Harappan Civilisation Test-2

The Great Bath was a large rectangular tank in a courtyard surrounded by a corridor on all four sides. There were two flights of steps on the north and south leading into the tank, which was made watertight by setting bricks on edge and using a mortar of gypsum.

Harappans created sculpture, seals, pottery, and jewelry from materials, such as terracotta, metal, and stone.

The Pashupati Seal is a steatite seal that was discovered at the Mohenjo-daro archaeological site of the Indus Valley Civilization.

Harappan cultures were associated with distinctive pottery, evidence of agriculture and pastoralism, and some crafts. Settlements were generally small, and there were virtually no large buildings.

In the Harappan culture, various distinctive objects were found. These include seals, beads, weights, stone blades and even baked bricks.

Harappan seals were made of a stone called steatite. They often contain animal motifs and signs from a script that remains undeciphered.

Harappan culture can be distinctively observed in Afghanistan, Baluchistan, Jammu and Gujarat.
