doesn't necessarily mean that the world changed in a better way. For example, Germany didn't become a better place after Nazis took control of it. Sometimes world can become better while other times it can become worse. In what way is today's world better for humans to exist?
@@PallabDas-ff4ekThat's ridiculous logic. A united India would have had less bloodshed, destructions, invasions that lead to worse economy. A united people would share resources and live sustainably instead of the rich zamindars, emperors, Brahmins collecting wealth and high status; while majority of the people live a lower middle class life. Darwin's theory either applies for biological evolution between species or competition between uncivilized 'animals' who don't have a conscious mind. Humans with a prefrontal cortex (conscious mind ) would have done better to live in unity.

The Harappan Civilization from the beginning was the joint civilization of the Druhyus (who later largely migrated out of India already in pre-Mature-Harappan times), the Anus (in its northwestern parts), the Yadus (in its southern parts) and the Pūrus (in its northeastern parts). There were other Pūrus and Yadus further inside India who represented more internal cultures. The Anus were the speakers of the Iranian, Armenian, Greek and Albanian ancestral languages, and the Druhyus were the speakers of the Anatolian, Tocharian, Italic, Celtic, Germanic, Baltic and Slavic ancestral languages. After the battle of 10 kings of Rig Veda the 9 Anu tribes and remaining 1 Druhyu tribe moved out of indian and settled in various parts of Iran, Central Asia and Europe spreading with them the Indo-European languages.

It was only after the advent of Buddhism that the diet of many Indians was changed to vegetarianism.
Dasrajna yuddha was from much later time period after Aryan settlers had arrived in present day Afghanistan.

I am in support of second. Conflicts are in every society but seeing the lvl of development at the society and personal lvl is just astonishing! Only a place with minimal interference can achieve that lvl of development with peace. Include the factor of prosperous society and good partners, we will get a ever changing society like flowing river, "we may face challenges during monsoon, but we will win the year!"
Difference between kings belonging to dharmic religions and those from abrahmic is huge, none of the wars fought by actual indian kings were religious in nature where as muslims kings and christians have had multiple religious wars
I mean, true but that didn’t stop violence in india, india was just as violent as abhramic countries. In fact, this is true for all of Asia, Asia east of India tends to have less religious wars but still they have just as many wars and just as many people die, just for different reasons
Territorial wars and religious war is different where people are always at harm in religious wars, for territorial there is alwys good chnces tht normal people can stay away from tht

Well, according to the research at Sinuali, they found a chariot kind of thing with a buried skeleton. As of now, we do not have any fact of the Sindhu-Saraswati Civilazation, but we have found so many burial around the nation at the same timeline. And we know Indian subcontinent is full of rivers & tributaries so isn't it a possibility for so many unknown civilizations around here?

As far as I could read up, apparently, the collapse of the Indus Valley Civilization was because of the change in global weather around 4200 years ago, which shifted the Indian monsoons further to the southeast, which ended up reducing the irrigation ability of the Indus river, thereby expanding the size of the Thar Desert. Thus, faced with reduced agricultural yields, the residents moved further east and southeast, eventually settling at the Gangetic plains.
This event is known as the "4.2 kiloyear BP aridification event", which is also one of the reasons why the Egyptian civilization shrank massively in size, and the Mesopotamian civilization withdrew to the northern and southern ends of the Tigris-Euphrates river systems.
@@Swapnil4055 Proof?
@@mainakguha732 Proof of the religious practices of the Indus Valley Civilization is always going to be difficult because there is no "Rosetta Stone" that could help in deciphering the language of the Indus Valley Civilization. Even the religion of Egypt was mysteriously vague until the Rosetta Stone was discovered, which gave the ability to read Hieroglyphs, which explained the significance of all the Gods in the Egyptian religion. Until such a Rosetta Stone is discovered, the actual religious and cultural practices will always be under speculation.
However, there is indeed legit proof of the "4.2 kiloyear BP aridification event", from the studies of climate change over the centuries. Scientists have even said that this aridification event is part of a 5k-10k year cycle of inversion of the North African monsoons and that within the next 10,000 years, the Sahara desert would see copious amounts of monsoons and turn back into a lush and productive region that it had been during the starting stages of the Egyptian and Mesopotamian Civilizations.
@@prabhatsourya3883 Thank you for the educational answer. I have some knowledge about the factors you discussed. But the proof I wanted was about the Indus Valley people being Shaivaites, for which no concrete proof currently exists.

