The Indus River Valley (India) Class Activity: Examine the placards provided & generate 3 conclusions about the geography of the Indus River Valley & its impact on the people of this region

Seasonal monsoons caused summer rains & floods

The people were well protected on the Indian “subcontinent” by the oceans, mountains, & deserts that surrounded the Indus River Valley

India began along the Indus River, which flooded & left behind fertile soil

Lasting Contributions Specialized Workers: –Indian society was divided by the “caste system” which divided people based on their purity in Hinduism.

Lasting Contributions

Government: Little is known about Indus government other than they were ruled by kings

Lasting Contributions Advanced cities: Indus cities were laid out in a grid system with high walls & citadel of major buildings

Lasting Contributions ■ Religion: –Believed in a polytheistic religion called Hinduism –Hindus believe that one’s soul is reborn until moksha is achieved (reincarnation) –Moksha (enlightenment or nirvana) is the spiritual release from human form –A soul’s karma (good or bad deeds) effect reincarnation

Lasting Contributions Writing: ●Indus writing has not been fully translated so much of Indus life is still a mystery ●Writing contained about 400 symbols that were both pictograms & phonetic characters

Lasting Contributions ■ Technology: –Advanced plumbing; Most houses had toilets & private bathrooms connected to underground sewer systems –Standard, oven-baked bricks

Lasting Contributions
