Please watch the following videos and consider the ruins of Mohenjo Daro or Dholavira. What might the built environment, such as the raised platforms, storage facilities, baths, street patterns, and extensive water supply and waste systems tell us about potential social or political institutions of this Indus Valley culture? What do you suspect were the primary sociocultural institutions, and why?
Now, consider the city you currently live in.(Savannah, GA) Tell your peers where that is and what specific buildings or architectural complexes there tell about the social values and forms of interaction in your city.
