  • Some schools have tried to explain the important causes which led to the abandonment of the mature Harappan sites by 1800 B.C. Some of them are as follows:-
  • By Floods - It is speculated that a sudden flood might have submerged the various town and buried them under the thick layer of mud. 
  • Due to the change in the course of Indus River.
  • Climatic change - It is also possible that there was climate change and drought took place due to deforestation. 
  • Earthquakes - It is also probable that the nature itself turned the whole land upside down. 
  • Aryan Invasion - Some scholars say that Aryans were responsible.
