Answer 2

Archaeological sources are the main sources for studying the Harappan civilization because the archeological sources have played an important role in building or reconstructing a region's history.

Indian history's archeological source is only about "two centuries" old. The archeological source provided important materials that could not otherwise have been obtained. It also enhances the past generation source.

Coins are an "important numismatic source" telling us about the Kings of Saka-Parthian, Indo-Greek, and Kushana. Ashoka and Samudragupta's inscriptions provide valuable information about the people of that period's social and political status.
