DWARKA: The Sunken City of Krishna
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ก.ค. 2024
- The submergence of the lost city of Dwarka (a.k.a. Dvaraka) is a well-known legend from India, stemming from the Mahabharata. Like Atlantis, the story says that Dwarka sank beneath the sea at some point in the ancient past. Some people think this is a historical event that occurred in the early Vedic period. Others say it happened at the end of the ice age. Some think it never happened at all. In this video, Dr. Miano investigates the claims made by the Ancient Astronaut Archive channel and by Graham Hancock, and looks into the archaeological excavations that have been done in Gujarat to see if there is any truth behind the tale.

I travelled to India 20 years ago, and visited some amazing sites, including the incredible Mamallapuram. The memory has has stayed with me ever since, I will never forget it. I love learning more about India's history, mythology and culture. This was an excellent video, thank you!
I believe it is now called Mahabalipuram and I strongly recommend a visit for anyone traveling to Tamil Nadu!
Not sure what what you wrote has to do with the video.

Learned a lot in this one David. I’m more and more interested in Indian history. Great job!
Thanks, Matt!
@@WorldofAntiquity Can you vouch for Ancient Architects as a trustworthy ancient history channel? That is, dealing in fact not fantasy.
@@davidmurphy563 The only channel I can vouch for is my own. But even I may get things wrong at times. Ancient Architects seems to care about getting things right, but I am sure even he would say that he has said things in the past he no longer holds to be true.
@@WorldofAntiquity That's fair. It can be hard as a layman with a casual interest to determine if you're being sold hogwash. I always look out for channels which say when they're not sure or take the time to correct errors. Only the deluded trade in certainty.
I think it was the title being a little too reminiscent of ancient astronauts that set alarm bells unfairly perhaps. I'll give it a go.
If you want to learn amazing thing's then watch video's made by Praveen Mohan.
Personally I think that there is always a kernel of truth in ancient stories, the truth may only slightly resemble the story but it is always there. If nothing else stories like stories like that of Dwarka give archeologists place to start and some thing to look for.
Isn’t what you wrote applicable to literally any story and historical claim? The question is how small are these “kernels”.
@@StopFear bro just stop , commenting ignorance everywhere isn't gonna give you nothing,there hasn't been much archeology done on the sites of maha bharata but still randomly we find ancient weapons dated back to that period or before and also about dwaraka ,i don't know the source but some archeologist found something in the underwater remains of dwaraka which matches the description in hindu scriptures, reply if you want source (I'll have to find it ,i watched it 1yr back🥲)

Thank you Dr Miano.
There was a tremendous amount of researching that went into this response, I hope it was worthwhile.

