Detailed explanation-1: -Indus civilization, also known as the Indus valley Civilisationor Harappan civilization, is the earliest known urban culture of the Indian subcontinent. The nuclear dates of the Civilisation appear to be about 2500–1700 BCE, though the southern sites may have lasted later into the 2nd millennium BCE.
Detailed explanation-2: -Harappan civilisation was India’s first civilisation. The Indus civilisation is also known as the Harappan Civilisation, after its type site, Harappa, which was the first of its sites to be excavated in what was then British India’s Punjab province and is now Pakistan, early in the twentieth century.
Detailed explanation-3: -By 2600 BC, the Indus Valley Civilization had entered into a mature stage. The early Harappan communities were turning into large urban centers, like Harappa and Mohenjodaro in Pakistan and Lothal in India.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Indus Valley civilization was essentially an urban civilization, and people lived in well-planned and well-built cities, which were also centres of commerce. Mohenjodaro and Harappa’s remains indicate great commercial cities-perfectly planned, carefully constructed, and well cared about.
