Detailed explanation-1: -The Correct Option is Both I and II. Dholavira is located on Khadir Beyt in the Rann of Kutch. It is divided into three parts. The site was in news quite recently and it is expected that you know this.
Detailed explanation-2: -Dholavira is flanked by two storm water channels; the Mansar in the north, and the Manhar in the south. In the town square, there is a area high above the ground, called the “Citadel”.
Detailed explanation-3: -The citadel at Dholavira, an archaeological site in the State of Gujarat, India, is situated in the southern part of the city. Like Harappa and Mohenjodaro-other ancient cities and archaeological sites, once Dholavira also had a geometrical plan of three divisions – the citadel, the middle town and the lower town.
Detailed explanation-4: -While Dholavira is the larger of the two most remarkable excavations of the Indus Valley Civilization, it is known for its water harvesting system and the fact that the site was constructed entirely with bricks. Lothal, on the other hand, was known as the oldest known dockyard.
