Mohenjodaro: Story of the oldest civilization

 

One of the greatest mysteries of the world, Mohenjodaro because the script here has neither been read yet nor is there any evidence of its disappearance. When people in the world did not know the difference between food and feces, people here lived in houses made of bricks. After all, they were the people who went where and where. It seems that those people were far ahead of their time. Pipes made of stone and copper and beautiful utensils made of bones and clay, which probably still have the smell of food of that era. Ideal locations for winter are provided for lighting and large pitches made of clay to store water.

The voices of those innocent children are heard even today with these clay toys. The tinkle of the jewels of the women of that city will still resonate in the streets of Mohenjodaro. At that time, such things were available to make everyday tasks easier, which is seen by those people who were very educated and far ahead compared to today. If such a great civilization were today, then think where the human being would be today. Mohenjodaro is famous all over the world because people had established a different world here, which was about four and a half thousand years ago. There is some evidence of that time that proves that even then people used to farm and build their houses and use their own utensils and that was their world. Evidence of many such things is found inside Mohenjodaro. The words of Mohenjodaro are very famous in the pages of history.

It is considered to be the oldest city in the world built by humans, which is the civilization of the Indus Valley. It was earlier in India, but after the separation of Pakistan after nineteen forty seven, it is part of the main Pakistan. Mohenjodaro is the oldest considered city in the world in Sindh. It is the oldest symbol of ancient Indian culture which was located at the end of the Sindh River. Mohenjodaro, built at that time, was no less than any developed city today in its proper planning architectural art and drainage system and this is a big reason. This city to remember it is spread over an area of ​​about five kilometers on the right bank of the Indus River in Larkana district of Sindh province in Pakistan. Mohenjo Daro was discovered in 1922 by Officer RD Banerjee of the Archaeological Survey of India, also known as Raghav Das Bandopadhyay. He excavated this city and revealed the secrets of this great civilization buried under the ground. The evidence found from the excavation and the blocks built here show that all buildings and houses built here have used brick. Just like we use bricks in our homes today and all these bricks were the same size and same size. There was a system of draining water in the houses, the modern water system of this city was like today, the waste coming out of every house and out of the city through the water drain.

 Bathrooms were provided in all the houses and there were wells everywhere in the city. More than 300 wells have been found in the entire city. Looking at all these things, it seems that it was built by some urban architects and the proof of their intelligence is in front of you. There is a place in the middle of this city called bathhouse, there is a bath pond situated in the middle of it which is 12 meters long, 7 meters wide and about 3 meters deep. This swimming pool is one of the attractions of Mohenjodaro. This Great Bad was located in the center of the city. It is believed that people used to go here for their cotton. There were stairs up to the swimming pool. Talk about the people here, people here also used to do farming and their main agricultural crops were wheat and millet. 

The grains of wheat found in the excavation that have turned black are still preserved in the museum. There used to be a special kind of store house to store and sell food items. Here people used to exchange other food items for food grains. In a way, it can also be called a market. When the city was excavated, a special thing came to the fore that no palace temple and memorial marks were found here. One thing comes from the evidence given to us by history that no king, queen or any government existed in Mohenjodaro. The people here preferred governance humility and efficiency. A number of sculptures have been found during the excavation of this city, in which a bronze statue of a famous dancing girl was found and some men have also been found. Some believe that the idol of the man is of the king and some believe that it is just an idol art. The idol of Pashupati Nath, a three-faced man, has also been found on a seal obtained from Mohenjodaro. Elephants around them are the rhinoceros cheetah and buffalo. Idols of innumerable goddesses have also been found in Harappa and Mohenjo Daro. These idols are of the only goddess i.e. Mother Earth or Prakriti Devi. Researchers believe that they worshiped nature. Indians have been worshiping only or nature since ancient times and are also worshiping in modern times. The evidence found suggests that in this civilization, people used to play games like chase and snake ladder and from this city many toys of children have been found which you have seen in modern times. The residents of Mohenjodaro were quite modern in art and culture as many instruments of playing instruments have also been found from there and the people also for the use of jewelery. Necklace earrings ring bracelet or Jewelry was also used by women in that era. The jewelery and artifacts found suggest that they also used gold. All the ornaments found were still preserved in the museum today. Many more remains have been found in Mohenjodaro. Many sculptures and many items related to their civilization have been found which are still preserved in the museum. All these statues and relics were very important in the history of the world. Many historians and explorers have been involved in its discovery over the years, but still the script of Mohenjodaro and its fall is still a mystery to the world. Even today, no conclusion has been reached as to how such a great city came to an end. The city was destroyed by a crisis of nature, such as floods, or by some earthquake, or by people from other countries invading this city and destroying all the people. History does not even have answers to all these questions. In such old times, there used to be such a developed city, it is a surprise for everyone.
