Decline of the Harappan civilization:

• An earthquake: Some scholars have shown that the Indus area lies in the disturbed seismic zone. Earthquake might have reached the plains of the lower Indus river.

• Floods: Others say that it might have been destroyed by floods which did occur periodically, Harappa however has not added any evidence of flooding. This theory cannot explain why sites located outside the Harappan system declined.

• A change in the course of river submerging the cities or rivers dried up.

• Ecological crisis caused by deforestation: A growing population needed enormous quantities of wood to produce jewellery furniture, etc. This leads to deforestation - millions of trees were cut down. As forests were removed floods and droughts occur. According to some writers such an ecological crisis led to the collapse of Harappan urban culture.
