hello

Explanation:

1. The Great Bath of Mohenjodaro is called the "earliest public water tank of the ancient world".It measures 11.88 × 7.01 metres, and has a maximum depth of 2.43 metres. Two wide staircases, one from the north and one from the south, served as the entry to the structure. A 1 metre wide and 40 centimetres high mound is present at the ends of these stairs. A hole was also found at one end of the Bath which might have been used to drain the water into it.

2.The types of crops that the Indus Civilization had was wheat, barley, peas, lentils, linseed, and mustard. Experts say that they might have grown cotton in the summer. They did not grow rice because it didn't grow well where they lived, but they did find white rice and fed it to their animals.Along with wheat and barley, Harappans used to cultivate rice, pulses, mustard etc. Harappan civilization was famous for growing cotton. ... Harappans cultivated rice rarely. Rice was found in Lothal, Gujara
