CIVILIZATION |

Harappan culture maintained a
continuity and uniformity that is unparalleled in cultures up to that
date. The cities were the best planned of the era, with wide
streets and excellent sewage systems. There was a uniformity of
arts, crafts, weights and measures throughout the region. Such an
organized civilization could not have so easily been taken over, nor
could its cultural traditions, particularly its language, be very
easily changed, much less eradicated.
It was originally proposed that the Harappan culture was ended
abruptly by the Aryan invaders. Evidence however revealed that the
sites were abandoned rather than destroyed, along with major
ecological changes in the region, with shifting rivers, floods, and
desertification of parts of the region, along with the drying up of
the Sarasvati river which we have already noted. Unfortunately most
historians, particularly from the West, did not know of the
importance of the Sarasvati in Vedic literature and merely treated
it as a forgotten river to everyone.
