Bang on the mark.
We are the IVC's legacy. That's why Gangetics loathe us and Dravidians keep pretending IVC is some "southie" construct.
Although it’s off topic on this thread, since several people have posted on this subject, I’ll say something as well while we wait for the war to restart, or end. This subject can be discussed in more detail elsewhere.
The Indus Valley Civilization was mainly created by Ancient Iranians with some Ancestral Indians. IVC existed before the Aryans. Today Ancient Iranian DNA is very common in both countries. There’s no clear border in the DNA of Pakistanis and Indians. It’s more of a smooth transition.
In my view, instead of trying to create a new mythology about Pakistan being totally different from India based on ancient history, it may be better to stick with the fact that we’re Muslims and they’re not. Otherwise a lot of contortions are required to distinguish people of the two countries.
Anyone wanting to debate this may create a separate thread.
