Indus civilization is also called Indus valley civilization or Harappa civilization.
It was not discovered until the 1920’s.These settlements were established along the Indus River some 5000
years ago. These were one of the world's earliest major urban settlements.The Indus civilization is known to have comprised two large cities,
Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro, and more than 100 towns and villages, often of relatively small size but well planned and walled.
Trade and Agriculture were the major sources of their income.
Harappa to have been far larger than once thought, perhaps supporting a population of 50,000 at certain periods

![Page 27: Evolution of civilization](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/58eed3191a28abf47b8b45d1/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The period of new civilization is divided into three phases – Ancient Age
Medieval AgeModern Age

The growth of kingdoms, steel weapons, writings, politics, military, money, etc. were the foundations of the new civilization.
Literacy rate was on the rise with the expansion of Rome.
Roman empire showed how governing could help the new civilization.
Ancient Age

In India, Indus Valley Civilization marks the beginning of the ancient civilization.
In early vedic period, the social order in ancient India enabled members to smoothly climb the ladder of life.
The religion of the Indian origin was very simple and its contributions are evidently high.
The four stages in an individuals life were- Bhramacharya- Grihastha- Vanaprastha and- Sanyasa.
![Page 30: Evolution of civilization](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/58eed3191a28abf47b8b45d1/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
There was also division of classes called “ Varnashrama Dharma”.
The classes were- Brahmin: the one who parts knowledge.- Kshatriyas: the ones defending the society.- Vaisyas: were farmers.- Sudras: the traders• This social order did not imply any
discrimination such as big or small, high or low in its constituents.
![Page 31: Evolution of civilization](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/58eed3191a28abf47b8b45d1/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
The complete life concept called “Chaturvida Purushartha” marked out the Indian society globally.
These fourfold objectives of life are-- Dharma: the universal law- Artha: the wealth- Kama: the desire- Moksha: the salvation

• The later vedic period saw the formation of powerful kingdoms like panchala, kosala, maghada, etc.
• During this period, mauryas and guptas in the north; satavahans, pallavas and cholas in the south of India realized the importance education and established universities like Nalanda, Ujjain, Sarnatha, Ajantha and Taxasila.
• Great scientists like Aryabhatta, Virahamihira, Brahmaguptha and others flourished during this period.
• Establishments like institutions, health-care centers, trade links, etc. were major achievements seen in the ancient age.

It starts with the fall of the Roman Empire and establishment of the Muslim rule in India.
India was under the Muslim rule for over 600years.Hinduism and Islam were however in the opposed
and influenced movements like Sufi among Muslims and Bhakti among the Hindus.
The unity of these two civilizations developed art called “The Indo-Muslim Art”.
Taj Mahal, Qutub Minar, Red Fort, etc. are the examples of such art.
The medieval age formulated and reformulated the socio-economic order to meet the challenges of the changing times.

Scientific inventions and technological revolution is evident in the modern historic period.
Invention of microscope and telescope led to the discovery of other many things.
Advancement in the field of agriculture industry and communication was a major support for the progress of the civilization.
