This video goes through the Ancient history of India and the Subcontinent. It is an overview of the Indus Valley Civilization, or Harappan, the Indo-Aryans and Vedic Age, including social structures, daily life, and the Mauryan Empire. It also covers the religious development of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Indian culture, like literature and architecture.

NOTE: The first minute or so of Chapter 3 is reused from one of our previous videos, in case it seems familiar

Welcome to The Ancient World series! This series is meant to summarize broad topics in history and balances political history and events, with social/daily life, and culture. If you've watched our History of the World documentary, this series is a perfect next step. The videos are standalone, but presented in a chronological fashion. The series will be divided into 5 videos about the Ancient Period, which we call Phase 1. Upcoming videos in the current Phase will be placed at the end of these videos. Once these 5 videos are completed, we will move onto Phase 2, but this project will be considered completed, and compiled into ONE video containing all 5 parts.

THIS VIDEO IS FROM PHASE 1 OF OUR WORLD HISTORY SUMMARIZED SERIES
