Question: The great granary of Indus valley civilization has been discovered by which site?

Answer: Granary is a brick structure with 45 mtr north-south and 45 mtr east-west. It was found at Mohenjodaro at Harappa. It is called the Indus Valley civilisation as it was the earliest site of civilization. The Great Granary was the largest building discovered at Mohenjodaro. Granary was built on a raised platform to protect it from flooding. It consists of rows of circular brick platforms. It was built from threshing grains because of remains like wheat and barley found in the floor’s crevices. 

The brick structure has a central passage about seven mtr wide and is partly paved with two rows of six rooms. The front measures 15.2 X 6.1 Mtrs and has three walls with air space. The structure of granaries was based on comparisons with Roman buildings. Rulers and officials meet in such large buildings. The major sites of the Indus valley civilization were Mohenjodaro and Harappa. 

They were situated south and north of the Indus river. The sites located in India are Kali bangan, lothal, Ropar, rakhigarhi etc. Indus valley civilization is in grid type pattern where structures of offices, houses and markets were patterned like a grid. Kalibangan, a site in Rajasthan, has a bronze figure of a bull. During the Indus valley civilization, many beads and ornaments were found like necklaces, anklets, earrings, fillets etc. They were made up of metals and gemstones. Storehouses were developed in Harappa, Mohenjodaro and lothal.
