harappa civilization

Indus Valley

The Indus Valley civilization was the world’s most planned most planned and most known civilization. It is known for its drainage system, water purification systems and towns (upper town, middle town, and lower town). Most high class people lived in the low town, middle class people lived in the middle town as well as third class people and the high town was for governmental workers and governmental issues.         

Art and Sculpture

There weren't any paintings but there were sculptures like the Dancing Girl which is 12 centimeters tall.                                                          

 Trade

City workers traded beads, gold, silver and pots. Farmers traded food, grains and other agricultural items.

   

Agriculture and Food

The Indus Valley people kept cattle, pigs, sheep and goat for food. They grew dates, plums, melons, rice and grains. They were healthier fed than other civilizations.

            

The End of the Indus Valley Civilization

In my perception the Indus Valley ended because their trade stopped, there were to many people, and probably the reservoirs flooded.
