Soil erosion plays a crucial role in transferring sediment and carbon from\udland to sea, yet little is known about the rhythm and rates of soil erosion\udprior to the most recent few centuries. Here we reconstruct a Holocene\uderosional history from central India, as integrated by the Godavari River in\uda sediment core from the Bay of Bengal. We quantify terrigenous fluxes,\udfingerprint sources for the lithogenic fraction and assess the age of the\udexported terrigenous carbon. Taken together, our data show that the monsoon\uddecline in the late Holocene significantly increased soil erosion and the age\udof exported organic carbon. This acceleration of natural erosion was later\udexacerbated by the Neolithic adoption and Iron Age extensification of\udagriculture on the Deccan Plateau. Despite a constantly elevated sea level\udsince the middle Holocene, this erosion acceleration led to a rapid growth of\udthe continental margin. We conclude that in monsoon conditions aridity boosts\udrather than suppresses sediment and carbon export, acting as a monsoon\uderosional pump modulated by land cover conditions
