Q. Which among the following Harappan site was destroyed by fire?
Answer: Kot Diji
Notes: Kot Diji, located about 25 kilometers south-east of Mohenjo-daro in Pakistan's Sindh province, served as an important pre-Harappan urban center occupied between 3500 BCE and 2800 BCE. Archaeologists have determined that this early site was ultimately destroyed by a devastating fire sometime around the start of the Mature Harappan period, based on a thick ash layer found covering the ruins. Succeeding layers indicate it was abandoned and not re-occupied.
