Answer 2

The Indus River Valley Civilization used a local form of writing called Indus script, which was inscribed on clay and soapstone stamp seals. The cities of this civilization were carefully planned and laid out in a grid pattern with running water and drainage serving most of the houses, which were made of mud brick and stone.

Answer 3

If you mean why a civilization developed there, it's because it was a river valley. In human history, people who have settled in river valleys have developed civilizations. A few other places have developed them, e.g. the Incas in South America, but almost all human civilizations have arisen in valleys.

The reasons are simple -- but that's another question.

Answer 4

The indus river valley civilization developed in what is now Pakistan in about 3600 bc. The Indus river valley was a great place for farming because of the floods that brought good farming mud called silt. Every thing we know about this civilization comes from archeologists because even though they had a written language no one knows how to read it. We do know they built building out of mud brick and the 1st roads beside them. There most important building was the great bath it was used for baptismal purposes. They even had a primative Plumbing system. They traded with messopotamia and never went to war which meant they were peaceful. It was a good thing until they got conquered in 1600 BC and had no weapons to fight with.