न राज्यं न च राजासीत् न दण्ड्यो न च दाण्डिकः। धर्मेणैव प्रजा: सर्वा रक्षन्ति स्म परस्परम् ॥
There was neither a kingdom, nor a king. Neither someone punished, nor a punisher. By Dharma alone all the citizens protected each other.

I like how subconsciously the Indian civilization had ended up retaining peace and non violence during independence and even to this day has no first attack/strike policy. It is also generally considered a peaceful partner across the globe by several countries and has the best international diplomacy barring Pakistan (and still holds the largest trade with China)

Really look up the reality bro. Most of the villages in indus valley have been found to contain burn marks which means they were raided and burned. Secondly various weapons graves(possible massacre sites) were also found. It is not that indus valley was pretty peaceful.

Loved this video Mohak. It cleared up many of the aspects of the Indus Valley Civilization to me, more so than what I read in school about it.
However, I would like to add that Indus Valley Civilization did have clear evidence of violence too. Indus Valley Civilization was invaded by the Achaemenid Empire of Iran. This is mentioned in the Behistun inscription of Iran, and there are many sculptures of ancient Iran in which Indus Valley people are shown giving tributes to Iran as well. So, there was violence in Indus Valley for sure, but it wasn't a violence-based or invasion-based society. They were good within their boundaries and didn't care about expanding.

omg i thought I was the only one who noticed that 😂
Very nice video. Maybe in the future you can talk about further mysteries about the civilization's demise, the nature of it: it is said in the later stages of decline the cities were still in use, but the urban planning was horrendous, buildings appeared to be constructed with no sense of planning, something which wasn't seen before in the mature harappan phase, the one where development was at its peak. People seem to have just buried their jewellery as if in anticipation of future return! Tools were left as if the workers suddenly decided to take a break but they never came back! Then the probable disappearance of the Indus Valley people to the south of the peninsula and arrival of the Steppe peoples would be an interesting historical topic too. There is so much to explore and as people learn more about this and there is more limelight on this beautiful topic, the government may ramp up the efforts to excavate evidence.
So, Basically all the elites, specially traders, architechts, and people who had advance knowledge of their craft and agriculture left and formed empire called Mithanni, spear headed by Mithada people of IVC, Mitha ( meaning salt ), basically traders from salt or coastal region.
Later Vedic God Mitra came from them, the god of language and diplomacy.
Those IVC people mated with steppes there, and created a tribe called Aryan, name of which was derived from Hurrian, the language of IVC, especially Harappans.
After Mithanni fell, Assyrians mass deported population, although Aryan elites migrated to Europe and dispersed there, commoners Aryan came back and settled in hilly regions of Afghanistan.
With their advances knowledge of agriculture purely based on rain, they didn't need to live in large settlements near river. Various villages formed in surrounding areas Afghanistan, Pakistan, Hariyana, Punjab...region came to be known as Aryavarta.
Those elites Aryan from Europe sailed to India later and transformed archaic, Ritualistic Vedic Sanskrit in to classical and philosophical form and unleashed Dharma on subcontinent and south east Asia.
@@kalpeshkumarpatel380 Interesting! Any reading material for this information?
Those jewels were most likely left there during floods, or more likely ceremonially left for dead people to use in the afterlife. Stepp migration itself shows no evidence of violence, which means they still prob fought but no conquest like we are taught. Besides, both early Vedic period and late IVC period are cultural continuums, so the same people who built IVC became semi-nomadic after fall of IVC and wrote the vedas (but obviously with stepp people coming from north and Austroasiatics coming from east in as well)
@@kalpeshkumarpatel380genetic studies says otherwise
@@zuesmaya8167 There's not much evidence of frequent flooding to warrant that claim of burying jewellery, nor were the mentioned jewels found in burial sites. So, that's why it's mysterious. And I'm not sure if IVC people wrote the Vedas or at least the earliest Vedas because the Rig Veda culture shows similarity to the Sintashta Culture, which is a late Bronze Age culture above Afghanistan whose people are from the Steppes.

