Pakistan was created in 1947. Its Indian history.
Why "Ancient Pakistan"?
Some people will argue why use the term "Ancient Pakistan" when there is nothing ancient about Pakistan since it was created in 1947 AD... also that Pakistan is a Muslim country, so it cannot claim pre-Islamic history as theirs?
Technically it is true that the current geo-political entity called Pakistan did not exist prior to 1947, however, the land and people of Pakistan have a history dating back to thousands of years. The majority of the people of Pakistan are descendent of ancient Harappans who over the centuries got mixed with migrating/invading Aryans, Persians, Greeks, Scythians, Parthians, Kushans, White Huns, Arabs, Turks, and Moguls. The resulting synthesis of evolved race and culture gave birth to the present day people of Pakistan. So yes, ancient Pakistan was Indus Valley Civilization, Gandhara, etc.
The descendants of ancient Mesopotamia are now mostly Muslims and called Iraqis, the descendent of ancient Nile Valley are now mostly Muslims and called Egyptians, the descendent s of ancient Hellenes are now mostly Christians and called Greeks... so there is nothing wrong if the descendants of ancient Indus Valley are now mostly Muslims and called Pakistanis! With the passage of time, a people may evolve due to racial/cultural fusion with newcomers along with the adoption of newer beliefs, but that does not erase their history/past. The past defines the present, so to deny Pakistan's pre-Islamic past is to deny the Pakistani identity. It is time that Pakistanis also take pride in their ancient heritage
Although both India and Pakistan were created at the same time out of British Raj, Indians desperately try to steal Pakistan's heritage, particularly the Indus Valley Civilization. This Indian hegemonic agenda is based on myths and false propaganda for religious and nationalistic imperialism. Also, there are some Pakistanis, particularly Islamists, who narrow-mindedly deny and ignore Pakistan's glorious pre-Islamic past.
Indus Valley Civilization was mostly based in the region of Pakistan. The names used for the Civilization are "Indus Valley" or "Harappan", both in Pakistan. The most largest and important cities are Harappa and Mohenjodaro, both in Pakistan. Even in the case of Hakra/Ghaggar river (extinct), a tributary of Indus itself, it has far more mature Harappan sites on the Pakistani side than on the Indian side. The proto-Indus site is also located at Mehrgarh in Pakistan. Indus sites found in parts of Northwest India are its periphery. More than 90% of Indians (i.e. outside those parts of northwest India) have nothing to do with Indus Valley Civilization, where their ancestors were nomadic forest-dwelling hunters and gatherers at a time period when the sophisticated Indus Valley Civilization was flourishing.
Harappan religion was not Hinduism. Not a single Hindu temple, idol, or statue has been found at excavated Indus sites. Harappans buried their dead, ate beef, and were not Vedic. The "Great Bath" was common in many civilizations such as among the Graeco-Romans and Mesopotamians. Depicted on some Indus seals, the "deity" wearing the horned head-dress looks nothing like Hinduism's Shiva. Bull seemed to be sacred among Harappans similar to Mesopotamians and Minoans, but not the cow.
It is something that the Indians on this forum and beyond have failed to understand. That is, a change of religion does not mean change of people. I find it amusing that Indians sitting hundreds of miles away in the farthest corners of India turn around and say Indus civillazation is theres while I am a foreign invader.
