Explanation:

Fire altar, a structure which was assigned ritual significance by the archaeologist was found at Kalibangan and Lothal.
Nageshwar and Balakot (located in Sindh, Pakistan) were specialized centers for making shell objects – including bangles, ladles, and inlay.
Miniature pots of faience, perhaps used as perfume bottles, are found mostly in Mohenjodaro and Harappa, and there are none from small settlements like Kalibangan.
Water reservoirs discovered in Dholavira, Gujarat, might have served the purpose of storing water for agricultural needs.