Violence stems from the need to have what one has not but others do, society here is able to provide for all. Good economics= good society
A good, prosperous region would definitely attract warring nomads, looters and other expansionist kingdoms ..so is the pattern observed throughout the history...they would have needed some sort of protection, fortification, law and order...a society cannot survive without these basic needs.
@@herambpatkar you're right and you have to look at the population numbers, this is still tribal and pastoral society in surrounding region they are not in great numbers, agriculture is still very primitive so people have still not settlled much plus the biggest shelter is from the hindu kush, you can enter the north west from only two passes which are treacherous treads, in north you have the himalaya east are forested and south is sea, so pretty safe from warring tribes but what you said will eventually happen as aryan migration happens
Mountain Ranges may have acted as their fortifications.
@uncle20help84 I agree...I was looking at it from an iron age perspective. We need to consider the fact that this was the bronze age...they were naturally protected from all side...large scale invasion, conquest happened in the world only after the invention of horse driven charriots, use of horses from central Eurasia and usage of stronger weapons made from iron!!
@@herambpatkar yes but we are looking only at external threats, internal threats are also prevalent in any society which basically creeps up due to inequalities, but if there are close to none then society will be peaceful, ultimately its all about resources and their optimal distribution which harappans would have done the best and egyptians and mesopotamians couldn't, i think it boil downs to philosophy of the society too, mohak said we ran a heterarchy system and the other two civilizations were hierarchical, that could be an important factor too, don't you think?
Fantastic video. Really needed something like this!
Please continue this series sir.
10:15 this seal may depict that the bull was used in agriculture to plough lands.
1.The extreme left symbol can be the agricultural plot
2.the extreme right symbol can be the wheel of a cart.
3.The symbol to the left of the cart looks like some irrigation channels? The vertical line at the top is the main source of water and the horizontal lines in the rectangle are channels?
4. The symbol next to the extreme left, looks like a plough? (it's called नांगर in marathi)
5. The middle symbol is unclear. Does the trident above are roots of crops? Ropes used to tie the bulls to the cart? Or maybe am just interpreting this one for the sake of it.
Most probably this script was logographic, not pictographic. But still you have an amazing theory.
The charm of the Indus Valley script is that it looks obviously pictorial, but statistical analysis shows that it is alphabetical, meaning "abcd...." not "plough, bull, wheel, cart....". This has been looked into through a century by people who are really well educated and resourceful - linguists, archaeologists, computer scientists, computational linguists, historians and so on. I made the same assumption as you - that it's obviously pictorial, but then went and googled the amount of research done on it. Look it up. Really intelligent people have spent years trying to figure it out. You also have to look at the location of a given text in a dig. And you have to estimate the purpose it fulfilled. We have books today which are self-contained i.e. if an alien picks up a book and decrypts it, cover to cover, they will be able to understand who printed the book, who wrote it, who promoted it, where it was sold, what its price is, etc. But archaeological inscriptions are not books. They are like seals, coins, stamps, notice boards, traffic signs, hoardings, etc. Imagine if an alien saw Virat Kohli on a hoarding beside a highway and concluded that cricket is played on roads. They would wonder how this was accomplished and would conclude that roads had two purposes - transport and cricket. Only after much study will the alien understand that we use a concept called advertising and that too, while distracting drivers from driving. Context is what matters, and that can only be obtained by actually visiting the dig site or a perfect replica model on a computer or paper.

There is also an aryan invasion and migration theory. According to it, the skulls that had been found with indentations were mostly due to aryan invasion. But these also have their own shortcomings, as it was proposed by british to validate their rule in india.

