Notes:
Civilization Requirements
Surplus production - being able to feed the people lets you build cities
Specialization of labor - trade
Social stratification
Centralized government, shared values (often in religion and writing)
5000 years ago civilizations were associated with river
Why river valleys?
Flat, well watered, floods brought nutrient-rich silt
Indus Valley civilization
Located in the flood plain of the Indus and sarawati rivers
Rivers flooded twice a year
Flourished at around 3000 BCE
Traded with Mesopotamians
Trade cloth for bronze, used seals on their goods
Largest ancient civilization
Over 1500 sites had two major cities: Mohenjo and Harappa
Made of dense, multistory homes constructed out of bricks perpendicular to the streets
Built to catch wind to cool homes
Had a drainage system that carried waste and water in sewer ditches that ran under avenues
- implied there was government but has an unknown authority
Peaceful- barely any weapons and no evidence of war
Around 1750 BCE the civilization declined
Why?
Possibilities:
Over run by Caucasus
Environmental disaster
Major earthquake changed the river course so tributaries dried up -
Is it wrong that I almost jump of excitement when he said Coatzacoalcos just because I'm from there?
-

Why does a youtuber that just makes gameplays and stupid things has more subs than these interesting channel??

too many errors. there were no trace of conquest that destroyed the civilization and the civilization ended due to the droughts. so u r only partially ryt. Aryan Invasion Theory is false
-
There were only 4 Caste system in India - Bhramin, Kshatriya, Vaishya & Shudra(also called as Harijan). Please refer it.

Question to Crash course, what's the oldest civilisation in the world according to evidences?
-
My latin professor, who also teaches ancient greek, told us barbarian came from the ancient greek word for pants. Barbarians are those weirdos who dont wear togas. He mentioned Bar bar bar and said it was pop etymology
-
Because Jesus, that's why I'm alive.
-
Can you please make a video going over the timeline of all other videos and events

It's Saraswati, John Green. I expected you to pronounce that correctly since the Indus valley civilization is your favorite civilization.