I want to post before i watch this time. I really want to say massive thanks and sincere respect to David for taking time out of his day to answer my questions in a very kind and patient way. That means a lot to me. I always say to the "ancient tech" folks that you have to understand academic history before you can form a alternative...that is what i am trying to do. Thank you again David....respect, peace and success to you.
Thank you, Darren. That's much appreciated!
@@WorldofAntiquity Thank you for your reply David, i am very much looking forward to your History Matters book. As i said, in over a decade on YT your channel is the first i have become a patreon to. That is the should tell you regard i hold this channel in...peace to ya.
"O Krishna, thy kin shall meet the same ignoble end as my sons did, thy kingdom be destroyed like mine" thundered Gandhari upon learning the fate of her sons.
Pandavas and Krishna stood moot, shocked as Gandhari hurled the curse at lord Krishna.
The war was over, the curse lived on, coiled like a snake; waiting patiently for its chance to strike.
And so it came to pass; thirty six years after the great battle of Kurukshetra, there was a a celebration at the golden kingdom of Dwarka.
Intoxicated with wine and power; Krishna's sons fought each other to death as their father looked on helplessly.
But the curse was not yet done, it sprung forth again disguised as a giant Tsunami, struck the Kingdom and wiped it off the map, never to be seen again.
Kali Yuga had begun!
So accurate when u explain it so plainly in English
Spitting literature isn't gonna help here
This was completely new for me. Very interesting indeed. Thank you for the links to the archaelogical works. I am looking forward for digging into them.
Thank You for these videos. My personal life is messed up and I can hardly sleep at night. But your videos help me to get my mind off of the daily anxieties & deep dive into a different world altogether. I am a data scientist now but was always a fan of history & archaeology in high school, so I find these things extremely interesting and it soothes my mind when I am unable to fall asleep. Thank You. 😊
Aw, I'm happy to know that!
Hang in there brother. Many people have messed up personal lives. You're not alone.
I found it very helpful to find a good therapist when going through the same thing…can take some “shopping” but the right therapist really turned things around for me.
@@jonnywatts2970 to say it precisely, most people have messed up lives, be it personal or professional, because we are living in a messed up society and world.
@@deepakmusinada5011 I couldn't agree more. It seems we are determined to destroy ourselves.
“Let’s see what Hancock has to say”
This should be good.
If you assume that Krishna gave a week's warning to Arjuna to evacuate Dwarka, then that would make sense as you said that no one was harmed and everyone had resettled. The claim of it being a "sudden" rise in sea level is strange and has no evidence. I'd say that it was probably predicted by observation considering the fact that dwarka was an ancient port city and that would go with Krishna's 7 days early warning.
This is an interesting subject and I hope archaeological research is continued
Probably a slow but devastating flood
@brenton thacker i meant flood from nearby salt plane/ swamps geography of gujrat is little weird ofcourse i actually don't know what happened
In Mahabharata clan of yadu ( which shri krishna belonged to ) was going through a brutal civil war which was so devastating that every children of Krishna died in that war, when Arjuna arrived at dwarka to save women and children he was relentlessly attacked by abira clan who are called Mleech or barbarians by Arjuna. Dwarka might've been under siege by opposing parties of yadu clan or abiras. Arjuna had arrived with army but still wasn't successful in complete evacuation and many women and children ended up getting kidnapped. Maybe these attacks or sieges made it almost impossible for proper evacuation of people and property.
Gr8 video mate, refreshing to get some straight more accurate information for a change. Thank you for your work
Only close to 2 percent of India has been archaeologically explored and excavated. Shameful though.
Because they dont want to burst the bubble that the middle east is the origin of civilisation.....
I live in Bhubaneswar, we’ve lost the ancient city of Sishupalgarh from the time of Ashoka to modern development.
Thanks you Dr.Miano, criminally underrated channel.
Thank you so much for taking the time to do this. I was completely ignorant about the Harrapan period excavation and because of the problems with how the artifacts were brought to the surface (I didn't realize just how obviously they were natural gravel and nothing man made) I mistakenly thought that no research was being done. I would also like to point out that the original research team looking at the sonar scan and seeing the remains of a city being the result of paradoelia considering that I still have to keep reminding myself that rock formation on Mars isn't a pyramid and I admit that I sometimes feel disappointed that it isn't a pyramid.
Just brilliant, thank you so much! The most comprehensive objective and rational presentation of the existence of Dwarka. Really enjoyed it.
didn't have time for this yesterday. super excited to sit down and watch this one over lunch.
David, love your passion for the subject and how deep you go. Really appreciate your efforts in bringing visibility to Indian history.
I just love this channel. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and filling in the gaps for us.
Aw, thanks. I am glad you are enjoying the videos, Melissa!
Dr Miano your excellent deep diving into real facts sinks so many crazy myths. Keep blowing those bubbles! Thanks again.
superb commentary, as usual. Ancient Astronaut channel is a bit nutty, but Dr. Milano does a good job of separating the chaff from the wheat.
Fantastic stuff. Visited khambhat, Bharuch, Lothal, Dwaraka and Dholavira a few months ago. It's been a long time since any archaeological digs have been done in many of these places. Egs, spoke with some of the local labor who were brought in for the last dig in Dholavira - it was done 17 years ago! Large portion of the site is still to be investigated and it is hella expensive for such large scale digs apart from dealing with insane govt bureaucracy. I've also seen some satellite pics of the area and there are multiple embankments around the site which haven't been investigated yet.. ! Extremely promising stuff...
This is what irritates me, you know. The government has funds for propagating their agenda, but not for these important excavations, the finds from which could very well change some of the estimates for timelines
@@honeybeemoo Well, let me put it this way. If you drive some sense of ownership of history with its current people, the justification for funding large scale digs would be a lot easier. Agenda/propaganda is fine as long as you get the money to dig and allow freedom to analyse sites scientifically without interference. Sadly enough, even for grants from universities and other institutions require people to justify how the dig fits/fulfills their agenda or ideology. Govts aren't usually smart with language so you know to call agenda or ideology when you see it but for private institutions, which are smarter, the same thing is covered as philosophy or policy. Same stuff.
@@santoshkathira Well, that's just sad and disappointing