Sorry to say. The current world scenario is actually better for humans to exist. Darwin theory depicts "Survival to the fittest". This actually holds for every social system, equalities in inequalities and welfare for majorities. Maybe undivided India wouldn't be as prosperous as current India is!
@@PallabDas-ff4ek It is survival of the fittest. Also, I don't really think this applies to everything, anyways Darwin only said it in terms of Biology. Also, the fitness is of an individual of the population to adapt to the changing world. It doesn't necessarily mean that the world changed in a better way. For example, Germany didn't become a better place after Nazis took control of it. Sometimes world can become better while other times it can become worse.
In what way is today's world better for humans to exist?
@@PallabDas-ff4ekThat's ridiculous logic. A united India would have had less bloodshed, destructions, invasions that lead to worse economy. A united people would share resources and live sustainably instead of the rich zamindars, emperors, Brahmins collecting wealth and high status; while majority of the people live a lower middle class life.
Darwin's theory either applies for biological evolution between species or competition between uncivilized 'animals' who don't have a conscious mind. Humans with a prefrontal cortex (conscious mind ) would have done better to live in unity.
Indus Valley people were the first ones to break the matrix. Truly ahead of their time.

The Harappan Civilization from the beginning was the joint civilization of the Druhyus (who later largely migrated out of India already in pre-Mature-Harappan times), the Anus (in its northwestern parts), the Yadus (in its southern parts) and the Pūrus (in its northeastern parts). There were other Pūrus and Yadus further inside India who represented more internal cultures. The Anus were the speakers of the Iranian, Armenian, Greek and Albanian ancestral languages, and the Druhyus were the speakers of the Anatolian, Tocharian, Italic, Celtic, Germanic, Baltic and Slavic ancestral languages. After the battle of 10 kings of Rig Veda the 9 Anu tribes and remaining 1 Druhyu tribe moved out of indian and settled in various parts of Iran, Central Asia and Europe spreading with them the Indo-European languages.
Interesting. Can you kindly point to some sites or links where this is explained in more detail? Of course, I can google, but I would struggle to decide which sources are reliable and which are lower quality. Thanks.

Most important thing of Indus valley civilization was non existence of religions and free from castism which made the civilization peaceful
No, there were existence of fire altars, used for rituals. They also worshipped Mother Goddess and Pushupati (Shiva). Women used sindoor. All in all, many resemblance with Vedic/Hindu tradition.

@@danyalhassan6276 In ancient India, both forms (burial and cremation) were common. Moreover, only 200 or so bodies have been found buried in Indus Valley.
Regarding beef eating, the consumption of the meat of ox, cow, goat etc was common in Vedic age. Even Brahmins and Kshatriyas used to eat it. It was only after the advent of Buddhism that the diet of many Indians was changed to vegetarianism.
They 100% had religion, many of who we still pray to today like shiva, and possibly Durga

