Chapter 15: Mohenjo Daro

The Death Hill Incident in India is a mysterious event called the three natural disasters along with the Tunguska explosion and the apocalypse explosion. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The "Dead Mound" in the Dead Hill incident is the site of the "Mohenjo Daro" in India's history, where investigators found evidence of multiple violent explosions, and all the buildings within a one-square-kilometer radius of the center of the explosion were reduced to powder.

At a distance from the center, many skeletons were found. From the posture of the skeleton, it can be seen that the catastrophe of death came suddenly, and people were unaware of it.

These bones contain strange levels of radiation comparable to those of the victims of the nuclear attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Not only that, but the researchers were surprised to find that the rubble field after the burning of the ancient city looked very similar to Hiroshima and Nagasaki after the atomic bombing, and there were still traces of shock waves and nuclear radiation on the ground.

In 1922, Indian archaeologist Banalj discovered this ancient ruin on a small island in the Indus River. Judging from the ruins, it was originally a city, but it seems that it suddenly destroyed one day 3,500 years ago.

What's going on here? People have been puzzled by this for years, so they have given the city a strange name: Mohenjo Daro, which means "Valley of Death".

How exactly was Mohenjo Daro destroyed? After extensive field investigations, scientists have proposed several possibilities such as floods, plagues, and foreign invasions.

In addition, the British scientist Jevon Boer and the Italian scientist Vincenti also put forward an astonishing hypothesis: the city of Mohenjo Daro was attacked by a nuclear bomb!

They believe that although the city was built on a river island with an abundant water source, no signs of flooding have been found. On the contrary, there are signs that there was a large-scale fire in the area.

The two scholars analyzed a number of detailed issues, especially the large quantities of molten clay and mineral fragments in the ruins. Experiments carried out at the University of Rome and in the laboratories of the Italian National Research Society have shown that they are melted at temperatures of up to 14,000 C to 15,000 C.

Under the conditions of productivity at that time, such high temperatures could only be formed in the forging furnaces of the smelting workshop, and the large presence of molten clay and mineral fragments could never be formed in a small number of forging furnaces.

In addition, traces of an explosion were found in the city of Mohenjo Daro, where buildings were razed to the ground. Outwards from this centre, the farther away you are, the less damaged it is, while in the most marginal areas the buildings are almost intact. This is very similar to what happened after the atomic bombing.

In the ancient Indian Sanskrit narrative poem "Mahabharata", there is the following description of war......

…… It was as if the power of nature had burst forth all at once. The sun is spinning. The flames of the weapon caused the earth to burn. The elephant was burned by the fire and ran to escape this terrible disaster. The river boiled, the beasts died, the enemies fell one by one, and the corpses were in disarray. Horses and chariots were burned, and the entire battlefield was in the aftermath of the conflagration. There was a deathly silence on the sea, the wind rose, and the earth lit up. It is truly a gruesome picture, the bodies of the deceased were mutilated and deformed by the terrible fire. We have never seen or heard of such a weapon......

The horrific scenes described in the poem have led many to associate this weapon with a nuclear bomb. Some even believe that Mohenjo Daro was destroyed by aliens.

However, the theory that scientists most agree with at present is the lightning destruction theory. Many scientists believe that it was the mysterious black lightning that destroyed Mohenjo Daro.

Black lightning evolved from a rare ball lightning. In general, they are small in size and extremely low in brightness, like a black mist containing huge amounts of energy.

When they gather, they emit poisonous gases and are particularly prone to explosions. As long as a black lightning bolt explodes, it can cause a series of explosions, producing a high temperature of 15,000 degrees Celsius in an instant.

The damage caused by the explosion was similar to that caused by the city of Mohenjo Daro, and the excavated artifacts in Mohenjo Daro showed that they had been subjected to temperatures of 14,000-16,000 degrees.

Therefore, the truth is likely to be this: black lightning is formed in the atmosphere, and at the same time, a large amount of toxic substances are produced to poison the air. The inhabitants of the ancient city were tormented by the poisonous air for a while, and then the black lightning suddenly exploded, creating a heat high enough to melt the stones, and then the shock wave reached the ground and destroyed the city.

Since Mohenjo Daro is already a long way ago, the Death Hill incident can only be roughly speculated. However, it is worth noting that the ancient city of Mohenjo Daro 5,000 years ago is similar to the modern urban structure!

In 1922, archaeologists unearthed this massive ancient city while exploring a 2nd-century stupa AD.

The wide main street is crossed by north-south and east-west, and the buildings on both sides are equidistant recessed for nighttime lighting. The affluent area has the world's first known bidet toilets, separate kitchens and sewage systems.

All buildings are simple and functional, not only in line with the minimalist concept of modern architecture, but also with a focus on privacy. There are no doors and windows in the buildings facing the street, and the doors and windows can only be seen after entering the alley.

The buildings in the city are all brick structures and are caulked with stucco. If it is covered with tiles, it is almost a modern town, not inferior to any town in the South Asian subcontinent.

Almost all of the world's oldest cultural sites are graves and religious buildings, which are awe-inspiring. Mohenjo Daro presents a state of life, which makes people feel that the city has always been "alive".

The ancient city is divided into upper and lower castles, and the upper castle is a high castle with a cloister, which contains a council hall and a royal palace. There is a large bath on the southwest side, and the steps on both sides lead to the bottom.

The baths are surrounded by water wells, changing rooms and sewage outlets, and are designed to incorporate the essential elements of today's five-star hotel swimming pools. When it comes to enjoying life, the ancients are in no way inferior to modern people.

The commercial district of the lower town has the oldest shops in the world, and there is also a weighing department nearby, which is the equivalent of the industrial and commercial supervision agency......

The excavated stones, weights, gold, silver, agate, etc., outline the social conditions of the time. The red patterns on the clay pottery, the patterns of cows, elephants and crocodiles on the seals, and various clay figurines, like a primitive documentary, convey the living conditions of the ancestors.

Among all the relics, the bronze dancing girl and the stone man are the most representative. The dancers wear exaggerated necklaces and bracelets, with their heads crossed and their eyes in all directions. The stone man has a beard on his face, and his left shoulder is diagonally draped over an embroidered robe, and his expression is so calm that it is difficult to fathom. The two figures move and stillness, forming a strong contrast.

In Harappa in the upper reaches of the Indus River, there is an ancient city of the same age as the "Dead Hill", and the two ancient cities are collectively known as the Harappan civilization. The lifeblood of civilization is the meandering Indus River, which brings fertile land and abundant water to thriving cities.

The Harappan civilization lasted for more than a thousand years, and suddenly declined around 1750 BC. During that time, the Indus River flooded, agricultural harvests plummeted, and the ancient city was gradually abandoned.

It is also possible that it was caused by foreign invasions, as the book Kuliveda mentions that the Aryans clashed with the indigenous populations near the Indus River when they entered South Asia from Europe, and perhaps it was war and killing that led to the city's demise.
