Mohenjo-Daro literally means \u201cMound of the Dead Men\u201d but it is just a term used to describe the 5000-year-old city. Its original name still remains unknown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bullock carts were mainly used as a mode of transport. Girls in Mohenjo-Daro are said to have worn bangles from their upper arm. While men during the dressed up wearing a toga kind of a thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With 1,500 sites of the Indus Valley Civilisation, no evidence could be found of weapons or arms showing how peaceful the place was. No evidence of a king, a queen or a ruler ruling the city has ever been found.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a well-planned built city with a proper waste disposal system. It is also fascinating that multistoried buildings were found at the site of Mohenjo-Daro. It exhibited the kind of infrastructure which would put our cities today to shame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mohenjo-Daro also housed a 8 feet deep, 23 feet wide made of bricks waterproof public bathing pool. There were small changing rooms and bathrooms surrounding the great structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was probably a change in the direction of the Indus River which led to Mohen-jo-Daro being deserted. On the verge of corrosion, if not given critical attention, Mohenjo-Daro may be destroyed by 2030. Mohenjo-Daro is situated at the Larkana district in modern-day Sindh, Pakistan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KARACHI: The Sindh government has decided to launch an air safari service between Karachi and Mohenjo-daro, aiming to promote cultural tourism and showcase the province\u2019s rich historical heritage.
