Q. In which of the following Harappan sites archaeologists discovered a middle town, as distinct from the citadel and the lower town?
Answer: Dholavira
Notes: At the Harappan site of Dholavira located in modern day Gujarat, archaeologists discovered a middle town between the citadel and lower town. This demonstrates a unique three-part hierarchical model of urban planning not seen at other major Harappan cities. Dholavira was also notable for its complex water management system including channels and reservoirs to conserve rainwater. Recent excavations have uncovered a signboard with ten large letters of the Harappan script that may provide clues to help decipher this unsolved script.
