Excavations in Vadnagar, Gujarat, reveal that seven cultural eras blossomed during periods of robust monsoon activity.
Beginning in the 13th century CE, severe dry spells in western India, including Vadnagar, prompted communities to pivot from rice cultivation to growing drought-resilient millet, demonstrating adaptability without relocation.
The research also connects climate fluctuations to historical invasions, noting that significant invasions throughout 2200 years occurred when Central Asia experienced extreme dryness, while India flourished under the influence of strong monsoons.
Additionally, this study reduces the unexplored archaeological period by 800 years.
