Question 1MediumLevel 1
Why is widespread use of iron not associated with the Indus Civilization?सिंधु सभ्यता में लोहे का व्यापक उपयोग क्यों नहीं माना जाता?
Correct answer:सही उत्तर:A
The Indus Civilization is generally classified as a Bronze Age civilization because copper and bronze objects are well attested, whereas widespread iron technology belongs mainly to later periods in the subcontinent. This does not mean Harappans knew no metals; rather, iron was not their dominant technological material.सिंधु सभ्यता को सामान्यतः कांस्य युगीन सभ्यता कहा जाता है, क्योंकि तांबे और कांसे की वस्तुएं अच्छी तरह मिलती हैं, जबकि लोहे का व्यापक तकनीकी उपयोग भारतीय उपमहाद्वीप में बाद के कालों में बढ़ा। इसका अर्थ यह नहीं कि हड़प्पाई लोग किसी धातु से अनजान थे; केवल लोहा उनकी प्रमुख तकनीक नहीं था।
In the Chola period, temples were not only places of worship but also linked with what?चोल काल में मंदिर केवल पूजा स्थल नहीं बल्कि और किससे जुड़े थे?
Correct answer:सही उत्तर:A
Chola temples received land and other donations, employed specialists, supported festivals and craft production, stored resources, and interacted with local assemblies and communities. In this way they could function as important social, economic, cultural, and sometimes administrative institutions in addition to being places of worship. Their activities were not connected with deciphering the Indus script, Mauryan espionage, or prehistoric cave hunting.चोल मंदिरों को भूमि और अन्य दान मिलते थे; वे विशेषज्ञों को काम देते, उत्सव और शिल्प गतिविधियों को सहारा देते, संसाधन रखते और स्थानीय सभाओं तथा समुदायों से जुड़े रहते थे। इसलिए वे पूजा स्थलों के साथ सामाजिक, आर्थिक, सांस्कृतिक और कभी-कभी प्रशासनिक संस्थाएं भी थे। उनका संबंध सिंधु लिपि, मौर्य जासूसी या प्रागैतिहासिक गुफा-शिकार से नहीं था।
Northern Black Polished Ware is associated with which historical process?उत्तरी काली पालिशदार मृद्भांड किस ऐतिहासिक प्रक्रिया से जुड़ा माना जाता है?
Correct answer:सही उत्तर:A
Northern Black Polished Ware, or NBPW, is a fine, glossy pottery found at many sites associated with the rise of towns, expanding exchange, and state formation in the middle Ganga valley and other regions, especially around the Mahajanapada period. It is an archaeological indicator linked with the phase often called the second urbanisation. It is not evidence of printing, railways, or a specific first naval war.उत्तरी काली पालिशदार मृद्भांड, या NBPW, कई ऐसे स्थलों पर मिलता है जो नगरों के विकास, बढ़ते विनिमय और राज्य-निर्माण से जुड़े थे, विशेषकर मध्य गंगा घाटी और महाजनपद काल के संदर्भ में। इसलिए इसे दूसरे नगरीकरण की प्रक्रिया से जोड़ा जाता है। यह मुद्रण क्रांति, रेलवे विस्तार या किसी पहले समुद्री युद्ध का प्रमाण नहीं है।
