Question

Give any two characteristics of citadel

Answer 1

Citadel is the main “fortified area” of a city or city. It can be a castle, fortress or a center of the fort. This word is a small part of the word "city" and thus means "small town", hence it is called a small part of the city because it is the defensive core.

Answer 2

Answer:

• Important buildings such as the Great Bath, granary, assembly halls and workshops were built in this part of the city.

• The citadel points towards an elaborate and efficient planning of the city which justifies that the Harappan Civilisation was an urban civilisation.
