This is the crater that a meteorite may have created or it may be a volcanic crater. It was found by archaeologist SR Rao.
Prof Karanth and Gadhvi believe its an impact crater. This creater is also known as Luna Jheel or Zeel in urdu for a lake.
Prof. G. Mathew of IIT - Bombay has found evidences of shocked quartz, impact glass and other sighs of an impact. Further investigation is in progress to discover the true cause.

  • Dimensions of the ROUND Crater of 530 meters diameter (Longitude 24°17'28.45"N Latitude 70°16'27.54"E) Crater rim has elevation of 1-2 Meters, Bottom of the crater is filled with mud and salt at sea level 20100415034736-4bc6eec8d8b2c8.86318696.kmz That's is true that meteors did hit the area of Kutch (not only Kutch but also areas of Rajasthan) and that was the time of destruction of Saraswati and INDUS civilisation on time scale. and that is why the theory was published before six years ago in 2006 , and that the loss of those civilisation area of Saraswati and Indus (DHOLAVIRA and KOTI Kuran and GADHWARI wadi in MEGHPAR on the banks of RUDRANI river - tributary of NAGMATI river of KERA). We have traced those many fragments of meteors from that area. we have collection of meteor specimens from the civilisation areas of Kutch since many years (specimen is give below) and When we see multiple meteors craters in uniform direction (as human steps in uniform direction e.g. NE) as below that confirms that, that was the perfect meteor craters. Many non-geologist and nor-astronomers came forward against the views just opposing the views but they never saw those craters but just come forward to oppose the views. But those have been later seen to visit the area secretly to see those. As meteor coming from a particular single space point and earth rotating at uniform speed get marked as craters in line. but when we see such multiple craters its more likely the meteors came from the breaking comet derbies while going in the orbit to the sun. and that if cross the Earth orbit in the way the all fragments goes to Earth atmosphere and get fire and more fragments are created by further break-ups. so in that case this does not looks like that of such a big crunches of a single simple meters but more likely to be parts of broken big comet and many more big crutches have fallen on the earth during that time. SO most likely the meteor origin was a Comet broken down as it heat up coming close to the Sun and as it was crossing the Earth orbit it heated by atmosphere heat and fire making more wide spread devastation by breaking the comet. Not only that this size of crunches only may not be sufficient to do such a devastating effect of the civilisation at that time but there must be more than that some thing is still hidden from us. and there are some possible crater area in the KORI CREEK are near LAKHPAT in the great RANN of KUTCH near MOUTH if INDUS about the size of 8km wide but as the area is at the border with Pakistan and swamp with MUD and filled with shallow sea tides is not deplorable. But if that the big carter than it might be more than sufficient to do all possible devastations we are thinking of. a) Most civilisation destroyed during same periods are (e.g. civilisation around tropical of cancer and in northern sign curve) destroyed by similar type of cause. Meteors and resulting earthquakes and atmosphere changes, in Egypt and surrounding parts of the Earth and also in Saraswati and Indus river basin. and also in Kutch.(crates have been found in Egypt greater than Arizona crater) b) Earth tilt was around +23.5 at that time if a comet crossing an Earth orbit pass towards the sun to its perihelion of the orbit, will strike the earth about that angle of the Latitudes. Decipher of sign language is in the form of Sanskrit but not in the today's Sanskrit writing but in coded (ciphered) as every where in Egypt and old Persians. meaning that they were waiting. but waiting for what? may be waiting for SUN as atmosphere might have gone dusty and sun was not visible for long long time as a result of the meteors strike to the earth. Looking back to all these points and facts of craters it looks like that the Comet Debris was the cause which was possibly going to sun before perihelion it was crossing the Earth orbit. it might have brocket by sun heat to spread crunches to different parts of northern hemisphere. Ranging from WEST to east near north tropical regions. More break up by Earth atmosphere heat and resulted fire by multiple strikes in a land area as seen in the KUTCH AND RANN OF KUTCH and a typical unidirectional at certain angle. As the earth was tilted at that angle the comet crossing Earth orbit will strike around that angle of the earth e.g. in tropics of cancer and regions close to it only depending its own orbit angle with earth orbital plane.
