Indus Valley Civilization characteristics

Statement 1 is incorrect: The Indus Valley people did not construct large palaces or temples. Archaeological evidence shows they built planned cities with residential structures, granaries, and public baths, but no monumental religious or palatial structures have been found. Statement 2 is correct: Evidence from seals and figurines suggests they worshipped female deities (mother goddess) and male deities, indicating a polytheistic or fertility-based religion. Statement 3 is incorrect: There is no archaeological evidence of chariots or horses being used in warfare during the Indus Valley period; horse remains are scarce and appear in later periods. The use of horse-drawn chariots is characteristic of Vedic peoples who came later. > IVC: No temples/palaces, fertility worship, NO chariots = Only statement 2 is correct.
