The analysis of the DNA has changed the understanding of the modern Indian population and also helped understanding the genetic make up of the people that created the metropolitan cities of the Indus-Saraswati Civilisation, the advancement of which are incomparable to rest of the contemporary world. The scientists identified Rakhigarhi skeleton with that of a female and determined that its mitochondrial haplogroup was U2b2, which is absent in whole mitochondrial genomes sequences available from about 400 ancient Central Asians; today, this specific haplogroup is nearly exclusive to South Asia. The major observation made by the scientists using the DNA analysis are
