MOENJODARO

Moenjodaro is the cradle of the Indus civilization. This pre-historic civilization flourished from the third till the middle of the second millennium B.C, when it mysteriously disappeared. Archaeological excavators place Moenjodaro among the most spectacular ancient cities of the world. It had mud-brick and baked-brick buildings, an elaborate covered drainage system with soakpits, a large and imposing building (probably a palace) and citadel mound which incorporates in its margin a system of solid burnt brick towers.
