To which civilisation can the port town of Lothal be traced to?
Harappan Civilisation
The correct answer is Harappan Civilisation.
Evidence of trade connections with Mesopotamia (modern Iraq), the Persian Gulf, and possibly Egypt has been found at Harappan sites, including Lothal. Items traded likely included beads made of semi-precious stones, metals, timber, and agricultural products. The sophisticated urban planning and apparent standardisation across widespread sites indicate a well-organised society capable of complex economic activities like long-distance trade, which Lothal played a crucial role in facilitating for the southern regions of the Harappan domain.
