Since when humans have been residing on Mutha banks? Excavations by Deccan College near Temghar and Bund Garden have revealed stone tools belonging to early humans.
Here is one interesting thing. The stone tools depending on the style and skill level required to make them, fall under 2 groups. Deccan college team concluded that these stone tools belonged to Homo erectus and Homo sapien sapien. Homo sapien sapien, means us.
Humans have inhabited these banks since 1 to 1.5 lac years.
Some food for thought
We accept that we humans are responsible for this condition of the river. But humans have inhabited these banks since so many years, and yet this river was clean and beautiful till some 50 years back.
Then what exactly we did wrong in these 40-50 years?
Keep this question alive. We will explore some answers along the way.
