4. GEOGRAPHY The Indus valley was by main rivers, the Indus river. The Indus river was very important to Indus life . The river provided irrigation, it also created fertile land for farming. In the middle of India is Deccan plateau, which might have helped Indus people from foreign invaders. The Himalayas are also located near Indus valley, as the Hindu Kush mountain range.

8. SCIENCE People of Indus civilization achieved great accuracy in measuring length, mass, and time. They were among the first to develop a system of uniform weights and measures Their measurement are said to be extremely precise ; however , a comparison of available objects indicates large scale across the Indus territories. The smallest division ever recorded on a scale was approximately 1.704.

9. Arts and culture The Indus civilization were the first to weave cloth. They also created sculpture pots and jewelry. One of their biggest artist achievement was the great bath which we think was used for religious ceremonies and public bathing
