The Indus Valley Civilisation, also known as the Harappan Civilisation, was a major early civilisation, existing from 3300-1300 BCE. It covered much of modern-day Pakistan and northwest India, as well as possessing at least one trading colony in northeast Afghanistan.[1]
Over 1400 Indus Valley civilisation sites have been discovered,[2] of which 925 sites are in India and 475 in Pakistan.[3] Only 40 sites on the Indus valley had been discovered in the pre-Partition era[4] by archaeologists.
The most widely-known Indus Valley sites are Mohenjo-daro and Harappa; Mohenjo-Daro is located in modern-day Sindh, while Harappa is in Pakistani Punjab.[5] in British India, around 1,100 (80%) sites are located on the plains between the rivers Ganges and Indus.[3] The oldest known site of the Indus Valley Civilization, Bhirrana,[6] and the largest site, Rakhigarhi,[7] are located in the Indian state of Haryana. More than 90% of the inscribed objects and seals that were discovered were found at ancient urban centres along the Indus river in Pakistan, mainly in Harappa and Mohenjo-daro.[8][9] More than 50 IVC burial sites have been found, including at Rakhigarhi (first site with genetic testing), Sanauli, Farmana, Kalibangan, Lothal, Dholavira, Mehrgarh, Harappa, Chanhudaro, and Mohenjo-daro.[10]
