History

The Harappan people occupied the Indus Valley for about two thousand years, all without conflict or war!

The Indus Valley civilization was founded at least over five thousand years ago in the area that is now modern-day Pakistan and northern India. The Harappan people lived there in peace by focusing on agriculture, crafting, and trading. This audiobook will discuss how the Harappan built their cities, lived their daily lives, what they believed happened after they died, and so much more!

In this audiobook, you will discover the following:

• The intricate city plans of Mohenjo-daro and other large cities • Ritual bathing at the Great Bath • Where the Harappans came from and where they went • Trade relationships with Mesopotamia, India, and China • Expert bronze statues and artwork • Bead factories and jewelry-making • The mysterious Indus Valley script • Debunking the Aryan invasion theory • Links to modern-day Hinduism • Boats big enough to carry elephants • And so much more!
