Roopkund Skeleton Lake: A Himalayan Mystery
Roopkund (sometimes called Skeleton Lake) is a glacial lake in Uttarakhand state of India famous due to more than five hundred human skeletons found at the edge of the lake. The location is uninhabited and is located in Himalaya at an altitude of about 5,029 metres (16,499 feet).
The human skeletons were rediscovered in 1942 by a Nanda Devi game reserve ranger H K Madhwal, although there are reports about these bones from the late 19th century. Earlier it was believed by specialists that the people died from an epidemic, landslide or blizzard. The carbon dating from samples collected in the 1960s vaguely indicated that the people were from the 12th century to the 15th century.
The Nanda Devi Jat Yatra is held once in every 12 years in the District of Chamoli, Uttaranchal. During this two week long Yatra, thousands of devout pilgrims throng the region of Kumaon to pay respect to goddess Nanda Devi. The royal family of Garhwal conducts the Nanda Raj Jaat to please the Isht-Devi, in order to seek blessings for a prosperous kingdom and the defeat of their enemies. In Chamoli Nanda Devi Rajjaat is organized once in 12 years.
The jaat starts from Nauti village near Karnprayag and goes upto the heights of Roopkund and Haemkund with a four horned sheep. After the havan-yagna is over, the sheep is freed with decorated ornaments, food and clothings and the other offerings are dischared. Special prayers and rituals are performed and the offerings are loaded on the four- horned Ram just like the things given to a daughter in her marriage are sent. The sheep is decorated like a bride, ready to leave for her husband's home. The scene becomes pathetic when the devotees, in tears, bid farewell to the Devi, as if they are bidding farewell to their own daughter.
Legends has it that Nanda Devi, consort of Lord Shiva left her village and went to the nanda devi parbat. Therefore when the yatra starts, heavy rain occurs as if the devi is crying. This yatra covers many villages and in between the Devi meets her sister in the Bhagwati village. The Raj Jat Yatra is held annually, in Garhwal.

Unsolved Mystery of The Skeleton Lake in Himalayas | Mystery of The Ancient Remains Frozen
Thanks for watching...
Roopkund is a high altitude glacial lake in the Village Wan, Debal, Chamoli, Uttarakhand state of India. It lies in the lap of Trishul massif and is famous for the hundreds of human skeletons found at the edge of the lake. The area is uninhabited, in the Himalayas at an altitude of 5,029 metres (16,499 feet). Surrounded by rock-strewn glaciers and snow-clad mountains, the lake is a popular trekking destination.
A shallow lake, having a depth of about two metres, Roopkund has attracted attention because of the human skeletal remains that are visible at its bottom when the snow melts. Researchers have concluded that the skeletons are the remains of people killed in a sudden, violent hailstorm in the 9th century. Because of the human remains, the lake has been called Skeleton Lake in recent times.
Skeletons were rediscovered in 1942 by a Nanda Devi game reserve ranger Hari Kishan Madhwal, although there are reports about these bones from the late-19th century. At first, British authorities feared that the skeletons represented casualties of a hidden Japanese invasion force, but it was found that the skeletons were far too old to be Japanese soldiers. The skeletons are visible in the clear water of the shallow lake during a one-month period when the ice melts. Along with the skeletons, wooden artifacts, iron spearheads, leather slippers,[6] and rings were also found. When a team from National Geographic magazine retrieved about 30 skeletons, flesh was still attached to some of them. Geneticists Niraj Rai and Manvendra Singh at the Center for Cellular and Molecular Biology at Hyderabad conducted DNA tests on a hundred samples from the lake and compared them to the current Indian population. Results indicated that 70 percent of them had an affinity with Iran, while the remaining ones belonged to the local population. It is hypothesized that the Iran group took the help of local porters to seek new land for settlement. Later studies placed the time of mass death around the 9th century CE (1,200 years old).
Local legend says that the King of Kanauj, Raja Jasdhaval, with his pregnant wife, Rani Balampa, their servants, a dance troupe and others went on a pilgrimage to Nanda Devi shrine, and the group faced a storm with large hailstones, from which the entire party perished near Roopkund Lake.
Remnants belonging to more than 300 people have been found. Radiocarbon dating of the bones at Oxford University's Radiocarbon Accelerator Unit determined the time period to be 850 CE ±30 years.[citation needed] The Anthropological Survey of India conducted a study of the skeletons during the 1950s and some samples are displayed at the Anthropological Survey of India Museum, Dehradun.

