In modern-day Pakistan is a site that was once home
to as many as 30,000 people of the Indus Valley civilization. We know
it as Mohenjo-Daro. In English, the name means "Mound of the Dead." The ruins of Mohenjo-Daro are a
window into the mysterious civilization of the Indus Valley people. We
know they were advanced. They had running water, a below ground sewer
system, and possibly a forerunner to the modern bank. We will see (or
read) just how much the people of Mohenjo-Daro lived like us as we
discuss the ruins of their city.
