00:00Before Rome, before Athens, before even the pyramids of Egypt reached for the skies,
00:05there was another great civilization, flourishing quietly along the banks of the mighty Indus River.
00:11In today's Pakistan and northwest India, nearly 5,000 years ago,
00:16the Indus Valley civilization built cities so advanced, so meticulously designed,
00:21that they remain marvels even by modern standards.
00:24But how did this ancient culture, largely forgotten for centuries,
00:28master the art of sustainable urban design?
00:31And what lessons can we still learn from them today?
00:34Let's step back in time and explore one of humanity's first great experiments in city living.
