India, Iran cradles of great civilizations: Iranian envoy

OK lets look at the first paragraph from Wiki.



The oldest reference to Multan is in Mahabharat. The same Mahabharat refers to countless other cities in India, how does it make Multan the oldest ever civilization?

Second oldest reference is Alexander. Many other cities in the sub continent have references that predates Alexander.

Take Varanasi for example. Kingdom of Kashi existed during the time of Buddha. Varanasi is even mentioned in the Rig Veda! The oldest ever book!

Also as a Muslim do you believe what Mahabharat tells you? Cause that would mean you also believe in Hindu God Krishna and many other Hindu Gods that are mentioned in Mahabharat:lol:, do you?

Yes Multan is great place, has an awesome history and legacy, but the oldest in the World? Don't think so, not even the oldest in South Asia.

carbon dating has been performed on ancient sites also.

:lazy: you need to study more am not going to give history lecture.
 
Ancient India and present-day India were quite different.

I think the terms like:

"It was Pakistan that did this"

"It was India that did this"

blah blah blah...

It's all meaningless.

There was no modern-day Pakistan.

And there was no modern-day India.

There was just one big-*** India.

Not true. The subcontinent has always been a collection of small kingdoms. There arent too many points when it was unified in one big land mass.

Let me give you some more history knowledge. In ancient Indian books, the word Bharatvarsha or Aryavarta had been used for the whole subcontinent. Apart from these ever heard of Nanda Empire, Maurya Empire, Pala Empire, Gupta Empire, Kushan Empire, Chola Empire, Khilji Empire, Mughal Empire etc.
 
Show me a paper/article published about the carbon dating which declared Multan as the oldest city/ settlement ever.
Means the guy is claiming that Multan is more ancient than Harappa, Mohanjodaro and Lothal. What a jerk.

it may be not oldest ever but its very ancient.

Harappa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hindu temples in Multan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yes buddy, we know about Harappa, but could you prove your point that Multan is 5000 yrs old.

you only think it has been. India has been referred to in some books when it's meant only the Indus region. Quite a few times it didn't refer to any of the space that is modern India. That is how twisted Indian history is.
 
argh! why you guys breaking your head ? its even proved that harappa and mohanjidaro were part of Islamic civilization, don't you see Arabic scriptures, writing all around the archaeological sites?
