Food Supply : Early humans were hunters and therefore had to keep travelling to eat but when they learnt how to cultivate food they started to settle down. To grow food you need fertile soil. The plains of North India are essentially made of alluvium, the fertile soil brought down by the river. These areas had high productivity and could support large populations with it's agricultural produce.Economical Benefits : As food supply picked up so did prosperity. everyone wants to be rich. So people colonized only those areas where they could earn a livelihood because no one would make a home in a desert and no one wants to be poor.
