Indus valley civilization had evolved
around the Indus river. It includes the Harappan and Mohanjodaro as the
prominent cities which lies as the boundary of Afghanistan, Hindustan and
Pakistan. These was the one of the oldest civilization.
The
town under their civilization was properly planned and built.
The
houses and the built up were made using bricks and cement and it was really
strong as the structures can still be seen in the areas.
They
had a well developed drainage system which was about 5m in height to that it
could have been easily cleaned in the case of any kind of blockage.
Which
shows that people at that time were more concerned about their health and
hunger. Each and every house had toilets and bathrooms.
There
was a citadel built in the middle of the town for protection purposes.
They
had planned their houses in a design so that it may prevent floodage.
They
were very fond of jewellesies, uterils, toys etc.
There
was a place for city bath where people used to come for bath and it some entry
and exit point of water.
The
area at one side was covered by the Himalayas and on the other side by the
desert, so it was safe from immersion.
The
Harappan and Mohanjodaro used to trade as scals can be found.
There
was a huge well for the public water supply, there was separate area for gravy.
Overall the area was properly planned with a good
architectural and mathematical knowledge
