INDIAN HISTORY

• The history of India begins with evidence of
  human activity of Homo sapiens as long as 75,000
  years ago hominids (Homo Erectus) from about
  500,000 years ago. The Indus Valley Civilization,
  which spread and flourished in the north-western
  part of the Indian subcontinent from c. 3300 to
  1300 BCE, was the first major civilization
  in India. A sophisticated and technologically
  advanced urban culture developed in the Mature
  Harappan period, from 2600 to 1900 BCE.

INDIAN FOOD

• The earliest Indians, the Harappans, probably ate
  mainly wheat and rice and lentils, and
  occasionally cows, pigs, sheep, and goats,
  and chicken. Rice and chicken seem to have come
  from Thailand, and wheat and sheep from West
  Asia. Some of the wheat was made into stews or
  soups, and some into flat breads called chapatis.

• The vegetarian food that Indians ate was
  mainly wheat flatbreads or a kind of flatbread
  made out of chickpeas, with a spicy vegetarian
  sauce, and yogurt. Or people ate rice, with
  yogurt and vegetables. A lot of spicy peppers
  grew in India. 
• People could still eat sheep or goats or chicken,
  but most of the people in India became
  vegetarians, and only ate meat very rarely or not
  at all.

INDIAN CULTURE

• The culture of India has been shaped not only by
  its history, unique geography and
  diverse demography, but also by its ancient
  heritages, which were formed during the Indus
  Valley Civilization and evolved further during
  the Vedic age, rise and decline of Buddhism,
  the Golden age, invasions from Central
  Asia, European colonization and the rise of
  Indian nationalism.
• The languages, religions, dance, music, architectu
  re and its customs differ from place to place
  within the country, but nevertheless possess a
  commonality. The culture of India is an
  amalgamation of diverse sub-cultures spread all
  over the country and traditions that are several
  millennia old.
