A personal experience about Mohenjo-daro

https://www.dawn.com/news/1316323

It likely was a colony of ancient Shambhala (Sanskrit: शम्भल Śambhala)

Interesting. I had a similar experience when I was about eight, we were living in Islamabad at the time (1967). This may have been in conjunction with a trip to the Mangla dam, but Mohenjo-daro was fascinating.

I do also.

Yes, many are modern day heroes.

Thanks, a very nice article from Dawn.

This is sad:

Preservation work for Mohenjo-daro was suspended in December 1996 after funding from the Pakistani government and international organizations stopped. Site conservation work resumed in April 1997, using funds made available by the UNESCO. The 20-year funding plan provided $10 million to protect the site and standing structures from flooding. In 2011, responsibility for the preservation of the site was transferred to the government of Sindh.

Currently the site is threatened by groundwater salinity and improper restoration. Many walls have already collapsed, while others are crumbling from the ground up. In 2012, Pakistani archaeologists warned that, without improved conservation measures, the site could disappear by 2030.
