how old the Indian history is?

Question

pl.try to give exact year, citing references, if possible.

Answer 1

exact year hahaha ya right what do you want the basic Indus Valley, aryan arrival stuff or are you looking for Palelithic evidence? Obviously there still is Paleothic remains because hominids from Africa have long walked her shorlines.First was Homo Erectus and then Homo Sapien Sapiens. Our species may have entered India as far back as 80,000 or even earlier. However this migration may represent an even older human population that was out of Africa 120,000 went back in and then some of the genes went with the migration80,000 years ago.

Answer 2

The history of India begins with the archaeological record of Homo sapiens ca. 34,000 years ago.

India's history essentially includes the entire Indian subcontinent, encompassing the territory of the modern nations of the Republic of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal and Bhutan.

Answer 3

it was not a tradition of practice in ancient India to produce a systematic written history in the modern chronological sense of the terms.All that was conidered to serve a similar purpose was a vast and precious treasure of a wide range of literary or epical form of classical wisdom. This practice remained if vogue for quite a long period of time up to the end of the middle age.

Indian history is not the same as Indian Civilization. the age of civilization is distinctly different from the age of a written history of a nation.. if i manage to guess that you attempt to understand the age of compiling ,history of India, as an exercise in composing a disciplined branch of study the answer follows.
its not at all old enough . i mean constructon of dated history of india in a scientific and coherent method. the early process may have started around the period of founding of British Empire in
India. however James Mill , father of famous pol. thinker John Stuart Mill had produced a first ever concise pol. History of India without visiting India for once in his life time.
Foreign travellers like Meghasthenes, Hieuen Tsang, Al Beruni , Ibn Batuta and Firdousi are few of the eminent chroniclers who if in stray and isolated cases had richly contributed with their vivid accounts of time and men in different points of Indian history. such recorded observations did serve the purpose of producing structured history in due times..
A lot of un organised historical source- materials lay un tapped till later part of 19 th c. before scholars could explore and put them together in codified form. in sum- the process of developement of the art of writing history received its appropriate tuning up only after the influence of our contact with the West came about.

Answer 4

It is yet to catch the brain of the historians. It is very ancient. Yet to perfect historical studies need to be conducted. Our national leaders, who were products of western education and communist ideologies failed to recognise our history beyond 2000 years, as the countries where they are having great respect do not existed beyond that time.
