Answer 1

Answer:

1920

Explanation:

This was R. D. Banerji, an officer of the Archaeological Survey of India, two years after major excavations had begun at Harappa, some 590 km to the north. Large-scale excavations were carried out at the site under the direction of John Marshall, K. N.

Answer 2

Until the final 10 years of his directorship, virtually no attempt was made to examine Indo-Pakistani prehistoric remains. Then came the dramatic finds at Harappā (1921) and Mohenjo-daro (1922), in present-day Pakistan. The Indian Archaeological Survey’s excavations of these and other sites revealed an ancient civilization that flourished from about 2500 to 1750 BC over an area covering much of Pakistan and corners of India and Afghanistan. Eight years after his retirement, Marshall completed editing Mohenjo-Daro and the Indus Civilization, 3 vol. (1931). He was knighted in 1914.
