Select your answer for: The ruins of the ancient site “Kot Diji” lie in proximity to______________?
Show answer

Answer: C. Khairpur

Explanation

Kot Diji is an important archaeological site of the Indus Valley Civilization. The ruins lie in close geographic proximity to Khairpur district. Excavations here revealed pre Harappan cultural layers and artifacts. The Indus Valley Civilization flourished across the Indus river basin. Khairpur is a prominent district located in the interior of Sindh. Pre-Harappan sites provide clues about the evolution of urban settlements.

Archaeologists study these stratified mounds to understand ancient societal growth. Heritage sites in Sindh attract researchers interested in prehistoric cultures. Protecting ancient ruins prevents the loss of irreplaceable historical data. Larkana is famous for housing the ruins of Mohenjodaro instead. Thatta is located in lower Sindh and features medieval Islamic architecture. Badin is situated in the southeastern coastal belt of the province.
