Towns and cities are made
Dozens or even a lot of towns and cities are made in the Indus Valley. The buildings were all made of mud-brick and stones. There were two parts of the Indus Valley. The lower part was filled with small houses and the larger part was filled with big or even large houses. -

The Indus Seals
After Alexander Cunningham found a little carved stone in Harappa, a lot of similar stones were found. These stones are called the Indus Seals. Most of the stones have imaginary animals and have an inscription. Many archeologists have tried for years to understand the language. -
Government and society
Only a little is known about the Indus rulers. There are not any large burial sites full of treasures like the ones for pharaohs in Egypt. We don't know if they were ruled by governors or rich merchants. -
Mohenjo- daro citadel

Undecided art

How you now a person was important
You now a person was important when they have a headband and a patterned cloak. -
The largest cities
Two of the largest cities that developed were Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro. At least 50,000 people lived in these urban cities. -
Large and small houses
The large houses were for the richer people. The lower housing areas were for the poor people. These houses were great because of their straight, wide streets. They also had an orderly grid design. That neat, logical layout is common in larger cities, but it hasn't been found a lot in really old cities.
