Indian maritime history begins during the 3rd millennium BCE when inhabitants of the Indus Valley initiated maritime trading contact withMesopotamia. The Roman historian Strabomentions an increase in Roman trade with India following the Roman annexation ofEgypt. By the time of Augustus up to 120 ships were setting sail every year from Myos Hormos to India. As trade between India and the Greco-Roman world increased spices became the main import from India to the Western world, bypassing silk and other commodities. Indians were present inAlexandria while Christian and Jew settlers from Rome continued to live in India long after the fall of the Roman empire, which resulted in Rome's loss of the Red Sea ports, previously used to secure trade with India by the Greco-Roman world since the Ptolemaic dynasty. The Indian commercial connection with South East Asia proved vital to the merchants of Arabia and Persia during the 7th–8th century. Indians were the first settlers in Australia. 4230 years before they sailed from India to Australia with their dingoes. 11 percent of Aboriginal DNA is of Indian descent.

"She Knows What All Smart Women Knows: Laughter Makes You Live Better, Stronger & Longer."
.
90+ Young, I Met Her While I Was On The Way Back Home From My Worksite At Assam Lingzey In East Sikkim. I Luckly Had My Camera That Day. I Had To Stop My Car As I Saw Her Busy Watering The Beautiful Flowers Outside Her House. I Hesitated A Bit But Then I Had To Take Her Pictures, Gently I Asked Her In Low Voice (Speaking In Nepali Our Local Langauge Here) "Can I Take A Few Pictures Of Yours." And In No Time There She Was So Happy, Excited And Ready For The Clicks. She Was Very Kind And Shared A Lot Of Things While Taking Pictures. A Few Days Later I Took A Print Of This Picture And Showed To Her...And Trust Me She Just Loved It..!!!

It's not pretty. But the trade in camel meat has surprising advocates in the western desert state of Rajasthan.

For centuries, the Raika, a caste of camel breeders, have worshipped the hardy animal the way most Hindus revere the cow. But with the demise of the royal camel herds kept by the state's once-plentiful rajas and maharajas, followed by the replacement of camel carts with cheap cars and trucks, the few camel breeders that remain in Rajasthan worry that outlawing camel slaughter will ensure they disappear altogether.

That's because unlike wild animals, the continued survival of domesticated livestock depends on their profitability, argues Hanwant Singh Rathore, who runs a nonprofit called Lokhit Pashu Palak Sansthan, or "Welfare Organization for Livestock Keepers," that works closely with the Raika. “Nobody is buying camels, so nobody is keeping camels,” Rathore said.

At that time, India had the world's third-largest population of wild and domesticated camels, so it seemed a natural choice. But soon after she arrived, the anthropologist learned that India's main camel herders, a desert-dwelling caste called the Raika, were unlike the Bedouin or any other camel-based society she'd ever encountered. Moreover, their cultural taboos were rapidly causing the animal from which they'd always derived their identity to disappear.

For the first time in the country's recorded history, more than half the families do not have more than two children.

While 54% married women reported having two or less children, this is significantly up from the 46.6% two-or-less children mothers counted by the previous Census in 2001, reflecting a pan-India desire for smaller families.There were about 34 crore married women who had about 92 crore children in 2011: an average of about 2.69 children per married woman.

In 2001, the corresponding figures were 27 crore married women having 83 crore children at an average of 3.03 children per woman. The dip in the average number of women is the sharpest compared to ear lier decades.

Another feature is that women are deferring child birth to later years. Among women in the 20-24 years age group, 35% had no child in 2011 compared with 32% in 2001, and in the age group 25-29, 16% had no child compared with 13.4% in 2001.

As a result of these changes, the period fertility rate - the average number of children that a woman in the age group 45-49 years has ever borne - has declined by a drastic 16% between 2001 and 2011. The fertility rate of women between 45 and 49 years, that is, when their child bearing days are over, is considered a standard measure by demographers for defining average fertility.
