Assignment #1: Indus Valley Civilization
Read Source 2.2 A Seal from the Indus Valley in your Ways of the World textbook. Answer the following questions:
- How might a prominent landowner, a leading official, a clan head, or a merchant make use of such a seal?
- What meaning might you attach to the use of animals as totems or symbols of a particular group or individual?
- Notice the five characters of the Indus Valley script at the top of the seal. Do a little research on the script to understand why it has proved so difficult to decipher.
Each assignment is to be two to three pages in length, double-spaced, with no more than one-inch margins, and in Times New Roman 12-point font. Put your name and the assignment number on the first page. You do not need to use citations unless you use sources other than those listed above to compose your answers.
