The west coast of India had connections with the Davidic kingdom as per the Bible. And during the bronze age there were long distance trading links from Tamil Nadu to Egypt and Mesopotamia

One of the ancient fishing jetties in Island Beach State Park NJ.

Hey - I think it's over 100 years old - so it is too "ancient"...
It may not be in India - but is was where I caught my first striped bass...

Since the jetties are 5 to 7 meters below sea level, and they must have been 1 to 2 meters above while in use, they must have been in use about 6000 to 8000 years ago.

A lot of thought went into protected harbor tech way back when, for the simple reason that protected harbors attract silt and sand until they fill up. I believe it was one of the ancient Greek harbors that innovated a design so the harbor would automatically wash out its silt and sand.

The technique to do so would be gold, so I would think it would travel, and I wonder if India had something like this.
