Understanding Harappans entails knowing who the were- a contemporary civilization with the Egyptians and Mesopotamians. Harappans also paid tribute to the magical three by three square in its two major cities.
Where were the Harappans located? In what is now Pakistan. Life primarily took place in two cities, Mohenjo-daro in Sind and Harappa located in the Punjab. Culture flourished from 2500 to 1500 B.C. With Mesopotamia and Egypt all three reached peak development at the same time. All three shared river civilization status. Construction of Harappa happened on the Rivi-a which was a tributary of the Indus. Mohenjo-daro was south 350 miles from Harappa also found its location 0n the Indus.
Both cities shared uniform grid-planed blocks. Planning affected towns, streets, and even their homes. Magic square planning hit a peak in their construction. I believe survivors of a lost civilization embraced the concept of balance. Balance becomes multi-faceted when using prominent numbers found on magic squares. Here are specific examples from the citadel:
- Add numbers one to nine held by the magic square above. Their sum is 45.
- Total one length and width of the Harappan Citadel. Numbers transfer to the 12 inch foot: 645 + 1380 = 2025.
- Square the number total of the above magic square as 45 x 45 = 2025. Deliberate numerical measurements were employed in their duplication of magic square characteristic numbers.
