Do you want to know what are these items??
“ This is a ladle made out of conch shell. Shell was used to make special jewellery, inlay and small objects like this This ladle.”   Well during those times jewelleries were not as attractive as now. You can see it for  yourself!!
“ This is a group of chert weights. Weights like this were used throughout the Indus Valley. Archaeologists believe that they were used in trade or taxation. The weights found in the Indus Valley seem to be part of a standardized system.”  Weights like this??  Can you imagine??
“ Ornaments including headbands, earrings, necklaces, pendants and bangles were made of various semiprecious stones, steatite, faience, shell, terracotta, copper and sometimes gold, showing technological sophistication in pyrotechnology and in metalworking. According to Professor J. M. Kenoyer, ornaments may have been visible symbols of status or rank indicated in part by the material used.”   During those times gold was only used sometimes to make jeweleries. Isn’t it surprising??
“ Triangular terracotta cakes were common at most Indus sites. Many of them have been found inside kilns and hearths, it is more likely that they were used for retaining heat during pottery firing and/or cooking. A few of the triangular cakes are incised with human figures, which has led some scholars to interpret them as objects used in fire rituals. Terracotta cakes were either triangular or round/oval and sometimes had a finger impression in the center.”
