Season 3 – Tsunami tales from the west coast of India

While the eastern coast of India has witnessed devastating tsunamis, particularly in 2004, the western coast—facing the Arabian Sea—has often been considered relatively safe. But history, geology and archaeology suggest otherwise.

Hidden in ancient records, buried beneath the surface, and whispered through oral communications, there are signs that the Arabian Sea, too, has stirred violently in the past.
