Democracy Was Born in Indus Valley & Mexico & Not in Greece, Study Finds
A groundbreaking study challenges the idea that democracy began only in ancient Greece. Researchers led by Gary Feinman suggest that early forms of shared governance existed in ancient cities like Mohenjo-daro and Teotihuacan. By studying urban design and public spaces, the research shows how power may have been more distributed in these societies, long before Athens coined the term democracy. The findings reshape how we understand the origins of political systems and highlight that democratic ideas may have evolved across multiple civilisations.
