Archaeological evidence from Harappan sites indicates specialization in various crafts. Balakot, located near the coast (present-day Pakistan), was an important centre for the production of shell objects, likely due to the availability of raw material. Kalibangan is known for ploughed fields and fire altars. Mohenjo-daro was a major urban centre with monumental architecture. Banawali yielded evidence of a toy plough and good quality barley.
