Ancient India Culture began with one of the first human civilizations, thousands of years ago! It’s true; the ancient culture of India developed rituals, traditions, celebrations and beliefs that are popular in India Culture today. Not all Indian people share the same beliefs, and many different religions are practiced in India, but the fundamental cultural valuesare similar throughout the different states and union territories of India. The ancient Culture of India began more than 5,000 years ago with the Indus Valley Civilizations. The Indus Valley Civilizations of ancient India culture were named as such because they all began along, or near, the Indus River. There were several groups of native people in the Indus River Civilization, the most famous civilization is the Harappan Civilization. The Harappan people lived and flourished around the Indus River, in the western region of South Asia more than 5,000 years ago in what are modern day India and Pakistan. Times have certainly changed since then! This book is a comprehensive, intelligible and interesting portrait of Ancient Indian History and Civilization. This book will be useful to all those interested in ancient cultural history, India, archaeo-astronomy, or spirituality will find this well-researched and cross-cultural work spellbinding and enriching.
