This is from Harappa 2300 bc, almost two thousand years before Greek sculptures
It's small but accurate
So much from the "subhumans"

India's intellectual tradition is every bit as vast and sophisticated as China's and Europe's.

Kautilya, the author of the the Arthashastra,
the Indic tradition's sole strategic treatise,
gives advise to the Maurya King. Image Source.
The Indic tradition can claim sacred hymns, epic poetry, treatise on philosophy, mathematics, grammar, and science, handbooks on art, dharma, politics, and sex, love poems and tragedies, religious devotionals and children parables - but no histories. Because of this, the most important historical sources for these societies are usually outsiders from the West or from China! Despite the wealth of literary and epigraphical material these societies produced, Megasthenes remains one of the most important primary sources for historians studying the Maurya Empire and Zhou Daguan is one of the most important sources we have for the Angkor Empire. It was not until Muslim marcher lords fought their way into India that the discipline of history took root on the subcontinent. Southeast Asia waited even longer, seeing its first indigenous historians well after their conquest by imperial European powers."

WHO REGARDS THE PEOPLE FROM THE "HARAPPAN CULTURE" AS "SUBHUMAN"?

Chink weren't even civilized back then

First user is probably right. A good date for the start of Chinese civilization would be the emergence of the Bronze Age Erlitou culture around 1900 bc. I think it's likely that they were the Xia Dynasty, the first attested in traditional Chinese historiography, though we don't have proof of that yet.

It already has that funny potbelly that many Indian guys get unless they work out like maniacs.

I know it's a joke but I've actually seen African-American try to claim Olmec achievements as their own and it's infuriating.
Charles Perry
We have no idea what the ethnicity of the Harappans was.
I tend to believe they were dark-skinned Dravidians, but that's pure opinion.
Anthony Perry
whats the skull on the left?
Aiden Cruz
Australian Aborigine / literally Homo erectus.
Zachary Mitchell
The skull on the left is a particularly robust Australian Aboriginal human male, and the one on the right is a Caucasian female. The most archaic looking Australian Aboriginals are less primitive looking than your average Neanderthal, let alone Homo erectus. Get your facts straight.
Noah Turner
>particularly robust
You mean pureblood.
>The most archaic looking Australian Aboriginals are less primitive looking than your average Neanderthal
This is simply false.
Gabriel Cox
Yeah no shit he's pureblooded, but my point still stands. And yes, compared to the average Neanderthal he looks like a baby, that is to say neotenous. Now obviously the skull on the left isn't Abbo, but look for yourself.
Jackson Reed
>Olmec achievements
There are none.
Angel Peterson
Meanwhile, Homo erectus looks more primitive than either Abbos or Neanderthals when it comes to the skull. I mean seriously, look at this shit.
Luke Sanchez
Neoteny was a mistake
Aiden Clark
>Neanderthals look really primitive
Oh boy we got a scientific genius over here.
Julian Green
Okay, "archaic", my mistake. Compared to Homo sapiens they have more of an robust appearance. It doesn't mean they're 100% primitive, especially not mentally, as they were about as smart as us.

Why do you care what race they are? That's the most uninteresting and unimportant part of the Harrapan culture.

I bet you tell people that you dont see race, downvote

It just annoys me that OP posted something incredible, from a culture I had never heard of before, and yet I see posters obsessing over what race they are.
Imagine the effort that went into creating that, the intentions of the artist, etc, and yet you're only thinking about whether or not he was a Dravidian? Who even cares?

Wasn't that Persia back then?
