Question

A necklace from this site made with steatite (“STEE-uh-tite”) beads capped with gold was split in half and shared between two countries during a transfer of over 12,000 objects found here during the 1940s. An artifact found at this site of a possibly phallic, three-headed god was linked by John Marshall with a later god’s epithet “lord of animals”; that (10[1])artifact is the Pashupati (10[1])seal. Jonathan (10[1])Mark Kenoyer criticized the identification of the “Great Granary” at this site by Mortimer Wheeler for lacking any evidence of grain storage. Statues known as the Priest-King (-5[1])and the Dancing (10[1])Girl were found at this site. (-5[1])Over 40,000 people who may have lived at this site had access to the Great Bath. For 10 points, name this site in Sindh, the largest site in the Harappan or Indus River Valley civilization. ■END■ (10[2])
