Sindhu Sabhyata
The Indus Valley Civilisation[1] (IVC), also known as the Indus
Civilisation, was a Bronze Age civilisation in the northwestern regions
of South Asia, lasting from 3300 BCE to 1300 BCE, and in its mature
form 2600 BCE to 1900 BCE.[2][a] Together with ancient Egypt and
Mesopotamia, it was one of three early civilisations of the Near East
and South Asia, and of the three, the most widespread, its sites
spanning an area from much of Pakistan, to northeast Afghanistan, and
northwestern India.[3][b] The civilisation flourished both in the alluvial
plain of the Indus River, which flows through the length of Pakistan,
and along a system of perennial monsoon-fed rivers that once coursed
in the vicinity of the Ghaggar-Hakra, a seasonal river in northwest India
and eastern Pakistanm
History
• The term Harappan is sometimes applied to the Indus civilisation
after its type site Harappa, the first to be excavated early in the
20th century in what was then the Punjab province of British India
and is now Punjab, Pakistan.[5][c] The discovery of Harappa and soon
afterwards Mohenjo-daro was the culmination of work that had
begun after the founding of the Archaeological Survey of India in the
British Raj in 1861.[6] There were earlier and later cultures called Early
Harappan and Late Harappan in the same area. The early Harappan
cultures were populated from Neolithic cultures, the earliest and
best-known of which is Mehrgarh, in Balochistan, Pakistan.[7][8]
Harappan civilisation is sometimes called Mature Harappan to
distinguish it from the earlier cultures