It is a later book. Also, the word prasada means something like a Mansion more than a palace.

The dwarka in the epic is described as having a lot of jewels the items we have found in the dwarka are mentioned in the Mahabharata imagine if the evacuation still continued we might have founded a lot of jewels and probably Krishna's crown
Yes, although gold, silver, and jewels often get added to stories to embellish them.

If we think on a simple way, that in the texts there was a city called Dwaraka which was destroyed/ submerged by sea, and now we found evidence of a city under the sea, moreover no other similar incidents related to submerging of a city have been mentioned anywhere.... so it is 70-80% indicating towards Dwaraka.
but it was made of gold and we didn't find any gild there Could be just city of indus valley civilization time
@@mariusandersons bro it's not possible to make a huge city only using gold.... If there is mentioned that dwarka was gold City, it means just not that a city constructed using gold.... It can be a city with prosperity..

@@rupendrasharma6291 bro we cannot make a city with gold thats impossible by gold city they may meaned prosperity
@@mariusandersons dwarka was made of jewels right, is it made of gold?
Wow , didn't knew you have covered dwarka as well , thank you so much. 🙏❤️
Thank you! This is the best summary of the ancient city of Dwarka. Well done!
On what basis do you make that claim? I mean, whose research do you take as the definitive against which other claims are measured?
We r looking forward eagerly n confidently for more information of Dwarka in the days to come!!
"Ancient History Matters" - I love that show, like when Urkel accidentally burned down the Library of Alexandria.
Mahabharat text contains information related to submergence of dwaraka and how people were moved to different location. Interesting.
If one wishes to keep records of what happened, n explained according to their cultural lingo, its not really interesting. People kinda did keep records. Not all record keeping back then was always the best method. Papyrus fades, clay weather's away, stone lasts a bit longer but fades away eventually. Metal's like bronze, cooper, lead, ect seems to be the best for it.
Best channel under 100k! You’re about to blow up!
Amazing as always!!
I read Underworld several years ago, including data about diving on these ruins. Now this video explains that . the story is much more complicated than i thought. My mind tends to "cut and dry" whatever I've read or watched and "put it away" as if it is "settled", which I now see is very far from true.
That's the trouble with the real world. It's almost never so simple.
Do you have any tips for finding a scientific literature on a specific topic or area? Or is it just Google skills? Sometimes I find it quite hard to find good information in the sea of conspiracy websites. I'm always impressed by the amount of papers you find.
I don't know if you've seen my video on scholarly articles, but at the end I make a few suggestions: th-cam.com/video/tN0KkHBcIWo/w-d-xo.html If you are looking for something specific and need assistance, let me know!
id go with the fishermen on the dwarka site.... of course they will have in depth... accurate information, if you have big balls id go like Graham hancock and take a dive.... i am afraid of water and deep water at that, so rob its up to you to dive it.... A million sites will only give you second hand information... Dive it, hit the settlement and you will find out if its real or not, i find it impossible they can fake an underwater settlement a km or more out to sea... so this is legit... is it Atlantis? Doubt it... becaue atlantis was on the mediterranean.
Another great video - thanks - I'm slowly getting through them. I'd already read the academic papers you mentioned regarding Dwarka / Bet Dwarka - remarkably prosaic compared with Hancock's version from 'Underworld' (as his book was called in Britain). Still, I enjoyed them both.

