“who were the Harappans?”

One of those ancient civilizations (in this case along a river in India) who seem to spring full-grown into the historical record like Athena from the head of Jupiter.

YouTube has been suggesting a ton of videos to me about obscure Central Asian people (and peoples from the Indian subcontinent) who flourished quite a few thousand years ago.

So, people start in Africa. Then they come of out Africa, and you get a few cradles of civilization (Egypt, Sumer, India, China). And meanwhile, on the steppes of Central Asia there seems to be an endless number of competing civilizations establishing neolithic empires with advanced cuisines and whatnot.

There seems to have been a ton of civilizations that popped into existence 4000 years ago. Kind of weird.
