European historians tend to ignore evidence given by indigenous groups, preferring to spin their own theories about the past, especially with reference to India. So we are told by them that Indus script may never be deciphered, when it was deciphered in 2010, and the results may be seen at Facebook on the Indus Script Dictionary page. Also, we are told by these same academics that Indo-Iranians were invaders who destroyed a great civilization, when the genetic evidence from South Asia indicates that Indo-Iranian people were native to India and split off from the Ancestral South Indian population around 40,000 years ago. See 'Archeogenetics of South Asia' on Wikipedia for more information on this.
The bricks used by the Harappan civilization were typically made of baked clay, providing durability and uniformity, with standard sizes that facilitated construction. In contrast, Mesopotamian bricks were often sun-dried and varied in size, while Egyptian bricks were primarily made from mud and straw, also sun-dried. The Harappans' advanced brick-making techniques allowed for more sophisticated urban planning and drainage systems in their cities, such as Mohenjo-Daro and Harappa. Overall, the quality and uniformity of Harappan bricks contributed to their distinctive architectural style compared to those in Mesopotamia and Egypt.
Early Chinese civilization, centered around the Yellow River, developed unique cultural and social structures compared to Egypt and Mesopotamia. While all three civilizations relied on river systems for agriculture, Chinese society emphasized family and ancestor worship, whereas Mesopotamia focused on city-states and polytheistic beliefs. Additionally, China's relative geographic isolation influenced its continuity and self-sufficiency, fostering distinct philosophical traditions like Confucianism and Daoism, unlike the more fragmented political landscapes seen in Egypt and Mesopotamia. Overall, while they shared commonalities as riverine cultures, their social, political, and philosophical developments were markedly different.

The Mesopotamians did not have access to boulders and huge stones or to the labourers which the Egyptians managed easily for their monument construction. The bureaucracy was indefinitely affected by the structures. And Mesopotamian more pragmatic in their thinking did not believe in the Egyptian preparation for afterlife.So here we are to compare and contrast Egypt and Mesopotamia. Both these civilizations carried out extensive trading but the economic overtone varied in most cases. Mesopotamia was more technological in its approach and the environment was very difficult to manage than the Nile valley. The contacts of trade were a lot vaster and far flung. And special importance was given to the merchant class and commercial law. The social differences were vast. Like the difference in social status of women in the two contrary civilizations. It is concluded that in Egyptian society women were given more importance to. To stabilize the Egyptian monarchy women of the upper class were important and were treated with much care and respect which wasn't the case in Mesopotamian. Since these civilizations grew up in similar environments they had a symbiotic relationship. Though there are doubts but Egyptian is certainly older to Mesopotamian. Their origins are largely different so is their way of working. Egypt was a more stable civilization compared to Mesopotamia and also more full of life and mirth. Economically perhaps Mesopotamia flourished more than Egypt and in art and culture Egypt edged over Mesopotamia. Though a real comparison would involve a more vast study of the various aspects of society, Mesopotamia had a very violent internal history. Historians often points out that inter war within the civilization led to its downfall.
They were not concerned with the afterlife.they did not erect monumentsPeople of the Harappan civilization had stamp seals for signing their names, ceramics, bronze, copper, silver, gold, ivory, cotton and silk, running water and drains, brick houses, boats, and a port at Lothal in India. They had carnelian and agate beads and shell bangles, also.
The people of the Harappan civilization were unique compared to those of most other ancient civilization. They were monotheistic, they traded with Mesopotamia, and mummified the dead.

Older than the inhabitants of Mesopotamia, and the first to form an advanced civilization that included the oldest systems... The traces of the civilization they built still bear witness to the extent of the progress and civilization of the Sumerians
