The Birth Of Indus Valley Civilsation

Indus Valley Civilisation began c.2500BC. It first started when the Dravidia
settled in the Indus Plain and started to built cities such as Harappa,
Mohenjo-Daro and Dholavira

At c.1500BC there was a decline of The Indus Valley Civilisation as

there was severe floods which killed many people forcing them to leave.


Worst of all there was invasion by another group of people the Aryans


which speeds up the rate of decline. The Aryans were people who came


from the western part of Asia and they settled in the Ganges of Indus Valley


and worked as Grain Farmers. Over the next few centuries there was a mixing


of the culture of the Indus people and The Aryans.This was the begining of Indian


culture we knew today.
