So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth... Genesis 11:8
"The ancient city of Mohenjo Daro, the best preserved city from the
Bronze Age, is located in Pakistan's southern Sindh province. It was a
part of Indus Valley Civilization.....it was one of the world's oldest urban civilizations situated in the
northwestern region of the Indian subcontinent, and consisting of what
is now present-day Pakistan and northwest India......believed
to have had a population of some five million people. One of the most
famous and well-preserved cities of this civilization is Mohenjo Daro.
The inhabitants of this city were skilled urban planners and traders, as
the discoveries made within the city suggests.They
also had a knack for controlling the water of river Indus, and they
built wells and a proper drainage system with bathing areas and flushing
toilets.
Mohenjo Daro means "Mound of the Dead" in Sindhi language. The city's
original name is unknown, but analysis of the city's seal suggests a
possible ancient Dravidian name, Kukkutarma, as stated by the research
paper, The Chronology of Indus Valley Civilization.....the city had a proper writing system, urban centers, and diversified social and economic systems. At its height of development....Following last month's floods, Pakistan is currently one-third under
water. Millions of people have been displaced from their homes and more
than 1,300 people have died. The extensive damage is seen in the
heritage sites across the country too. The ruins of Mohenjo Daro have
been affected as well." Sputnik
