The Harrpan civilization collapsed about 1500 B.C. Historians think that several earthquakes and floods damaged the cities. Then the Indus River changed its course, killing many people and forcing others to flee the area.

Why was the indus river important to ancient India?

The Indus Valley Civilization (IVC) was a Bronze Age civilization, which was centred mostly in the western part of the Indian Subcontinent, and which flourished around the Indus river basin. Primarily centered along the Indus and the Punjab region, the civilization extended into the Ghaggar-Hakra River valley, and the Ganges-Yamuna Doab river valley, encompassing most of what is now Pakistan. The Civilization is split into two parts, the Mehrgarh and the Harappan Civilizations, which are further sud-divided into Mehrgarh I and II, from 7,000 Bc to 3,300 BC. The Harappan Civilization is sub-divided into Early, Mature and Late Civilization. Early Harappan from 3,300 BC to 2,600 BC, further sub divided into Harappan 1, 3,330 to 2,800BC and Harappan 2, 2,800 to 2,600, BC. Mature Harappan from 2,600BC to 1,900BC. Further divided into Harappan 3A, 2,600 BC to 2,450BC. Harappan 3B, 2,450BC to 2,200BC. Harappan 3C, 2,200BC to 1,900BC. Late Harappan from 1,900BC to 1,300BC. Further divided into Harappan 4, 1,900BC to 1700 BC. Harappan 5, 1,700BC to 1,300 BC. From 1,300 BC to 300BC, there is still evidence of a IVC, but it was very regional, and nothing like the main civilizations mentioned above.
