Mohenjo-daro: Unsealing an Ancient Indus City explores one of the world's greatest lost civilizations — the Indus Valley Civilization – through the eyes of Omar Khan, the founder of Harappa.com. He walks through the nearly five thousand year old city of Mohenjo-daro, discusses recent speculations about the Great Bath and the so-called Stupa mound, and raises many unanswered questions about this Bronze Age civilization while sharing recent perspectives and information.
High quality graphics, countless actual Indus seals, pottery and sculptures photographed by leading archaeologists like Drs. Jonathan Mark Kenoyer and Richard H. Meadow; new photography and rare archival images from the earliest excavators; a handful of key recreations of the Great Bath and Stupa-Mound; the voices and music of Sindh from premiere music studio Lahooti Live Sessions. Featuring interviews with leading scholars, this film is ideal for students, educators, and anyone curious about the ancient world and the Indus civilization, the original urban civilization which some 2 billion people can claim descent from in modern India, Pakistan and Bangladesh.
