उत्तर

  • Archaeologists who excavated the site of Mehrgarh found evidence of many kinds of animal bones from the earliest levels.
    • These included bones of wild animals such as the deer and pig.
  • In later levels, they found more bones of sheep and goats.
  • And in still later levels, cattle bones are most common, suggesting that these were the animals that were kept generally by the people of Mehrgarh.
    • The people of Mehrgarh were hunters to start with and that herding became more important later.
