Earliest Civilization of India
Mohenjo Daro - it is an archeological site within the province of Sindh, Pakistan. It was built around 2600 BCE and it was one of the largest settlements of the ancient Indus Valley Civilization, and one of the world's earliest major urban settlements, occurring in the same period of timewith the civilizations of ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, and Crete. Mohenjo-daro was abandoned in the 19th century BCE, and was not rediscovered until 1922. Significant excavation has since been conducted at the site of the city, which was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1980. Furthermore, the site is currently threatened by erosion and also improper restoration.

The current village of Harappa is about 6 km from the ancient site.

REALIZATION:
I learned how the India contaminate their culture and tradition during the Early Civilization. They built statues, temples, etc., they write their record through the clay. The culture and tradition nowadays is very different from their culture and traditions during those days.