Dwarka as per the texts was built on reclaimed land from sea on God Krishna's request. Hence when Krishna left the Earth, the sea reclaimed the land. The sunken city is few kms into the sea where the modern day Dwarka is situated.
Yea yea, very scientific.
@@StopFear she's not telling you scientific proofs.... She's just telling the story mention in Mahabharata....
@@StopFearwhat is your problem??
it is said that story of atlantis is based on the city of Dwarka, people say when the greeks came to India to study in takshashila(one of the oldest university) they herd about Dwarka and thus the story spread in Greece. Dwarka is about 4000 years old. Plato wrote about Atlantis only around 360 B.C., that is, much later.
I think the only plausible explanation for the striking similarities is that Plato heard about Dwarka and based his imaginary Atlantis on Dwarka
makes sense
The Greeks didn’t have a secure contact with India until ~40 years after Plato
possible...i believe most of things we term today as mythology was actually those civilizations which had disappeared
Or you can say it's just opposite bcz Homer's lliad exist even before Greeks came to India and so may they brought it to india and also these story found in india after the end of maurya dynasty and actually when shunga dynasty begin.
During maurya dynasty ,greek lost to Maurya's , and not allow to settle but when pushyamitra killed last maurya king ,Greeks were settled in whole north west of Indian subcontinent while shunga's in other side .
And only after that all god in india born .
Also intially lliad and mahabharat contain same number of shloka and only a story about war but later thousands of sholla added in mahabharata ,which is written In mahabharat.
Also mahabharat has more number of character while lliad had less.
And more number of character can only be possible when they were added later.
Take a example like in movies series ,when 2nd or 3rd part came ,they have more number of chracter than the first part.
So if Greeks would of have copied then they should have all the story of Krishna Sudama etc but they actually not.
So obviously it's opposite than what you thinking.
@@NN94887 Lol what? Mahabharata was written way before Illiad. And orally transmitted way before, get your facts right
Wow! Very interesting all your contents are. I subscribed.

Yes, Krishna lived more than 5300 years ago and Rama avatar lived more than 20 thousand years ago and was also known as king of Ayodhya. So, placing Krishna into later period is a mistake itself. Starting of the Kali Yuga knows well every decent Indian. Graham Hancock was right.
My Grandmother used to tell me stories of Dwarka sinking, as she didn't knew Dwarka exists even today.
It look's & seems logical that city keeps shifting as the coast keeps shifting.
And based on milankovitch cycle, we are moving towards warmer earth, so sea level is rising since the ice ages.

