Cities of Dust and Wind explores how long-term climate stress — a weakening monsoon, drying rivers, and centuries of drought — undermined the Indus Valley’s urban world. Using archaeology, paleoclimate records, and satellite evidence, this episode traces how Harappa, Mohenjo-Daro and other great cities declined as their water sources faltered, forcing migration and social change.
