By Kinta Prasad Juin, JIRAS. Mohenjodaro antiquities nuk an epochmaking discovery in regard to the civilisation of India. I pushes back the begininng of our historical dala !y thousands of year's but it is not sound to consider the Indus civilisation as pre-Aryan or non-Indian. We have reasons to believe that Indus civilisation is a creation of Aryans; whose home was nowhere else than India. To wit in the words of Prof. Humayun Kabir, "tigre have been scholars who doubt whether Mohenjodaro represents a pre Arvan culture at all.

Olcourse the Aryans, who created the high level of civilisation in Indus valley, were not of Vedic pursuasion.
