Question

The famous Pasupati seal found at Mohenjodaro does not have the following animals impressed on it.

A Tiger
B Buffalo
C Rhinoceros
D Horse

Answer & Explanation

Answer: [D]

The Pasupati seal, discovered at the ancient Indus Valley Civilization site of Mohenjodaro, is a well-known artifact from that period. It depicts a seated figure, often identified as a deity, surrounded by various animals. However, the animal that is not impressed on the seal is the horse.

The Pasupati seal showcases several animals, including a tiger, a buffalo, and a rhinoceros, among others. These animal representations are significant in understanding the iconography and cultural practices of the Indus Valley Civilization.

While horses were known to exist in other ancient civilizations and became more prominent in later periods in the Indian subcontinent, they are not depicted on the Pasupati seal or found as prominent symbols in the art of the Indus Valley Civilization.

Therefore, the correct answer is D) Horse.
