History of India, 3300 BC to 2600 BC, The Early Harappan Phase

Around 3300 BC, the Indus Valley Civilization started in the region of present-day Pakistan, which was a part of ancient India.

This civilization is also known as the Harappan civilization, named after the first site discovered in 1921, Harappa.

During this time period, the Harappan people built sophisticated urban centers, with well-planned cities, town, and villages.

They also developed a complex system of writing, which has still not been deciphered.

An extensive network of trade was established with Mesopotamia, Egypt, and other regions.

The Harappan people developed a highly efficient irrigation system, which was used to cultivate crops such as wheat, barley, peas, and sesame.

Tools used during the period were made of stone, bone, and metal.
