In both cases, the arrival of agriculture from southwest Asia after 9,000 years ago catalyzed profound population mixtures of groups related to Southwest Asian farmers and local hunter-gatherers." https://youtu.be/pra7YZWVc-s #Youtube #Video #Videos #Science #Ancient #DNA #Genetics #SouthAsia #Asia #Asian #Europe #European #Lecture #Academia #Academic #Academics @science

Asoka's commitment to spreading these policies across his empire is considered to be borne from his experience of the Kalinga war in Orissa, where he was horrified at the destruction caused by his own army. Do you think these rock edicts were a good way to popularise his beliefs?

Happy Independence Day to India! May you continue to show the world your beauty, strength, and wisdom.
Photo taken at O.P. Jindal Global University at Sonipat, Haryana, India on 15 August 2015.
Every year, the university would have a ceremony to raise the flag (one of the largest in India). The flag area was the center of campus and frequently had events and ceremonies for the university.

An interesting collection of small islands for this #MapsMonday.
The names 'Pyramid' and 'Oyster' rocks are pretty much say as you see. Personally, 'Bara Andai' (big egg) and 'Chota Andai' (small egg) are more my style, speaking from behind the fourth wall.
But don't be so distracted by the rather cute names of the islands to ignore the sunken wreck labelled on the side.

At MAHSA, we are detecting, documenting and monitoring #heritage and #archaeology in the #Indus Basin region. We are using a combination of #historic maps, #satelliteimagery, and past data to locate sites that are under threat but also those that have already been lost.
All of this data will go into free to use, open access and searchable #databases to be used by researchers internationally but especially in #SouthAsia.

Side note: Some media have incorrectly described #Manipur violence as a religious conflict. As @CrisisGroup report explains, "the violence has occurred over ethnic rather than religious divides." https://www.crisisgroup.org/asia/south-asia/india/ethnic-clashes-roiling-manipur-pose-test-indias-modi
This matches our own impression - one member of PolGeoNow was, coincidentally, personally present in Manipur, just outside the conflict area, when the violence was starting.

41 followers · 87 posts · Server mstdn.socialGood detailed report from International Crisis Group on the communal violence in #India's #Manipur state, which after months of conflict is "divided into exclusive ethnic zones". Govt troops "now patrol the buffer zone created in between, while the militias that have formed on both sides dig trenches and wait for an opportunity to attack."
