Detailed explanation-1: -Hinduism. A Brief History of Hinduism: The birthplace of Hinduism is Indus River Valley which runs through northwest India into Pakistan. The Indus Valley civilization, or “Harappan civilization” originated sometime around 4, 500-5, 000 B.C.E. and reached its zenith between 2300 to 2000 BC.
Detailed explanation-2: -The origins of this practice are obscure and controversial. Harappa without doubt is a tributary of Hinduism . Unlike Indo-Aryans whose gods existed in the sky above, the Harappans worshipped trees, a practice Hindus continue even today.
Detailed explanation-3: -There are signs of important Hindu figures and deities such as Vishnu, Shiva and Devi in artefacts and architecture uncovered from between 500 BC and 500 AD, so we know some form of Hinduism was around at this time. Today, it’s believed over 900 million people follow Hinduism, most of these people live in India.
