Mehrgarh...The Lost Civilization

Re: # 98

So are you proud of your Hindu heritage?
Yes or no is what I was looking for.
If yes, what about Hindu heritage that
makes you proud?

most major castes in south India still bury their dead. In Karnataka major castes like vokkaliga, lingayat, kuruba.. all bury their dead. Some castes bury the dead in a cross legged sitting position

shishapa,

Do you think Kitas Raj mentioned in my post that you selectively quoted with malafide intent is representative of Martian culture?

Nobody asked you to worship the past… During renaissance Europe got out of the abrahamic straightjacket and learnt from the more intellectually open times of the past.

Mahfari,

There are several places in my area and some of them on my land with great potential for excavation. They are about seven hundred years old. Are you interested in these kinds of sites?. I have several of the artifacts which I dug up many years ago. My favorite one is “surumcho” i.e eyeliner tool

Re: # 90Thank you very much for appreciation , as to question of tis vanishing, will discuss it spearately and hope to wrtie more on these topics.
thx again!

Re: # 83 This article is an efort to understand past, but to say Reniassance by worshipping past, it is as absurd idea as to ressurect old Greece. Phonexis rise only in stories not in realities. New things will create Renaisssance. not idle worship of past.Think new!

Re: # 43 what about genies of Hunduvata in India?

Re: # 27 I did,nt flag it .

Re: # 61

". just like we are proud of our Mughal, sikh and British heritage."

Is there nobody left in Pakistan proud of
their Hindu heritage? Not even remaining
hindus? Is "we" all of Pakistanis or just
Pakistani muslims?
So average muslim in Pakistan is just like
a hindu fanatic who disowns any muslim
heritage in India?

Mahmood Saheb:

Thanks for a very informative article.

It appears that there is a continuity of civilization from Mehargarh and Mohenjodaro, as shown by the similarity of figurines, etc. Is it possible that the Indus Valley civilization disappeared for the same reason as Mehargarh, namely, because conditions became unsuitable for human living?

A word about Hindus and burial. While Hindus do cremate their dead as a rule, there are exceptions even today. I am aware of some communities, such as Nadars of Tamil Nadu who bury their dead.

Thanks Ijaz for your valuable input. It is regrettable that the article is not getting more interacts like yours and seems to be getting mired in the usual India-Pak mudslinging.

83 Ananth garu,

I am a fellow gulti

Guys,

Sparring apart- we desis are horrible when it comes to cherishing and preserving our natural and cultural heritage. The real danger is that by the time these nations are wealthy and educated enuff to appreciate their true worth, they may well have vanished. Hopefully things will change and it wudnt come to such a pass.

Regards

PS: Ages since I enjoyed a proper derby!!!

Re: # 83

Rest assure we celebrate our rich past ... Gandhara and Mohenjodaro more so than anything else.

How about you stopping Hindu fascists from destroying historical buildings because a "god" was born there first and then advise us on our rich past.
