This is the thread count, when the cotton is constructed, if counted the number of squares in a inch of the said fabric you would have 60, hence the term 60 square.

The higher the thread count the finer the fabric, so up goes the quality, and price,

A good quality cotton fabric would be a percale quality, around 500 thread count.

Which fabric was first produced in the Indus valley called 'sindon' by Greeks?

Sindon has come to mean "fine linen" especially in Biblical writings (sadin is another term used). However, it is probably based on the word sindh or sindhus which often meant Indian (Indus) fabric, which would be cotton-based. Later calico, another cotton-based fabric was named after Calicut (now Kozhikode) in India. While ancient India used cotton, jute, wool, hemp, kenaf and flax for various textiles it primarily exported cotton products, which like silk and ramie from early China, was unique. Europe primarily used flax, wool and hemp (sackcloth) although the latter is very coarse and uncomfortable as clothing.
