🔴 Watch the rest of the Discovery of India playlist here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5Ag9n-o0IZBGFDCZqsHB7NKMR1PyRpQx Welcome to the first episode of a collaboration with a bunch of History YouTubers: Discovery of India! The Indus Valley Civilization (also known as the Harappan Civilization) popped up around the Indus and Saraswati Rivers in the Indian subcontinent. The discovery of this ancient civilization is quite recent, and the Harappan people are still shrouded in mystery. 🔴 SUBSCRIBE TO NEVER MISS A VIDEO https://www.youtube.com/c/digitwithraven?sub_confirmation=1 🔴 SUPPORT DIG IT WITH RAVEN https://www.patreon.com/digitwithraven It wasn’t until the 1920s with excavations taking place at Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro that this mysterious civilization came to light. The Harappan civilization is unlike other civilizations that were around at the same time. The Indus Valley Civilization was the largest of the ancient civilizations with a population of over 5 million people, over 1500 sites spanning an area of over 1 million square kilometers full of planned cities, sewers, with standardized bricks and units of weight throughout the entire area - Even though some are separated by hundreds of kilometers, Harappan sites are extremely uniform in their city planning and building! Let’s not forget about the massive public water works like the Great Bath of Mohenjo-Daro! A peaceful, chill civilization who loved to take baths? Sign me up! ✅ Let's connect!
