Mohenjo-Daro

We recently received information on this unique archeological site in Pakistan:Mohenjo Daro. There are over 100 images online that were taken over the course of 30 years! Here is a description of the region:

"Mohenjo Daro, or "Mound of the Dead" is an ancient Indus Valley Civilization city that flourished between 2600 and 1900 BCE. It was one of the first world and ancient Indian cities. The site was discovered in the 1920s and lies in Pakistan's Sindh province."

This is a fascinating site to explore if you're interested in ancient civilizations, archeology, or anthropology. Have fun!

Here is an illustrated essay on the ancient city of Mohenjo Daro.
