Ancient Inventions In India That Very Few People Know

 Ancient Inventions In India That Very Few People Know: The history of India dates back to the earliest times of human civilization. Unlike the great dynasties of ancient Egypt and China, the civilization of Ancient India is still somewhat of a mystery. India is a country in South Asia whose name comes from the Indus River. The Indian sub-continent stretches back over 250,000 years and it is, therefore, one of the oldest inhabited regions on the planet. We do know about Ancient India that it is fascinating. Kids studying world history will be spellbound by accounts of the two major cities, Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro. These huge urban trading hubs were carefully planned and seem uncannily modern, with their advanced plumbing systems (they even had toilets!), communal granaries, and graceful public buildings. The ancient Indian inventions: Archaeological excavations have discovered artifacts used by early humans, including stone tools, which suggest an extremely early date for human ha...

Who is the most intelligent criminal in history? Why?

Meet, Natwarlal- The Bunty of real life, the Ricky Bahl of his own kind. Popularly known as Natwarlal, Mithilesh Kumar Srivastava was a lawyer who turned into the ‘great Indian conman’. He sold prized monuments of India and duped big shot industrialists with sheer ease. He sold the Taj Mahal thrice! Red Fort, he sold twice. He also sold the Rashtrapati Bhawan, and even the Parliament House of India (along with its 545 sitting members) to gullible foreigners by posing as a government official. He was the king of disguises and even tried to forge the signature of Dr. Rajendra Prasad! He had as many as 50 aliases and even forged signatures like a pro. They say, with merely a glance at a signature, he could create a replica. He duped the likes of Dhirubhai Ambani, the Birlas, and the Tatas for tons of cash by disguising himself as a social worker or a needy person. They sentenced him to 113 years in prison; as if! He had 100 cases charged on him and was wanted by the police of 8 states...

That are some mind blowing facts from the animal kingdom

Hopefully these 20 animal facts will remind you of the amazing world beyond the human society. 1. Dolphins use biological sonar Dolphins have remarkable eyesight and can hear frequencies ten times over what an average adult human can. Its sensory abilities are so evolved that it can monitor its environment to an incredible degree. Senses such as echolocation (biological sonar), and what is believed to be an ability to navigate by the Earth’s magnetic field, are so powerful a dolphin could, literally, “see” through you if you were swimming with one. 2. Orcas are highly cultural Orcas have the second heaviest brain in the oceans. In 2010, neuroscientists examined the brain of a dead killer whale. Following MRI scans, and observation in the wild, this much is clear: they have the ability to learn local dialects, each pod has its own language, they teach and learn complex hunting methods, and pass on individualistic behaviors. Biology professor Hal Whitehead, in 2001, stated he believe...

In your salary, can you buy an Apple iPhone, the latest model. then what happened with you?

The latest iPhone launched is iPhone 12 and is priced at Rs 80,000 in India. Can I buy it? Yes, of course. Will I buy it? Not a chance. Having the money doesn't always have to mean that you need to splurge it. When I buy something, I look on the 'value for money' part. With iPhones, I don't see any. The features I want in a phone is easily available on an Android phone which is priced four time cheaper. So why would I go for a more expensive phone? The iPhone 12 would cost me around 7 weeks of my salary, a little less than two months. However it is very less compared to the total savings I have and if I wanted, I could have bought it. But I don't see any return on investment on it. So I would prefer not to waste my money on it. I usually use my phones for 4 years. The last two smartphones I owned was used for four years and this one is currently in its third year and still going strong. With iPhones, the longevity is much less. Very rarely would you find people usin...
