Detailed explanation-1: -Trade between Indus Valley and Mesopotamia appears rather skewed in IVC’s favour. IVC exported Gold jewelery, Ivory seals & boxes, Timber, Cotton textiles, Copper & bronze fish-hooks, Carnelian & precious stone beads, Live chicken, Shell & bone inlays, and even Water buffaloes.
Detailed explanation-2: -Like the Egyptian, Mesopotamian, and Nubian civilisation, the Indus River civilisation was dependant on farming. They also had a well-developed irrigation system, which meant that they did not have to rely on rain to grow their crops. A large portion of the harvest was given to public granaries for storage.
Detailed explanation-3: -Currently there is no evidence for trade (either direct or in-direct) between the Indus Civilization and Egypt or Minoan Crete.
