These cities contained well organized wastewater drainage systems, trash collection systems, possibly even public granaries and baths. Although there were large walls and citadels, there is no evidence of monuments, palaces, or temples.

The geographic setting had monsoons, floods, and earthquakes in the area, affecting it by giving it floods for farming and was useful. The Indus Valley civilization submerged as a civilization around 3300 BCE. Their golden age was around 2600 BCE to 1900 BCE. They collapsed around 1800 BCE due to natural causes, many left due to major floods and earthquakes making life harder, so there was no point in living around the area. They communicated with each other using Indus script. Their speaking language being Dravidian. We do not understand a lot of the Indus script. It has been very difficult in recent years to decipher and learn about this writing. So with the little knowledge that we have, it is clear to say that we do not know much about the writing of the Indus Valley.

Some trades were silver, gold, colored gems, metals, flints, and seashells. The geography of the Indus valley was good and bad, they had mountains and deserts, but for trade it could've been very difficult to get across these areas.

They were major trade partners with Persia, Mesopotamia, and China but Mesopotamia was the biggest partner.

Also they created sculpture, seals, pottery, and jewelry from materials, such as terracotta, metal, and stone.

Important innovations of this civilization include standardized weights and measures, seal carving, and metallurgy with copper, bronze, lead, and tin. A figurine in bronze, known as the Dancing Girl, is only 11 centimeters high and shows a female figure in a pose that suggests the presence of some choreographed dance form enjoyed by members of the civilization.

Many scholars believe that the collapse of the Indus Valley Civilization culture was caused by climate change. Populations largely abandoned cities, migrating toward the east.

These cities were often made on man-made hills and most of the homes had internal plumbing. The city was split into two different parts, acropolis, and lower town, according to Wikipedia, “The lower town consisted of a lower-valued residential building located on the eastern side of the city, while the upper acropolis would be on the western side of the city which contained the higher value buildings and public buildings.”. Some sophisticated planning of this city was the indoor plumbing, according to the crash course we watched in class, The indoor plumbing was connected to a well and then it would change the water. Another sophisticated planning thing that they did was according to google, “One of the most remarkable achievements of the Indus Valley people was their sophisticated city planning. The cities of the early Mesopotamians were a jumble of buildings connected by a maze of winding streets. In contrast, the people of the Indus laid out their cities on a precise grid system.”. This shows that the Indus valley civilization was super sophisticated in how they planned their cities and settlements. the sources where google, wickapedia, and crash course. -reid predeger https://padlet.com/ellison_katherine1/5td69vynzcqduuqj/wish/1747047523 2021-09-16 21:47:26 UTC https://padlet.com/ellison_katherine1/5td69vynzcqduuqj/wish/1747047523 The Indus Valley Economical Life https://padlet.com/ellison_katherine1/5td69vynzcqduuqj/wish/1747047625 The Indus Valley Civilization was located on the Indus River, in north India. The geographical effect on the civilization benefited the civilization because it got them more food that they were able to rely on, leading to their downfall. The Indus Valley Civilization emerged in 3000 B.C. The peak of the Indus Valley Civilization was in 2600 B.C to 1900 B.C. It had fallen in 1900 to 1800 B.C because of earthquakes that shifted the river's course, destroying the food supply, making them move out of the area. Some of the major products for trade were gold, skins, and other valuable animal parts. The mountains made the trade for the Indus Valley harder to get to other civilizations, therefore they only had so many routes to go to so they used the water to get to other places. Some of the major trading partners for the Indus Valley were the Mesopotamia Civilization as well as anyone around the area. They traded hides, gold, silver, and other needed items.

The symbols that they used where extremly short so we can understand if they where used for writing or if they where just symbols. They did use pictographic writing for math and for regular communication. It was inveted by and used by the people of Mohenjo-daro. We can read the language just not very much of it because they used at least 400 picture-signs that are not letters like in our alphabet.
