The life of the 'Late Harappan Culture' was mainly?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option 1 - Rural
By around 1800 BCE, most of the Mature Harappan sites, particularly in regions like Cholistan, were abandoned. This indicates a significant decline in population and activity in these areas.
Expansion into new settlements: At the same time, there was a population expansion into new settlements in regions such as Gujarat, Haryana, and western Uttar Pradesh
Overall, there was a decline in the production of artefacts, as fewer materials were used to make fewer things.
House construction techniques deteriorated, and large public structures were no longer produced.
This suggests a shift towards a more rural way of life as we move from Mature Harappan Culture to Late Harappan Culture.
