Viewing the numerous seals, terrcotta figures and icons of the Mohenjodaro and Harrapa antiquities, which form the concrete evidence to determine about the religious belief of the people, it seems that there existed a more civilised and cultured society of people who were true followers of Ahimsa and Yoga, that they had a religion which was more akin to the religious observance of a Jaina Yogi and that they were followers of Rishabha cult of yore, which afterwards came to be known as Jainism. A copper-plate grant of the Babylonian king Nebuchaduezzar I (Circa 1140 B.c.) found in Kathia war which records that the King paid homage to Tirthankara.
