Hello friends, we are residents of Hadapa.
It is currently 2600 BCE.
Many questions in your exam come from our civilization.
Therefore, watch this video carefully.
About 5,000 years ago from today,
A civilization once flourished upon the soil of our country,
Not only did she create magnificent cities,
Rather, the finest drains, sparkling utensils,
She also created unique sculptures.
Yes, I'm talking about the Harappan civilization.
Welcome to our Shahar Mohenjo-daro.
Come on, let's go back to that era,
Where our oldest and most mysterious history begins.
Around 2,500 years before Christ,
This civilization was spread across the western part of South Asia.
The region known today as Pakistan and western India.
You will be surprised to know that the Indus Valley Civilization,
At that time, the world included Egypt, Mesopotamia, and China.
It was far more advanced than even the oldest civilizations.
In the year 1920,
When the Archaeological Survey of India conducted excavations here,
Two major cities, Harappa and Mohenjo-daro, were discovered.
And then in 1924, Director General John Marshall of the department
Officially, this new assembly was unveiled before the world.
The Harappan civilization was known for its planning of well-designed cities.
Fortresses were built on elevated ground in cities such as Mohenjo-daro and Harappa.
This is our Mohenjo-daro, the western part, which we call the citadel, built on a high elevated site.
This is the eastern part, larger than the city of Durag, but located at a lower elevation.
This is where ordinary people like us live.
Houses of common people made of mud were located beneath these forts.
What was most special about this assembly was
Grid system, meaning roads were built in this manner
that they cross each other at a straight 90 degrees
You see, our streets are completely straight.
Large warehouses were built here.
They used harpapa sabbhita-wala paki intons.
Meanwhile, in Egypt, raw hides were being used at the same time.
We build homes using strong, baked bricks.
Their cities had an exceptionally excellent sewage system.
Every small and large house had its own bathing area and courtyard.
In most houses in Kalibanga, wells were not found.
Cities like Lothal and Dholavira were surrounded by strong walls.
This is our great bathhouse.
Made of solid bricks and waterproof mortar
The people of Harappa Civilization knew how to cast objects made of copper.
Tamba came from the Khetari mine in Rajasthan.
And tin was probably brought from Afghanistan.
The stoppers used in weaving work were found in several places.
We learn from the construction of large dams
that Rajgir and Mistri Varakh were present there
Look, our seals are made of steel tight.
The Harappans also made figurines and seals.
Creating clay figurines and shiny vessels was their distinctive hallmark.
Jewelers who made ornaments from gold, silver, and precious stones were also present there.
We make such vessels in the Harappan style, look here
Geometric design and how strong
Very few written records have been found from the Indus Valley Civilization.
And those that have been found have not yet been fully read up to today.
Therefore, it is difficult to understand what the state administration was like.
No temple records have been found, so it is assumed that the priests did not hold any special authority.
Many scholars believe that the Harappan civilization was in the hands of a merchant class.
Some scholars also claim that there was no ruling class there.
Everyone had been granted the highest rank.
Some other scholars believe that different ruling classes existed in different cities.
Religion is revealed by clay figurines, indicating that people regarded the Earth as the goddess of fertility and worshipped her.
Just as the people of Egypt revered the Nile River as a goddess, on seals they also found a depiction of a male deity with three horns, shown seated in the yogic posture.
Elephants, deer, bison, and antelopes are arranged around him on all sides. Deer are near his feet.
This image was later identified as Lord Shiva, also known as Pashupati Mahadeva. Images of lingams and female genitalia have been found on several stones.
We worship trees and animals. Nature itself is our deity.
Thousands of coins, with identical scripts, weight, and measurements, clearly indicate that trade was a vital part of their lives.
These people engaged in the trade of stone, metal, shell, and conch.
There was no use of currency; instead, a barter system was in operation.
In our market, we exchange utensils for grains.
Look, everything here runs on barter, the lifeblood of our culture.
Their maritime transportation system along the shores of the Arabian Sea was also very good.
They had maintained their trading posts as far as northern Afghanistan.
This made contact with Central Asia easier.
The Harappans also engaged in trade via the lapis lazuli route.
What was considered a preference of the wealthy class.
We trade as far as Mesopotamia.
We are about to reach Lothal.
This is our largest maritime trade center.
The question now arises: how did such a great and advanced civilization suddenly vanish?
On the other hand, many experts believe that the actual cause of its collapse was natural disasters.
It is said that even underground spirits there have turned the plow.
Who were repeatedly hindered by hunger.
There was also a change in the climate there.
Rain patterns have changed.
In some places, rivers have changed their course.
As a result, floods occurred in the fields, affecting food production.
For all these reasons, this civilization gradually weakened.
And finally, she lost her very existence.
The decline of the Indus Valley Civilization did not occur suddenly.
Rather, it was a slow process.
It happened due to several reasons combined.
How did you find our civilization?
