    By the year 1979, Mr. David W. Davenport (an India born English man) published a book named “Tomlinson devastation 2000BC” in Italy, in which he raised a provocative theory about the ruins of Mohenjo Daro. He doubted whether Mohenjo Daro; the city of Dravidian civilization was destroyed by an atomic bomb. Amazing isn’t it let us view David’s observations.

    Mohenjo Daro and Harappa were the well planned cities which had a supply net work with well developed sewage systems. While doing the excavation of Harappa and Mohenjo Daro the archeologists found a large number of skeletons, which displayed a shocking death scenario of the past. More particularly in Mohenjo Daro almost entire city population was died on the streets. The skeletons displayed that scenario. The parents tried to protect their children by cuddled them. Some people tried to protect their relatives by holding their hands. But no one was escaped. In the excavation site the scientists found the radioactive contamination was higher (50fach) than the normal circumstances. The street of Mohenjo Daro was full of black glass lumps. Black glass lumps shows that Mohenjo Daro was attacked by an enormous heat and due that heat everything was melt. The archeological discovery shows the bodies were not buried or not eaten and they were laying on the ground as such when the death fall on them. And the bone remains shows no violence by fire arms or by any blank.

    In the excavation site of Mohenjo Daro the scientists found some hot spots of radio activity which could be a targeted attack of a military activity. In Mohenjo Daro an accurate epicenter of explosion of 50 yards of diameter was found. At that place everything was crystallized and molten.All that evidence shows two possibilities; Mohenjo-Daro was destroyed by the nuclear warfare or by a meteorite impacts. The meteorite impact was ruled out; why because no radioactive meteorite fragments was found at the site more over the radioactive pollution was not uniform (in the case of meteorite impact the pollution will be uniform). Hence Mohenjo Daro was destroyed by an atomic warfare.The  Dravidian civilization was nullified by the Aryan sophisticated warfare technology.Article Source: http://www.elixirofknowledge.com/2011/02/was-mohenjo-daro-destroyed-by-nuclear.html

    Let me get this straight – the meteorite theory is ruled out because of perceived inconsistencies, so a far more preposterous theory involving an atomic bomb in the ancient world is the conclusion?  Please understand if I find this logic more than a bit disturbing.  I think we'd first have to consider *other* natural geological possibilities which could account for the state of destruction.  I'm not sure what they would be, but I imagine there have to be some.  As for the meteorite theory – I have recently been watching a documentary series on the universe and they discuss how the meteorite over Siberia in the early twentieth century did not leave a crater, either.  It also did not burn up the trees nearby, even though it flattened them.  The theory was that it blew up while still in the sky, and so there was only an after-effect that hit earth.  Could this have happened at Mohejo Daro?  I'm not sure.  If we account for the non-uniformity by a meteorite which hit/near hit while in fragments, this theory could still be saved.  At the end of the day, I think we're better off attributing strange historical events to strange natural phenomena rather than things better kept to science fiction.

    The meteroite theory is the best one out there.  It can even explain the enhanced radioactivity.
