Detailed explanation-1: -Numerous objects found in excavation include seated and standing figures, copper and stone tools, carved seals, balance-scales and weights, gold and jasper jewellery, and children’s toys.
Detailed explanation-2: -The animals preserved include the tiger, the Indian bison, the ‘unicorn’ bull, and the “’unicorn’ with two zebu-like “horns". The occurrence of both one-and two-horned bulls does not prove, as has been claimed, that they are two different animal species.
Detailed explanation-3: -2500 B.C.E. Excavations from sites in the Indus Valley included many figurines made from terracotta, some of which were clearly for entertainment, including whistles shaped like birds, small animals including bulls with moveable heads and horns, and toy carts. Archaeologists classified the monkey figurine as a toy.
