    Anirudh Kanisetti with thinking medieval and Disha Ahluwalia with Archeology, The Print is giving us history lesson that we needed but never had. Kudos.
    Waiting for more from both of you.

    This was a fascinating watch. The earliest known proof of Harappan civilization was 3500 BCE from what I've read so far, does this mean it's at least 2000 years older than that?

    A remarkable revelation! Agrarian society was largely believed to be concerned with food production. The Harappans produced cotton for clothing & for trade.

    If Harappan took the cotton to rest of the world then there must be coins or trading routs proving they interacted with the world. To decipher their script a parallel Egyptian or Greek reference was enough. They weren’t sea faring civilization hence saying they took cotton to the world is false. Egyptians knew the cotton or agricultural practices about 5000 years BC. Knowing Cotton production is bit advanced agriculture state. Then question is why Harrapans vanished ?

    do you believe that the archeological evid3nces are well preserved in desertic places like harappa and mesopotamia and lost in wet tropical places with high forrest cover????

    • @jarjarbinks3193
      @jarjarbinks3193 Рік тому +1

      Yes, higher humidity leads to objects decaying/falling apart fast. Dry desert conditions (with a lot less humidity) preserve things better.

    indian subcontinent existed for thousand of years. india as a country existed when the British East India cobbled all the kingdoms and tribes together to form India. if India was a country, then why the partition after independence? even certain parts of India didn't belong to India because they're of different race, Tibetans and Burmans.

    Our world recorded history is less than 4000 but then how you trace back to 7000. If it's just a belief then it's ok but you have details about it then please gives us some references of primary and important secondary sources. I hope that. And one criticism is your whole organisation of theprint always carries reports and opinions that are more undesirable to Muslims and some reports and opinions videos or articles are more desirable to hindus. I hope you clarify about it.

      *Our world's recorded history is NOT less than 4000 years.*
      Don't know where you found this figure, but it's wrong.
      *A* The oldest cave paintings are about 64,000 years old. Cave paintings signify a few things:
      1. Intelligence enough to find ways to colour rocks with other rocks/ pigments.
      2. Civilization enough to record what seemed to be important.
      *B* The oldest recorded use of horses by humans is about 7,000 years old.
      *C* The oldest use of metallic tools by humans, the bronze age, is recorded about 3300BC, which is about 5,300 years ago.
      *D* The earliest evidence of agriculture is about 12,000 years ago.
      Agriculture signifies that the humans had formed societies, and were living in the same place for multiple years.
      *E* The oldest written text is nowadays considered to be the Kish tablet, which is 5,500 years old. Although today many claim that much older texts are available.
      4000 years is nothing in the scale of human civilization.

      @@ayush885 it's not that the harappan civilization dates back to around 2600 to 1900 bce which is the approximate dating , which should be 4600 years ago . Then how a civilization belongings to 3rd millennium went to nearly 6th millennium is my doubt

      Ohhh.. Yeah.
      We could have easily found out more old history that could have been beyond 5000 Years, But the Tyrant, rapist called "Khilji" Destroyed nalanda and burnt its Library. The millions of books which burnt for three months in that library could have contained history of 1000's of years.
