    Cow!
  • I guess its cow
  • Waise bull toh tha Ab pata nahi cow bhi ho sakta hai
    main doubt yahi tha, cow or tiger.. im sure that tiger was not found during that time. There is no seal for cows but not sure about terracota art depecting a cow.

    Match the following :

    List I
    a. paleolithic
    b. mesolithic
    c. neolithic
    d. chalcolithic

    List II
    1. Domestication of animals and plants
    2. Food gatherers
    3. Hunters and Herders
    4. Farmers

    (no options, plz match as it seems fit)
  • Pashupati seal dekh lo toh game ulta pad jaaye
    didn't get you dude ??
  • paleolithic-hunters and herders
    mesolithic- food gatherers
    neolithic- domestication of animals and plants
    chalcolithic- farmers
  • I think correct answer is COW, as rightly stated by Nasela, in Pasupati's seal u can find Rhino, tiger, elephant and buffalo
  • I think correct answerer is COW, as rightly stated by Nasela, in Pasupati's seal u can find Rhino, tiger, elephant and buffalo
    I am very sure the answer for this cryptic question will be tiger. As some sarkari book either ncert or govt report mentions the fact that Indus people didn't know about this cat.
    I will mention the book details if I come across it again.
    @Nasela_Batman Tiger was known to them. Check NCERT Class XI. Cow was not represented in their seals.

    @connectkushal Thanks for making me go through the NCERT. Please keep the answers correct. Thanks.

    @Mistborn glad you read it (new ncert i guess??). so most appropriate ans should be cow. waise wiki says thr is terracotta artwork of cow as well, but pashupati seal is more common knowlwdge. @Nasela_Batman sahi point out kiya, seal mai 1 of the 4 animal tiger hai. maine bhi padha tha tiger was not known to pple of ivc bt most appropriate ans hi choose karna padega.
