Why is the Indus Civilization called protohistoric?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because its script exists but is not fully deciphered
The Indus Civilization left many seals and other objects bearing signs that are generally regarded as a script, but those signs have not been securely deciphered. As a result, archaeological evidence is abundant while direct written information remains unavailable. The civilization had cities and many artefacts, so options B, C and D are false. Therefore, option A is correct.
