Since the matter of fact will remain that whether it was that the Israelites or the Aryans and Dravidians of the subcontinent, worshipped and feared gods they had never seen, yet their trust and faith lay in…

advanced town planning is seen in Harappa and Mohenjodaro, with their centrally planned cities indicating a highly developed architecture. Another remarkable example of sculpture from the Harappan civilization comes in the form of the dancing girl from Mohenjo-Daro.

Looks like I didn't quite cut the mustard (excuse the pun, still coming down from yesterday's pun-capade). You know how sometimes you want to match your nail design to your outfit? But somehow the Order Of The Nail Art Designs (not to be confused with The Order of Water Buffalos) doesn't grant you permission. So you're left…
