Read the passage and answer the question: |
What belief do pottery and ornaments found in some graves in Harappa indicate? |
The people were rich. People did not want to leave anything behind after death. These could be used in the afterlife. None of the above. |
These could be used in the afterlife. |
The correct answer is Option 3 - These could be used in the afterlife. At burials in Harappan sites the dead were generally laid in pits. Sometimes, there were differences in the way the burial pit was made – in some instances, the hollowed-out spaces were lined with bricks. Some graves contain pottery and ornaments, perhaps indicating a belief that these could be used in the afterlife. |
