(Short and to the point,lol)
Indus people probably worshipped Mother Goddess, in addition to male and female deities. They worshiped a father God who might be a progenitor of the race and probably was a prototype of Siva as the Lord of the Animals...

They believed in some kind of a tree of life, which is depicted in the seals as a Pipal or Acasia tree, defended by a guardian spirit against an evil force symbolized as a tiger. In seals, the guardian spirit is depicted variously as a bull, a snake, a goat, a mythical creature or animal. They worshiped fertility symbols such as round stones and pierced stones, a practice that probably preceded the worship of Siva and parvathi in the form Sivalinga.

According to Prof Spyridon Marinatos the Indus civilization was probably similar to that of ancient Greece. Both worshiped Mother Goddess and the Bull played an important role in their religious lives.
