Detailed explanation-1: -Dholavira on the other hand, located near the Rann of Kutch was a port city, as excavations have revealed water reservoirs made of sandstone and mud-bricks. The city has thus revealed an interesting water harvesting and management system with the presence of dams that directed water to the reservoir.
Detailed explanation-2: -Dholavira is an important Harappan site located in Kutch region in Gujarat, India. It is renowned for its water management system, with a great network of stone cut reservoirs and canals which was vital in this rainfall deficient region.
Detailed explanation-3: -About 25 of the city’s 250 acres are taken up by 16 cut-rock reservoirs of various sizes, which harvested water from their catchment areas in the city as well as from two monsoon-season rivulets now called Mandsar and Manhar.