Thank you sir. I’ve learned about Egypt, Mesopotamia, Rome etc, famous ancient civilisations, and pre-history, through your channel, and other creators. However this video serves as my introduction to ancient Indian history & myth. I seem to be heading east in my learning journey. With India, where do you start? Here’s as good a place as any, as someone who had no prior knowledge of the Harappen period or ancient India at all. There’s something particularly engaging about seeing a fraud like Hancock exposed (again) while learning something new at the same time. As for the other fella, he sounded pretty legit, good voice, right up until the “craft attacking from orbit”, it caught me off guard I lost it 🤣
Read Bhagwad Gita and you will find many information about Krishna.
definitely dont listen to a european for indian history lol
@@hanzoY248 The creator is American not European. You can view his citations/historiographical sources in the description - this list includes a number of top Indian experts. It may be unfamiliar for TH-cam, but World of Antiquity is a great example of what we call a Historian with capital H. Unlike many of the bullshit amateur creators on these topics this man is a professional; a legitimate academic, properly citing respected domain experts.
While I was taking a Buddhist study group years ago, one of the people leading it mentioned something interesting.
In ancient India they didn't really have a word for the concept of infinity. So they would use very large numbers to communicate the feeling of numbers so vast they are incomprehensible.
Also, texts that come from this time often have numbers that once held a specific spiritual significance. This meaning may have to do with the number of virtues, like in Buddhism we have the 4 Noble Truths. In Judeo Christian traditions the number 40 is repeated a lot. Some of these numbers had meanings in ancient times almost like words.
Kind of like a persons last name might be Cooper or Wright or Smith. But if you know history, those are all professions. So their name has two meanings, the general and the specific.
OM literally means infinity, and dont forget 0 was discovered by indian
Dear Professor, another amazing video.
I found this video valuable 🤗 thank you!!
Thanks again, Dr. Miano. For some unknown reason, the thought of the supposed finds in the Gulf of Khambat crossed my mind this evening. Then, Lo and behold, this video comes up on my feed. Synchronicity. I must confess that I am a fan of Hancock's books, but I consider them a form of Romantic fiction and purely for entertainment only. The Lost Civilization and, more so, the Ancient Alien movements seem to me to be secular fundamentalist religions demanding literal interpretations and conspiracies to create a persecution complex, while the "theory", proclaimed as fact, provides some kind of "gnosis". Only the true believers are "in the know," while "Academia" plays the role of the corrupt priesthood.
Responding to your question toward the end, I’m not saying they are smoking guns beyond doubt, but the features I find impressive and hard to explain on some of the dredged artifacts are the holes, the apparent lathing and the polishing. That one object was apparently lathed and had a hole apparently drilled lengthwise (almost looked phallic lol).
As a manufacturer and former toolmaker the history of manufacturing and toolmaking is a subject near to my heart. It gives me a somewhat different perspective on certain things, like lathes, than others may have.
A potter’s wheel is a lathe. In modern terms a normal potter’s wheel is a vertical faceplate lathe. A lump of wet clay to anchor the workpiece is the ancient equivalent of the adhesive chucks we still use today for faceplate workholding.
Any workpiece held in the lathe can be center drilled without the use of any layout tools and requires only something to hold the drill in place. Romans did it with scaffolding and a hole the same size as the drill bored through a beam laying on top of the scaffolding.
