Kalibanga
Long before recorded history, many thousands of years ago, there was a city
on the banks of a river called Saraswati. Agriculture flourished here, as did
commerce and the industries of pottery, iron and beads. And then, the mighty
river changed its course and finally dried up due to the immensity of the encroaching
desert. The winds of change buried the city under the sands of time and for
the next four thousand years or more, it lay entombed below the dunes as millenniums
slipped silently by on the hot desert surface. And the ancient city was forever
lost to memory. And then one day in 1962 it was rediscovered as much by accident
as by design. After nearly 5000 years it was dug out from the womb of the earth
near sand bound village in north Rajasthan called Kalibanga.
