Great Monuments of India


The history of Indian architecture begins with the earliest known civilization of the Indus Valley. Although archaeology records the existence of Neolithic communities, nomadic hunters, and farmers in northern India from around 7,000 bce, planned settlements and cities only become evident in the cities of Harappa and Mohenjodaro around 2500 bce. This great civilization ended when a nomadic warlike tribe, the Aryans, migrated from Central Asia to northern India and settled down in the fertile plains of the river Ganges.
