The correct answer is Option 3 - 3 3 - Sloppy and irreverent burial practice. Whereas a couple of them definitely seem to indicate a slaughter, … the bulk of the bones were found in contexts suggesting burials of the sloppiest and most irreverent nature. There is no destruction level covering the latest period of the city, no sign of extensive burning, no bodies of warriors clad in armour and surrounded by the weapons of war. The citadel, the only fortified part of the city, yielded no evidence of a final defence. -FROM G.F. DALES, “The Mythical Massacre at Mohenjodaro”, Expediton, 1964. |
