Ancient India

Map- Bordered by Packistan and China, Himalaya Mountains, old capitol: Calcuta, new capitol: Delhi.

Inventions- Buttons, dice, medicine, surgery, c-section

Places- Taj Mahal, Goa, Pondicherry

People- Wear cotton clothing, women wear a sari, cast system, untouchables (bottom of the cast) clean the streets, no one can move casts.

Religion- Hinduism, karma, casts, founded 3,500 years ago.

Summary:
Today we learned about Ancient India.  India is bordered by Packistan and China.  The first c-section was done in India.  I would like to see the Taj Mahal someday, it looked cool.  Women in India wear saris, which is a long piece of cloth rapped around thier bodies.  The religion in India is Hinduism.  I would love to visit India.
