The seeds of the culture of Indus Valley Civilization (also known as Harappan Civilization) are shown in Mehrgarh in 6000 BCE. The two great cities of Mohenjo-daro and Harappa were in Punjab and Sindh along with Indus river valley in approximately 2600 BCE.
After the excavation in the south of Lahore, west Punjab in Harakappa near Larkana near Sindh in Mohengeo-Daro and many reforms were made in the writing system, urban centers and social and economic systems of this civilization in 1920. At that time, too many Himalaya Giripiths were excavated by digging other places, which included mainly the western part of Balochistan in India from north to west and west of Pakistan and in Pakistan, they were excavated. .
In 1857, when the engineers were making Lahore-Multan railroads, this valley was damaged using the brick of Harappan rule. Earlier in 1826, Harappan used to sit in West Punjab and he attracted the attention of the British officer in India, and from then on the excavation work of Harappa was started.
Ancient signs of Indus script
Clay and stone were already in the Harappan period, but they were removed from 3300 to 3200 BCE. Including special stone shapes of Trident.
"Even today, it is a big question because we have got some indications of this Harappan civilization-Harappa Sabhyata script, but it can not be ascertained from which script was used at that time," said Harappa, director of the Archeological Research Project Dr. Richard Meadow said that.
But a little glimpse of the Harappan civilization can be seen in the script of the Sumerian of Mesopotamia, whose existence was about the time of C. 3100 BCE. Because there was a similarity in the script of both those who were later known as Indus script.
Culture and Economic Status of Indus Valley Harappan Civilization
The Indus Valley civilization exhibits the characteristics of urban culture, which mainly used agricultural production and trade, and later also started trading with Sumer of Southern Mesopotamis.
Both Mohan Jodado and Harappa were known for their special identities, special houses made of bricks and religious traditions. Mohenjodaro Daro and Harappa were found quite similarities in both of these cities, but their costumes, culture and economic status were mostly the same.

Most of the houses of the Harappan Valley were made of bricks and the main occupation of the Harappan Valley civilization was trade only. The people used to produce most of the cotton while they were cultivating. Along with this, rice, wheat and other types of vegetables were also cultivated there.
At that time very few people used to cultivate flour and used to use woodgram made of wood for the purpose of farming. At that time, animals were nurtured just like today. The main reason for the progress of Harappan culture was the self-reliance of the people there.
According to sources, the lives of most of the people of the Harappan Valley were rich. The system of collection of resources in Harappa became the reason for the development of culture.
But Harappan culture - after Harappan civilization, one thing can be clearly stated that Harappa was not a life peace, according to the pre-history of South Asia, the human skeleton found here was the main cause of accidental injury in Harappan rule. .
According to the archaeological department survey, people of the Harappan Valley were battling sick diseases during the last era of Harappan period. This was mainly caused by Carnio-fascial mental trauma, which was rapidly getting infected. It is said that despite being financially prosperous, the people of Harappan Valley were not good at their health.
