Dwaraka, the lost city, which is mentioned in the Mahabharata as being gradually submerged into the ocean, was recently found in the Arabian Sea off the coast of Gujarat, and dated at 3000-1500 BCE. This confirms both the antiquity of the Mahabharata and Ramayana, as well as the historical truth of the works. After end of Krishna’s Avatar on the earth the powerful dark-bodied Kali Age descended. The oceans rose and submerged the whole of Dwaraka.” According to Vishnu Purana – Dwaraka was submerged by the sea right after the Lord Krishna’s Avatar. In the early eighties an important archaeological site was found in India, at Dwaraka, the site of the legendary city of Lord Krishna. Now, it is discovered that the whole coast of western India sank by nearly 40 feet around 1500 BCE.
