An ancient, heavily populated city in Pakistan was instantly destroyed 2,000 years before Christ by an incredible explosion that could only been caused by an atomic bomb.
That's the mind bogging conclusion of a British researcher, David Davenport, who spent 12 years studying ancient Hindu scripts and evidence at the site where the great city - Mohenjo Daro once stood.
For David Davenport, an English of Indian origins, expert of Sanskrit, a thermonuclear explosion isn't a far hypothesis at all.
The description of the immense power of such a weapon were contained in the Mahabharata, section Drona Parva, describing a weapon called "Agneya":
it was like a shiny rocket whose heat burned the world like a fever.
Then, cold winds, cardinal points became clear and lightful.
Looking at the burned walls, the second possibility seems the right one.
In fact, Indra led a cruel invasion.
In the Rigveda, it's written:
"devast the strong ones like time tears the clothes."
Everybody was slaughtered in loco.
The final touch was a sudden holocaust of fire.
Davenport came back from Pakistan with some sample remains from the city.
The CNR lead a serious analysis that amazed the researchers: the objects brought by him appeared to be fused, glassified by a heat as high as 1500°C, followed by a sudden cooling.
Let's say that no natural phenomena can do the same.
For Davenport, the destruction described in the Ramayana of the Danda Kingdom were nothing but the end of Mohenjodaro, also identified as Lanka, meaning "isle", which Mohenjodaro was built on.

What was found at the site of Mohenjo Daro corresponds exactly to Nagasaki, declared Davenport, who published his startling findings in an amazing book, "Atomic Destruction in 2000 B.C.", Milan, Italy, 1979.
There was an epicenter about 50 yards wide where everything was crystallized, fused or melted, he said.
Sixty yards from the center the bricks are melted on one side indicating a blast. the horrible, mysterious event of 4,000 years ago that leveled Mohenjo Daro was recorded in an old Hindu manuscript called the Mahabharata, which has been guarded by holy men for centuries:
White hot smoke that was a thousand times brighter than the sun rose in infinite brilliance and reduced the city to ashes, the account reads.
Water boiled...horses and war chariots were burned by the thousands.
The corpses of the fallen were mutilated by the terrible heat so that they no longer looked like human beings.
The description concludes:
It was a terrible sight to see ... never before have we seen such a ghastly weapon.
Based on his study of many ancient manuscripts, Davenport believes that the end of Mohenjo Daro was tied to a state of war between the aryans and the mongols.
Aryans controlled regions where space aliens were mining minerals and exploiting other natural resources, he believes.
Because it was a Mongol city, the aliens had agreed to destroy Mohenjo Daro on behalf of the Aryans.
The aliens needed the friendship of the Aryan kings so that they could continue their prospecting and research, explained Davenport.
