The principal meaning of ecology is adaptation in environment. Since the time of Darwin, environment has been conceived as the total web of life where in all plant and animal species interact with one another with physical features in a particular unit of territory. Ecology has a particular role in moulding the culture and history of a particular region and has great contribution towards the splendour of a nation. But natural hazards created out of ecological imbalance bring about devastating results. An analysis has been made in this paper to show the effects of ecology rendering growth and decay of two river valley civilizations that existed 4000 years apart in the annals of world history
