Question

4. Name any 3 crafts known to the Harappan people? Write any 1 specific feature of each of them.​

Answer 1

All the works of Harappan art, including figurines of clay and terracota, stone and bronze sculpture, seals and beads, are products of skilled craftsmen. Harappans produced their own characteristic pottery which was made glossy and shining. The Harappan artists were skilled sculptors. The statue of a bearded man and the bronze statue of dancing girl are masterpieces of Harappan art. The sculpture in metal wax was done through the special lost wax process. The goldsmiths made jewellery of silver, gold and precious stones which were worn by both men and women such as necklace, armlets, earrings. Toys of birds, animals, figurines, carts and whistles were also made.
