Moenjodaro, in present-day Pakistan, preserves an important city of the Indus civilization. Its streets and brick buildings offer a way to think about urban planning rather than only royal monuments. The wider civilization extended across parts of present-day Pakistan and India. Our scene is a speculative reconstruction: roofs, colors and daily activity are uncertain, even when the archaeological plan provides a foundation.