Dude .. this video is great… I would suggest u to look into southern civilisation history like recent excavations in tamilnadu
Plz make video on Dasraj yuddha (Battle of Ten Kings) mentioned in Rig Veda which is probably the most ancient epic about a king of Bharata dynasty.
Yes..
उसके बारे में ज्यादा जानकारी शायद ही उपलब्ध हो.. समय के साथ और आक्रमणकारियों के कारण हमारा पुरातन इतिहास मिट चुका है
Dasrajna yuddha was from much later time period after Aryan settlers had arrived in present day Afghanistan. Very plausible since they were warlike people from central Asia, violence was an integral part of their culture.Also hierarchy was very visible in their social customs,rituals, practices.
Don't you think it were the same people as those from indus valley.
@@abandoned-user true 💀 one of my teacher said that those are same people.
@@SudhanshuDhanraj well that's not unusual since not many people know much about history except for Ashoka or Mughals.
Still it's pathetic they don't it as a history teacher.
The alternation between a clean shaven face and a bearded face, without changing the shirt, and without any discontinunity in the script is very interesting. Try to do that more often, Mohak. Also change the shirt while doing so.
I am in support of second.
Conflicts are in every society but seeing the lvl of development at the society and personal lvl is just astonishing! Only a place with minimal interference can achieve that lvl of development with peace. Include the factor of prosperous society and good partners, we will get a ever changing society like flowing river, "we may face challenges during monsoon, but we will win the year!"
Difference between kings belonging to dharmic religions and those from abrahmic is huge, none of the wars fought by actual indian kings were religious in nature where as muslims kings and christians have had multiple religious wars
😂
I mean, true but that didn’t stop violence in india, india was just as violent as abhramic countries. In fact, this is true for all of Asia, Asia east of India tends to have less religious wars but still they have just as many wars and just as many people die, just for different reasons
@@zuesmaya8167 yea territorial wars and religious wars are very different
Territorial wars and religious war is different where people are always at harm in religious wars, for territorial there is alwys good chnces tht normal people can stay away from tht
The rulers used the religion expansion to boost the moral of the soldiers! But the kings had less interest in the religion.
It's quite interesting to know about our Indian historical events.
@MohakMangal, greetings brother, thanks for all of your viedos, i personally have learnt so much from you, keep it up sir, i have a suggestion if possible please make a video on narcissistic personality disorder on your own interpretation of this topic as i myself am a victim of narcissistic abuse, this will be so kind of you,
Thanks
The languages spoken in present day region of Indus valley are brutally murdered by Islamist and British both Kutchi and Sindhi are becoming extinct now
😂 Nonsense
Total nonsense,hindutvva mindset
Check your facts rather than being blinded by hate. Sindhi is a mandatory subject for every government school in Sindh, Pakistan.
I'm from The city of Mohenjo-Daro ❤ love you from Larkana
You are my favorite you tuber, love your videos 😊
Well, according to the research at Sinuali, they found a chariot kind of thing with a buried skeleton. As of now, we do not have any fact of the Sindhu-Saraswati Civilazation, but we have found so many burial around the nation at the same timeline. And we know Indian subcontinent is full of rivers & tributaries so isn't it a possibility for so many unknown civilizations around here?
We know of some sister civilizations around india. Daimad is theorized to be a trading colony in Maharashtra, there were trading colonies in the south, also there was a pretty sophisticated native contemporary civilization in Bengal probably ruled by the Mundas
I agree with you , From mughals to rajputs everyone was violent asf , our ancestors have suffered a lot of pain , better life is experienced from 20th century when monarchy came to an end
All kings are violent.
Not that indian democracy is any better .... UK,Sweden, Denmark ,Norway, Japan and all countries with Constitutional monarchies are better than your Democratic India

All these debates that you mentioned are done by historians, not archaeologists. Archaeologists and historians are different. I am a history honours student of Delhi University, so my professor has discussed the debates of all these historians in the lectures.
Sorry, I said this so that wrong information does not spread because incomplete knowledge is very dangerous. 😊😊
I agree with the second opinion.
Indus valley civilization was comparatively equal and peaceful ☺☺☺
ghanta ...... no civilization is peacefull ....
Akbar, babur etc humara itihas nahi hai, wo intruders the sab.
Raja to pehle ke samay me the jese Raja bhoj, vikramaditya etc
Indus valley civilization me log bhagwan Pashupatinath Yani shiv bhagwan ko poojte the isliye wo itne peaceful the aur unki protection khud shiv karte the isliye wahan weapons etc nhi mile. Sanatana Dharma me hinsa k liye jagah hai hi nahi, sabse peaceful aur nature ko nuksan na pahuchate hue kese Raha jata tha wo idhar sikhaya jata tha.
Even Gods of heaven Indra, Vayu, and others destroyed Demons(rakshas). So, Violence used for the protection of people from evil was always justified.
Indra 10,000 troops, Honeytrap Ladies were Eurasian Steppe, Volga Kazakhstan Yanmya Marauding Atrocious Mukh-Putra Brahminvad enemies of our Ancestors of Indus Valley Civilization, Mahisasur, Cchand-Mund, Hirnyaksh and Hirnakashyap were our Ancestors.
