Answer 1

The archaeological sources played an important role in constructing or/and reconstructing the history of a region.

The archaeological source of Indian history is only about two centuries old.

The archaeological source enhanced our knowledge about our past and also provided important materials, which we could not have been obtained otherwise.

Up to 1920, Indian civilization was considered to have begun about 6th century B.C. However, the excavations at Mohenjodaro, Kalibangan, and Harappa prove its antiquity to be of 5,000 B.C
