50. Read the passage below and answer the questions that follow based on your
understanding of the passage.

While early fanning and pastoral peoples of central and peninsular India were
adapting to a food- producing sodo -economic lifeway in the second and third millerrnia,
their contemporaries in the northwestem sector of the subcontinent had already
developed a cultural tradition characterized by urban and township centres of high
population density, p!ann£,d cities of mud- brick and tired- brick buildings with grid
pattern streets and drainage systems, copper and bronze metal technology,

om
standardization of weights and measures, unique works of art in ceramic and stone, a
writing system, extensive commercial networks and a complex social organization of
occupational specialists. This cultural achievement, which attained its mature phase
between 2500 and 2000 B.C., has been labelled the Indus Valley Civilization, the
Harappan Ovilization, the Indus Age and the Indian Bronze Age.

.c
The author is primarily coru:emed with :

(A) Neolithic and chalcolithic cultures of central and peninsular India.

ce
(B) Indus Civilization

(Q Contrast between the pace of cultural development between central and

peninsular India on OTif< hand and northwestem India on the other
ra
(D) Nomenclature of the Indus Ovilization.
