Which statement on the Harappan Civilisation is correct?
(A) Horse sacrifice was known to them.
(B) Cow was sacred to them.
(C) ‘Pashupati’ was venerated by them.
(D) The culture was not generally static.
Answer: (D) Potteries of the Harappan Civilization bring out the gradual evolutionary trend in the culture. It is on the basis of different types of potteries and ceramic art found over the different stages of the civilization, it can be said that Harappan culture was not static and did not disappear suddenly. While showing signs of decay, in course of time it rejuvenated itself by reviving some of the earlier ceramic traditions and evolving new ones in the transitional phase.
