What do you think about extinction of Indus Valley Cilvilization

With that aside, the IVC was pretty damn interesting for a civilization. With working plumbing and large cities for it's time, and having an estimated 5-10 million people around the 2000 BCE era.
The most likely theory it completely fell apart and was replaced by the newer Indo-Aryan cultures was probably climate change. According to the theory, the Indus region was significantly greener and tamer at the time the IVC thrived. Due to such things as change in monsoon regions and droughts and the likely violence and migration as a result, the IVC would slowly die out.

Actually, I meant an estimated population of 2-10 million in range. Sorry.

Archaeologists have found evidence indicating that the IVC didn't actually conduct warfare on a large scale. So, incidentally, one of the leading theories on their disappearance is invasion.

There's more proof that they fell from global warming then this desu. It matches the time of the changing atmosphere perfectly.

Probably bad farming practices combined with a change in the climate.

climate change :^)

>leading theory is invasion
Nah, thats the old aryan invasion theory. Modern geological data shows that its much more likely the droughts and climate change slowly destroyed their civilization over centuries

The migration from aryan might have actually saved the Indus Valley civilization (informs of religions like Buddhism/Jainism/yoga )
