Buffalo
None of the above
Correct Answer:
None of the above
Explanation:
Bones found at Harappan sites indicate the domestication of cattle, sheep, goats, buffaloes and pigs. Archaeo-zoologists or zooarchaeologists study animal bones to understand domestication patterns and animal exploitation. Bones of wild species like boar, deer, and gharial are also found, suggesting the presence of both domesticated and hunted animals. Fish and fowl bones are also discovered at Harappan sites, indicating the consumption of aquatic and avian resources.
