Connecting to my previous thread on "Myths and Mythology", I thought it was the right time to get into the Archeological evidence on Mahabharata.
Are you ready?
1. Senior archaeologists at the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) claimed that the Sanskrit epic Mahabharata could date back to 1500-2000 BCE, instead of 900-1000 BCE (Obviously, it can't be without
The claim follows the findings at the excavation site of Sanauli, 68 km away from Delhi,includied “war chariot” allegedly driven by a horse, a rusted bow & arrow, a burial site and ochre coloured pottery, war shields, whip, torch and an antennae sword with hilt.
2. The marine Archeologists have found some massive fort walls, piers, the jetty, near the city of Dwarka in Gujarat. They have found the entire city submerged in the ocean.
The verse of Mausala Parva of Mahabharata decribes the disappearance of the city in the ocean :
"After all the people had set out, the ocean flooded Dwarka, which took away the wealth of all kind. Whatever remained of the land was washed away by the ocean.
The excavations carried out during 1979 in the Dwarkadhish Temple Complex revealed three temple remains.

MYTH AND MYTHOLOGY:

All religions and all ideologies (eg: communism, liberalism and so on) are a part history and a part myth.
As for religious myths, the academic types might want to read Joseph Campbell's book, "The Power of Myth". pic.twitter.com/ukcfEl8BR3