Dead Man Lake, Mystery and Skeletons Lake – ROOPKUND (Garhwal Trekking, Uttrakhand, India)
Presented by Comrade On Clouds.
Height of Roopkund (Indian Himalayas Trekking) – 5029 meter (16,499)
Roopkund (locally known as Mystery and Skeletons Lake or dead man lake) is a high altitude glacial lake at Nanda Devi trek in the Uttarakhand state of India. It lies in the lap of Trishul massif and is famous for the hundreds of human skeletons or dead mans found at the edge of the lake. The area is uninhabited, in the Himalayas at an altitude of 5,029 metres (16,499 feet). Surrounded by rock-strewn glaciers and snow-clad mountains, Roopkund is a popular Indian Himalayas Trekking destination.
A shallow lake, having a depth of about two metres, Roopkund has attracted attention because of the human skeletal remains that are visible at its bottom when the snow melts.
They say it was named after Parvati saw her own beautiful reflection in the water. Roop comes beautiful in Hindi, and Kund is pond, hence, Roopkund. Also, surprisingly, the lake is buried with some 200 skeletons belonging to the 9th century. Scientists believe that a group of pilgrims accompanied by a few locals had perished under a heavy hailstorm. For years their skeletons created mystery, challenging scientists to draw back to their origins. Even today they cannot say with surety where those people came from.
Garhwal trekking details:-
8 days (beginning from Kathgodam and back to Kathgodam. You walk for 6 days, from the base camp at Lohajung and back via Wan village. From Kathgodam, it takes 10 hours in Jeep to reach Lohajung.)
Total walking distance: 60 kms.
A steep climb from Pathar Nachuni to Kalu Vinayak Pass would lead us to another place with an interesting folklore. This is where Lord Vinayak was standing guard while Parvati was taking bath in Roopkund Lake. It is from here that one can see the Roopkund crater for the first time.
And last but not the least, the skeletons are believed to be of Tibetan traders or Japanese soldiers who lost their way or Tuglak’s army according to various folklore. There’s also the story that goes like King Jasdal of Kanauj was on his way with his wife undertaking a pilgrimage called, “Nanda Jat” to propitiate Goddess Nanda Devi . The Queen delivered a child on the way. This made the Goddess Nanda Devi angry by spoiling Her Holy Land. A snow storm was sent down by the Goddess killing hundreds on the trail of pilgrimage.
There’s your dose of myths and folklore for each day of the trek. And if you still need something more to make up your mind here’s some magnificence.

Mystery of Roopkund Lake Skeletons | (Mystery Diaries)
Imagine a frozen lake, which, upon melting each year, reveals the unnerving sight of the remains of more than 300 people! A small lake known as Roopkund Lake sits high in the Indian Himalayas, more than 16,000 feet (4,900 meters) above sea level. Covered in ice and surrounded by rocky glaciers, the lake appears to be a typical, albeit beautiful, natural wonder. However, during one month of the year, when the ice melts away and the bottom of the shallow lake becomes visible, the true nature of the lake reveals itself. At the bottom of the lake are hundreds of mysterious human skeletons. There have been efforts to determine who these people were, where they were from, and how they died, but many questions still remain unanswered about the skeletons at Roopkund – now referred to as Skeleton Lake.
Roopkund Lake is located at the bottom of a small valley in the Himalayas, in Chamoli district, Uttarakhand state, in India. The lake is very shallow, with its greatest depth at approximately 2 meters. The area is a popular destination for adventurous tourists, due to the spectacular trek to get there. There are several trekking routes on the way to Roopkund, which many take advantage of, both for the picturesque view, and to satisfy the curiosity and intrigue surrounding the skeletal remains.
Theory - One:
Initial researchers have recognized that the skeletons are the remains of people killed in a sudden and violent hailstorm in the 9th or 10th century. 70-80 percent of them had a close kinship with Iranian people, while rest of them belonged to the group of local porters or villagers.
Theory Two:
In one other theory British administrators opined that these remains characterized fatalities of a secret Japanese conquest of crossing that route during World War II
Theory Three:
As per local group of people, King of Kanauj - Raja Jasdhaval with his expecting wife Balampa, their servants, a dance troupe and others went on a visit to Nanda Devi shrine, and the group faced a snowstorm with large sleets, from which the complete group got killed and subsequently froze near Roopkund Lake area.
Theory Four:
Scientific tests from a 2004 excursion to the Roopkund lake discovered that the skeletons are related to numerous groups of people, counting a group of short people (probably local porters) and a taller group, who were closely associated with Chitpavans Brahmin clan of Konkan range.
Theory Five:
It was earlier believed that the skulls were of General Zorawar Singh’s men, who had got lost and died in the middle of the Himalayan region after they got caught in bad weather while returning from the battle of Tibet in 1841. Or it could have been an epidemic or a suicide ritual performed near the lake by them.
The Most Reliable Theory:
In this theory which is considered as most reliable one, Scientists and researchers mutually agreed to the point that these remains belonged to a group of out of state Pilgrims and local porters and they are dated somewhere around 850–900 AD. These Skeletons most probably belonged to two major groups; one of a clan taller in height and second belonged to a comparatively shorter group (local people). Their demise was mainly triggered due to a fatal throw of some hard solid material on the back of their heads and shoulders.
In this event most of the people died of the deadly consequences and rest of them just froze due to snowstorm.
Today, there are concerns about the conservation of Roopkund. Many trekkers have traveled there to see the remains. Many people travel there by mule, and take bones and skeletons with them as they leave. The large numbers of visitors, and the mules trekking through the area bring concerns of damage to the remains that are there. Of course, of greater concern, is the removal of remains. While some information has been determined about the individuals, there may be a great more data to uncover, but this possibility gets smaller as more and more remains are destroyed and removed. Efforts have been made to protect that area as an eco-tourist destination, so people can still view the wonders of Roopkund, without risking destruction or removal of the skeletons. Preserving the possibility of further research is essential if there is going to be hope of learning more about the mysterious group of people that were killed over a millennium ago in the Himalayas.
