The “arms” on the Nazi swastika point to the right, as opposed to the one engraved in the video, which pints to the left Comment from : @scienceexplains302

Fascinating links with Mesopotamia… I believe that the Sumerians learnt brick making, agriculture, iron works and jewellery craft from traders coming from the Indus Valley Mohenjodaro may have lost its significance when the Silk Road from China started the obvious link may actually be religious Comment from : @franceleeparis37

The same writing script was found on Easter Island and the Indus Valley Civilization Comment from : @canadiankewldude

I feel this video is non biased ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Comment from : @nvcworld6423

Thanks 🙏 Comment from : @AlkanandaMohapatra333

Outstanding Any updates? Mom attended UC pre WW2, and the family interest in archeology and anthropology is everlasting What were the sea levels? Maps of extinct rivers would be nice too Water development and storage I have seen other documentaries focusing on the submerged occupations and ancient rivers, but an updated 2-3 part series bringing it all together would be great!

Fantastic Wonderful presentation & info Comment from : @thomasf5768

Fantastic, thanks for sharing Amazing how we now are able to gather actual evidence on their life thanks to technology like isotopes or Dna locii Also, on the topic of decoding the langage without rosetta stone, have you heard of this promising machine learning unsupervised technology that enables to translate say french into english without a parallel corpora ? Just by identifying the patterns of the langage Accuracy is close to Google translate "original" version (before ML) which was very décent I'll post a link to the publication Comment from : @brunogens

THis lecture was great I think Mari is really important and was a diplomatic and trade centre for a lot longer than we know Its nice to be able to synthesise these periods and places and I enjoyed this lecture very much Comment from : @idgeofreason8630

Indus is the Tamil civilization that was an extension after the lemurianthis may sound as a mythbut if anyone can correlate the time and the history the anaswer would be clearTamil being the oldest language and the civilization as wellthe recent findings at the archaeological site keezhadi in Tamil Nadu has proven Artifacts of Tamizhi scripts that are found on the artifacts of Indus valley civilization Comment from : @seemasmusicparadiseenlight7838

Excellent presentation! Comment from : @hariunni

They never seem to understand that walls are mainly to keep ANIMALS out of the settlement, not politics And, for some WATER Well, theives too Comment from : @casparcoaster1936

Cities with adjacent areas can be part of a system of defence Medieval european cities often had various wards Comment from : @johnrohde5510

Please research on brGuthi Comment from : @stoneagepermaculturefarm2466

Origin of Indus civilization??????? Comment from : @stoneagepermaculturefarm2466

Plz do research on brNepami civilization Comment from : @stoneagepermaculturefarm2466

Thanks for the knowledge! One of the greatest under rated civilization on earth Comment from : @sammythewarrior

Wow! Thank you Professor! Wonderful work and dedication unparalleled! Wish you more such discoveries! Comment from : @Dekanalini

The professor just throw in the "HORSE" 1,900 BC! Hmm, do we have a picture? probably they want to write the word "horse" before drawing the picture The earliest RIKS of Rigveda mentions bullock carts not horsesplease read "A History of Rigveda" Unfortunately searching for unicorn bones will only lead to frustration but listening to Mrugendra might throw some light on this topic For that watch "Identification of Unicorn (Indus-Saraswati Civilization)-Part-3 | Sh Mrugendra Vinod | Unless you understand the vedic tradition you can not interpret Sindhu/Saraswati culture in a satisfactory way Comment from : @suryadevararao1795

good presentation Comment from : @profrajeshmaurya5078

35:59 seal shows a clear and proper rhino on top left, 2nd row This is quite different from the unicorn seen before both in position of horn on head and general aspect ratio of the body So they really dont seem to be the same thing Comment from : @NishanthSalahudeen

They don't want you to know too much about this civilization for a certain reason too 🤫 Comment from : @prairiestategenetixseeds9726

Fantastic- wish I’d watched it before my assignment on trade links between Mesopotamia and Indus Valley! Comment from : @joanleaming6684

Finally!!!! Someone who goes into the day to day goings on in this Great Civilization Comment from : @teresaoconnell4790

Grazie per questa bellissima conferenza Comment from : @giancarlotescaroli8100

I wonder if the rhinoceros might be the origin of the unicorn legend, how would one describe it an animal a bit bigger than a horse with a big horn sticking out of it's head? Comment from : @lambastepirate

