Q. Which of the following types of burial is not observed at Mohenjodaro?
(a) Complete burial
(b) Fractional burial
(c) Post-cremation burial
(d) Double burial
Ans: (d) Double burial
Explanation: At the archaeological site of Mohenjodaro, the type of burial that is not observed is (d) Double burial.
Mohenjodaro, one of the major cities of the ancient Indus Valley Civilization, has revealed several types of burials through archaeological excavations. These include complete burials, where the entire body is interred; fractional burials, where only certain body parts or skeletal remains are found; and post-cremation burials, where the remains of the deceased are buried after cremation.
However, double burials, where two individuals are buried together in the same grave, are not commonly observed at Mohenjodaro. The available evidence suggests that single burials were more prevalent at this site.
Therefore, the type of burial not observed at Mohenjodaro is double burial (option d).
