Description

Scientists have discovered the ruins of an ancient city Dwarika off the coast of India in the Marine archeology in the Gulf of Khambhat - earlier known as Gulf of Cambay an inlet of the Arabian Sea on the W coast of India. Artifacts from the city have been carbon dated to about 9,500 years ago. The remains of what has been described as a huge lost city may force historians and archaeologists to radically reconsider their view of ancient human history. To put the significance of such a find in view, the oldest human cities are about 7,000 years old, and the oldest Indian city is Harappa, about 4,600 years old. The Cambay ruins really predate the oldest known human city by more than two thousand years and the oldest Indian city by nearly 5,000 years. The consequences of this, if true, may indeed be huge, as there may be a massive chronological problem in this discovery. It means that the whole model of the origins of civilization with which archaeologists have been working will have to be remade from scratch.It does not take long, however, for the entire story to begin to unravel once a critical eye it turned towards the claims. I always like to consider the credibility of such claims. In this case, finding a city older than any previously known city is not entirely doubtful. It is possible that a culture in one location developed a city which did not survive and was forgotten to history. The oldest example of anything is always only as old as the oldest example discovered, and so scientists are frequently pushing back the date of the "oldest" something as new discoveries are made.Like most scientific discoveries made in a discipline that is already well developed, new discovery tends to deepen knowledge or provide further context, but rarely overturn well-established facts. This would be an interesting new piece to the puzzle of ancient human history but could be little more than a side note as far as other ancient civilizations are concerned.However, the new find does stretch credibility, as it seems now reliable that there was a civilization capable of building a massive city thousands of years earlier than anywhere else for any part of the world except India.
