The story is an attempt to place before the readers the probable steps our ancestors climbed in order to reach this high of the present through the ages. By our ancestors I mean the people who lived on the West coast of India from their first human forms up to the present. The story is completely my imagination and not based on any hard and fast evidence. But it is based on the present knowledge of people like me about the stages of civilization. We do not have much evidence to either believe or not believe whether man developed from apes; first into homonids and then into Homo sapiens. I believe that most of the information available in literature now about the various ages of civilization is based on interpretations of the fossils and archaeological findings by the learned scientists. There are still questions regarding when and how this world came into being. Man wants to know the conditions in which his ancestors lived. He wants to know how they came to live in the land. Was there a beginning to this world? How many years have passed since the first human appeared? Every sand particle on the West coast of India has a history but we can not see it with naked eyes. There are no fossils of animals or plants, which could recount their stories to us directly. This story is based on whatever is known to an educated person like me and provides a possible outline of the lives of people who lived here since the earliest times.
