Saraswati River: The Lost Sacred River

What if one of the most praised rivers in human history - a river that entire civilizations were built around - simply vanished? The Saraswati is that river. The Rig Veda describes her as "the best of mothers, the best of rivers, the best of goddesses" - more important than even the Ganga or Yamuna. And then, sometime around 1900 BCE, she dried up. Cities were abandoned. Populations migrated east toward the Ganga. But the memory lived on, embedded in prayers and pilgrimage maps, waiting for science to confirm what faith never forgot.