And, crucially, you don’t need hard tools to turn something on a slow lathe. The central factors determining the need for hard tools are timeline and heat dissipation. All you need to turn stone on a slow lathe is something moderately hard and appropriately shaped.
I’m not saying they did this at Dwarka, but any culture that has thrown pottery also has everything necessary to turn and center drill stone.
@@StoneInMySandal bro he just means how can a deer shaped object be natural!it just dont make sense
@@zalayashpalsinh5427it isn’t really deer shaped, it just kinda looks like a deer a little. If he had held the artifact up without telling you he thought it was a deer you’d have never called it a deer
I will say a bit about the anchors, just because the anchors found are Medieval doesn't mean the city is, anchors are not infrequently lost and left behind, so all that says on its own is that the area has been underwater since at least the Medieval period. Now, if there's a lack of any anchors predating that, then that's more support that it wasn't submerged much longer than the Medieval, but absence of evidence of not evidence of absence, while losing anchors isn't uncommon, it's not impossible for the water to have submerged the area and ships to have simply not lost anchors, ships to have not anchored in that area, or us to not have found anchors, say due to them being buried under too much silt. I'm generally willing to accept the dating, but I would find it far from unlikely for later evidence to be found pushing the dates back.
Good point.
I sometimes wonder if Hancock really believes everything he says, or if he's more interested in selling a good story.
He is a journalist who demands to be treated as a scholar, yet cries 'I'm only a journalist' when his scholarship is questioned. He definitely knows what he is doing, even if his fans are blind to it.
He claims “academics have books to sell and lecture tours to make money off of...” and so does he.
The Climate cycles of our water planet as determined by the Galactic Milankovitch cycles are continental glaciers with lower sea levels (Dwarka, Atlantis's) brought on by East to West Global Tsunami's (Younger Dryas, Gobekli tepe) every 13,000 years half the Precessional/Great Year/Yuga cycles) when our solar system crosses over our galaxies Electromagnetic/Gravitational Plane/Equator. It takes Millenia to cross the Galactic plane and EM plasma Bursts, E-W global tsunami's will gradually get worst for 500 years until we start heading out of the galactic plane.
In the MILLENIA it takes for our solar system to cross the galactic plane we are going to experience EM plasma bursts, Asteroid impacts due to crossing the galaxies Kuiper's belt, and East to West Global Tsunami's from the increased EM/gravity while crossing over the galactic plane.
The last time we crossed over the galaxies equator was the Younger Dryas layer or When Gobekli tepe was buried under 15 meters of 19 sedimentary layers covering 9 hectares spanning MILLENIA.
There are 7-26,000 year precession cycles in one 240,000 year rotation of the Galactic bulge Eccentricity cycle. There are 4 60,000 year quadrants in the obliquity/magnetic north global warming/cooling cycle in accordance to our position relative the galactic bulge. Perihelion with the galactic bulge is when magnetic north is at it's maximum 24.5 degrees inclination.
Noah's flood is not the precession/Great Year/Yuga cycles flood. It will be the reflooding of the Mediterranean when the silt dam at the strait of Gibraltar breaks called the Zanclean flood.
Covid like CO2 is a LIE strawman built upon an INCONVENIENT truth. The Baby Boomers who were born en mass 75 years ago are starting to die from the usual suspects of seasonal FLu/Pneumonia and old age. The covidiot mask of the BEAST is just a pretext for the final solution Vaccine of the beast. No Buying or Selling with out the mask/mark of the beast. Revelations 13 16-18. This has all happened before some 12,000 years ago.
Jesus loved all races because there is only one race the HUMAN race with only one minority the INDIVIDUAL human. Your being divided to be conquered by the DNA family.

