Thank you rivers!Similar to the civilizations of Mesopotamia, and Egypt, Harappan civilization depended on the rivers for fertile soil and water for agriculture.

Mysteries of Harappan CivilizationAround 1750BCE Harappan civilization declined and eventually disappeared. Declined means things got very bad or worsenedWHY??

Archaeologists think:#1 A nomadic group called the Aryans may have attacked and taken over.#2 Another river called the Sarasvati River dried up. This may have made life in Harappan civilization impossible.The AryansThe Aryans were nomads who herded cows in central India.Around 1500 BCE the Aryans migrated to the Indus river valley and developed a civilization there.
