Question

10. State the role of iron in the development of agriculture during the Vedic Age.
11. Give two features of Painted Grey Ware (PGW) Pottery​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Iron was the hardest of all metals available at that time thus people began making new tools and implements with iron such as axes, plough heads, sickles and hoes etc. With the use of these iron tools, people could easily clean the forests to cultivate lands and brought a large land under cultivation.

Characterized by a style of fine, grey pottery painted with geometric patterns in black, the PGW culture is associated with village and town settlements, domesticated horses, ivory-working, and the advent of iron metallurgy.
