Bronze Age in South Asia

The Bronze Age in South Asia, roughly from 3300 to 1300 BCE, was a period marked by the development of advanced societies, particularly the Indus Valley Civilization. This era saw the emergence of urban centers like Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro, characterized by sophisticated city planning, trade networks, and advancements in metallurgy, including the use of bronze for tools and ornaments. Agriculture flourished, and a written script, though still undeciphered, suggests complex social structures. This period laid foundational cultural influences for subsequent South Asian civilizations, contributing to the region's rich historical tapestry.
