In many ways, the Aryans were different from what we know about the Indus Valley dwellers. First, they were no highly organized. The Aryans were nomads rather than settled down agriculturalists.Unlike the dwellers of the Indus Valley, the Aryans used hor

So is a catastrophic meltdown coming? If so, probably a majority of the people in the world are thinking: “Serves them right.” For the last 500 years, the West has been striding across the globe, armed to the teeth with firearms, warships, bombers, and—more recently—depleted uranium, enforcing the “white man's burden” by enslaving nations and peoples and confis

Well, I am back from spending 5 days in civilization (the city). I have to tell you that it was nice to be somewhere where people know how to merge into coming traffic so you don't have to either move over, slam on the brakes as they creep in front of you, or speed up to avoid hitting them. I also enjoyed having many options for shopping and food within a few minutes in every direction. I am not sure why every store had clothes that were either black or brown or some combination of colors that included one of those, but at least I could go to twenty stores in a couple of hours to see that trend. I also was enlivened by the cultural diversity. One day while having lunch, within my earshot was a young woman and someone who looked like her grandmother. They looked like they were shopping at u

The Olmec heartland is an area on the south coast of the Gulf of Mexico coastal plain of southern Veracruz and Tabasco, is thus called because of the concentration of a large number of Olmec monuments as well as the greatest Olmec sites.The area is about 125 miles long and 50 miles wide (200 by 80 km), with the Coatzalcoalcos River system running through the middle.These sites include San Lorenzo Tenochtitlán, Laguna de los Cerros, Tres Zapotes, and La Venta is one of the greatest of the Olmec sites.La Venta is dated to between 1200 BCE through 400 BCE which places the major development of the city in the Middle Formative Period.Located on an island in a coastal swamp overlooking the then-active RÃo Palma river, the city of La Venta probably controlled a region between the Mezcalapa and Coatzacoalcos rivers.The site itself is about 18 miles inland with the island consisting of slightly more than 2 square miles of dry land.The main part of the site is a complex of clay constructions s