Lecture starts at 5:40 Comment from : @RonJohn63

Beads in China might come from south india Comment from : @manikandan-ml9gd

Very detailed lecture with minute observations throwing new life on Indus Civilization Comment from : @vidyanandmishra5547

Keezhadi is in Tamil Nadu state in India in the southernmost part Comment from : @nixonvaij

I can say I belong to Indus civilization because of the graffiti we got in Keezhadi which in the lower stratum and in the middle stratum we have got graffiti and Tamizh and in the upper stratum we got only Tamizh that means we are from Indus You can see the details, typing Keezhadi excavation Comment from : @nixonvaij

Thank you Sir for your valuable research Hopefull to see more on it Comment from : @simantagogoi8036

What is fascinating is that Indians mastered and used digital number systems from the earliest times - binary, hexadecimal (base 4), decimal, and maybe octal (base 8) The system for small weights was binary - the significance of this is that this requires the least number of weights to measure out any weight in one go Larger weights were in decimal (base 10) - this allows multiple use of the same weights, and counting the measures on fingers to again reduce the number of weights required The hexadecimal and octal base number systems are an easier way to count and write down binary quantities Comment from : @pisquared1827

I have seen exactly the same bull shape here in taxila Still stone craftsmen make it on stone decoration pieces brThis symbol shows protection of strong against evil Comment from : @zippywheels8031

Hello from Michael Kenoyer and Justin, Sarah, Jet, Jace, Jax, Jude & Jamison Kenoyer Comment from : @mkenoyer

Nice work Thanks Comment from : @lightcatcher3

This is a fascinating lecture It's strange to think people were trading with each other, covering vast distances Comment from : @archersterling5919

Great lecture! Comment from : @CostaCola

Very intriguing presentation to me since I visited lothal and dholavira I guess Indus civilisation arises when Sumerian’s migrated from Mesopotamia after defeat by assyrians or some others In course of time assimilated already extant people of Indus regionOr they migrated from east Africa the birth place of mankind and develope their own civilization We need another lecture only on origin and migration of people of Indus civilization Comment from : @NIKhan

The very core reason for these great cities and cultures that sprang up along these rivers, was for the collection of GOLD Comment from : @MrDennisLB

It's evedince water buffalo came from Dravidian mahisasuranIt's show we TAMILS spreading civilization to all over earth Comment from : @NithyanandhaSubramaniam

This Indus valley are Tamil origin after the great floodall are from Himalayan mountain Comment from : @NithyanandhaSubramaniam

din't mention that the seated deity was shiva , it is clear from the seal it has 3 heads and if you see shiva in indian temples also has 3 heads dipicted sometimes as trimukhi shiva as in elephanta caves in mumbaiThis is a clear link which every one tries to underplay Shiva is known as adi yogi or first yogi and in the seal he is sitting in mula bandhana asan not easy lotus posture Comment from : @devivinod

why was the indus script found on easter island? Comment from : @FlyingTiger2099

It wont to be if I call it the ''Hindu civilization'' Comment from : @qh5716

And also, he doesn't want to go into detail about their drilling techniques, but i would certainly like to see someone today to replicate their drilling techniques Comment from : @alemcodon

Wow, excellent upload and some very interesting information about Indus Valley which i never knew before Stunning artwork on on the artifactsbrAnd what an excellent speaker, why weren't my university lecturers like this? Comment from : @alemcodon

Thanks, it is a very good lecture Comment from : @Palaeogeobicho

Good show! Comment from : @gogogeedus

I personally believe that all the great cities evolved around rivers and garths were used to supply fresh fish for these settlements and of course the fresh water was eventually used for farming, so garths and weirs were built before most of the other activities took place, I also believe it is possible that some of the structures in ancient cities may have been to contain live fish for fresh sea food Comment from : @gogogeedus

Cool! Comment from : @alexandroshomegas6867

Thank you very much for your so interesting lecture videos! Comment from : @saezvirginia4575

Inspiring lecture about a great ancient civilised race ! Comment from : @jamesrimmer2226

Fantastic! The first thing that strikes me is how 'civilized' these people were - the fusion of science, culture, trade, relative non-violence, spiritual development is compelling Thank you Mark! Comment from : @astrosach

Great presentation! Thanks for your research Hopefully the day that we find a "Rosetta Stone" for the Indus Valley Civilization is not far away Comment from : @haqmojudsadamojud
