Ancient India

Reading this section on Ancient India was quite an interesting read. I'm a huge fan of Indian culture, especially the food. So reading about the ancient cultures was an eye opener.

The ancient culture of the Indus in some ways were more advanced than the current Indian culture residing there now. They had a planned layout for their cities and they had mostly even sized homes. Meaning unlike today, they didn't have large difference in class or variation in equality based on status like they do now, with the caste system.

Most interesting to me, was the private per home waste system. Each home had a water fed waste disposal system. Something that is not in place in India today! Western civilizations didn't have this technology until the 19th century. They were over 2000 years ahead of their time.
