Why Further Excavation at Mohenjo-daro Could Put Its Remaining Ruins at Greater Risk
Mohenjo-daro is one of the most important archaeological sites in the world. As a major city of the Indus Valley Civilization, it offers rare insight into one of the earliest urban cultures in human history. Located in present-day Sindh, Pakistan, the site is admired for its advanced town planning, drainage systems, brick architecture, and organized streets. Yet despite its historical greatness, Mohenjo-daro is also extremely fragile. This is why the question must be asked seriously: why should further excavation be allowed if it may place the remaining ruins in even greater danger?

The Catastrophic Aftermath of the Dinosaur-Killing Asteroid
Approximately 66 million years ago, the Earth experienced one of the most dramatic and catastrophic events in its history: a massive asteroid, now identified as the Chicxulub impactor, collided with the planet near what is today the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico. Measuring roughly 10 kilometers in diameter, this space rock unleashed energy equivalent to billions of atomic bombs, marking the end of the Cretaceous period and triggering a chain of events that wiped out approximately 75% of all species on Earth, including the iconic non-avian dinosaurs.