Hello in there.
I'm just at 7.49 , where you just mentioned there was no mention of spacecraft. But in the contrary in the fight between Narakasura, Banasura and Krishna it was mentioned. Also puranas, Ramayana and Mahabharata had mentions of Vimana (spacecrafts) belonged to different kings and devas and asuras.
A Vimana was not a spacecraft. It was a flying palace or chariot.
@@WorldofAntiquity In Hindi, Bengali and other languages which are originated from Sanskrit, Vimana or Vimaan (Biman in bengali) means spacecraft or more specifically aeroplane. It's a common term we use in a daily basis.
@@mukherjee4u Today. Not back then.
@@WorldofAntiquity I finished your video, it was really informative and very well described. Makes lots of sense.
Regarding the Vimana topic, I guess you are mentioning Chariot because you are referencing to Pushpak Vimana. Back then when people thought about flying objects which can carry people around (aircraft) they could only thought about flying chariots as those were the only fast moving car back then. But whatever the shape is by Vimana they definitely meant aircraft.

2022 archeologists finds whole ancient city dwarka under water 🕉
Binge watching your channel... Great videos.
I enjoyed this video. I rarely see anything on the history of India.
Nice to see, for a change, someone who doesn't make a big deal of how supposedly hard to pronounce foreign words are.
Good video! Thank you.
Almost 35K Subs!!! 100K is not far off!
Thank you for this video! 🙏 Learned something new today, never heard of this city before...
Thanks a lot . I was believing that it was 100% correct that they had found Dwarka. I live in Brazil, Porto Alegre.
The thing is Dwarka was ancient port and submerged in water due to rising sea levels. Dwarka was not looked like which mentioned in Mahabharata.
Great clip good share sir
Looking at the artifacts from the Khambat "excavation," the one does look similar to ritual phalluses I've seen from Israeli archaeology, so I wouldn't dismiss that as made by human beings. But even then, as you rightly point out, there is no evidence for how old that is or how it got to the site, so it could very well be much more recent and just lost in a shipwreck, or over the side of a ship, or something else could have lead to be being there. But most of it looks like rocks you'd expect to find underwater.
I was sort of an armature paleontologist (got in the news paper for it, and traveled to gravel pits), those are fossilized sponges or corral, you'd be amazed at the strange shapes that life has taken over the half a billion years of evolution. The sponges often have holes through them to increase waterflow, as they're filter feeders.
At least one of the “artifacts” from Khambhat looks like a sea cucumber fossil. That would be considerably older than their target date, I think.
i'ne never heard of this! this is awesome
This channel is a great service to reality.
Thank you!
You must make a video on Hampi. It has musical instrument made out of stone pillars .( musical pillars of Hampi)
His using the footage from Bahubali as he describes Dwarka is priceless. 😅
Doc, the truth is just so much better than the fictions. Thank you for having this channel. Thank you for doing this work. I’m going to join the Patreon once I get paid in about 24 hours.
Thank you, Tammi!
@@WorldofAntiquity done and done. Again Doc, it’s just so much more fascinating and satisfying to me, to learn the truth. The human species is absolutely incredible, and we’ve been able to do amazing things. I’m on a fixed income, but I have become a patron at the level that I can afford.
Very good Sir .. That was interesting I agree with the artifact's not presented properly.. quite convincing
.. that was about Dwarka ... In the Graham Hancock video he also presented the Tamilnadu( South India) coast.. finds.. like the top of a temple that was found buried under the beach.... And aswell some Ruins found way far off the coast... Could you do that please ..also can you Sir please try to get your videos translated to Hindi language just to get the attention of the Indian audience.. your channel is so informative and without stating anything.. you make us think.. which is amazing.. Am sure you will get alot the Indian audience... Really Appreciate....
I will check out the Tamilnadu evidence. I can't afford to pay anyone to translate right now, but maybe in future.
@@WorldofAntiquity it is the lost shore temple of Malibalipuram (SP?) located just south of Chennai - it is offshore from the national park housing numerous stone temples and carvings. I have visited several times and am always impressed. The tsunami exposed some of the offshore structures that had been buried in sand. Legend has it that there were seven temples extending eastward with most lost to the sea. Definitely worth exploring!
I have a friend whose father is neck deep in Graham Hancock BS and keeps feeding it to her. She approached me (a history student) for an alternate perspective. Do you have any tips as to how I might get through to her? The father is probably a lost cause, but she is clearly somewhat sceptical.
My strategy is basically to tackle the claims individually, rather than focusing on the person saying them.
Have you a better explanation? Or would you working from a conclusion backwards? Interested to know. Thanks for the warning either ways.
But the surveys are ongoing and a better case is being built progressively.
This is not Myth, its Indian History, Hare Krishna
Legend
How big would the ships have to be for the anchors? What about Carthage? Or if that part of the sea bed had floated underneath it?
Good to see you, not just showing criticism toward India.
He is trying to cleverly trying to play down everything including time, the weapons, grandeur - he has an agenda

Looks like stones I find on the shores. if these stones are artefact I threw a lot of em away
The pottery in Gulf of cambay could also be associated with the fact that the major peninsular river, the river Narmada meets the Arabian sea at Gulf of Cambay. This river also has a religious importance in Hinduism. For many religious rituals including the last rites the earthern pots are released in the river. This to me looks like one of the sources for pottery and other human made objects!
Wow.. best quality content . From india
Humble request to throw an light on sunken oldest city near poompukar , tamilnadu in south india😊😊😊.
31:40 don't they look like man-made objects? I feel like they are man-made. Can I know why u think they are not?
Do you think it's just a normal stone sir? But I feel like normal doesn't look like that. Let me know you opinion sir.
So do u think that Dwarka might be a under sea “knowledge mine “ to understand our past ? Great video
There might be some fascinating artifacts to find, but I don't think we should hold out a lot of hope that there will be something like a library.
@@WorldofAntiquity well I’d hope , archaeologists and historians of tomorrow take interest and uncover whatever is present down there
@@WorldofAntiquity even if there existed a library , it would’ve been destroyed by the activity of the oceans
@@WorldofAntiquity indians stored their knowledge in temple carvings so if we find a single temple underwear then we hit a jackpot
@@WorldofAntiquity According to you, was Krishna real or just a legendary figure?
There was a paleochannel from saraswati till dwaraka in remote sensing data, so may be it's submergence is related to drying of saraswati river.
That was a comet impactor meteor impact in the Indian Ocean that they found in the last few years that dates to around 5000 BC, which I think that would be old enough to still be the city
