From the first agricultural settlement more than 7,000 years ago to the Indian campaign of Alexander the Great and the vast Maurya Empire, ancient India tells a story interweaved with captivating legends and cultural legacy.
Find out how the Indus Valley civilization became one of the oldest societies in the history of humankind, and how small agricultural settlements transformed into the urban centers of Harappa and Mohenjo-daro. Dive into the origin story of Buddhism, and follow the path of a privileged young prince who became one of the most famous religious figures.
Learn everything about Ashoka the Great, his grandfather Chandragupta of Maurya, and the greatest empire in the history of India: the Maurya Empire. Our captivating guide about ancient India will take you on a journey through the rich past of the Indian subcontinent, from the beginning of civilization to the fall of the Maurya Empire.

- How did the people of the Indus Valley and Indo-Gangetic Plain live?

I do like the performance of the narrator in this work and others. However, as noted by other reviewers, there are some glaring editing problems in chapter 3 which are a bit distracting (clearing his throat, repeating fragments that were misspoken in the first attempt). I see these as lack of editing quality control and encourage the publisher to fix these and rerelease this audio book.
Well constructed story with some performance editing issues

1 heads up: I believe it's in chapter 3. there's some glitching, where either full or partial sentences are repeated.
overall, I enjoyed this, but perhaps crave a bit more.
felt a bit lacking...

1) The author wrote 1 chapter at a time with many years delay between writing chapters.
2) Different writers wrote different chapters and didn't communicate.
3) AI wrote this (99% sure its this one lol).
The book doubles back on itself frequently, giving the same information repeatedly in different chapters, and not in a normal way used to help you remember something...rather in an akward way like the writer forgot they already wrote about it (because there wasn't a real writer lol). At one part of the book it speaks of a building in a way that suggests the building certainly existed. Later in the book the same building is explained to be potentially just parts of an unreliable story.
Thoughts and ideas are fragmented, making it hard to follow on some occasions.
