Answer:

YES

Explanation:

Indeed there are many advantages to building cities on a high area; one of which is that these cities are less prone to flooding if proper drainage channels are constructed. During raining season, when water levels rise, cities built on low areas experience huge flooding (despite proper drainage system) as against cities built on high areas (having proper drainage systems) because it's easier for the drainage of low area cities to be submerged by water when water level rises as against the high area drainage system that is well above the sea level and could not easily be submerged by water and hence the city.

How does the timeline help explain why Aryabhatiya was published in about 499 BCE

Nastasia [14]

Because he was born in 476 and wrote the book when he was 23.

Explanation:

The first in a series of great mathematicians of the classical period and perhaps the greatest is certainly Aryabhata.
His most famous work today is certainly Aryabhatiya, which he wrote when he was 23, which he states in the text, and on this basis it is assumed that he was born 476, because according to other sources it is known that he died 550 years.
His name and origins are still controversial, but he is known to have studied in the city of Kusumaputra, which historians claim to be the present-day city of Patna and later was the leader of the observatory at Nalanda University 25 km southeast of Patna.
