• Archaeologists had also find some small buildings but they were not
common
LOWER TOWN
• The "Lower Town" is made up of numerous lower mounds that lie
to the east and may represent multiple walled neighbourhoods.
• The avenues are several meters wide and have drains running down
the middle or side of the road.
• The avenues divide the Lower Town
into many blocks. Alleyways and lanes
further divided these blocks.
• Features of Houses in Lower Town
Most of the homes are made of baked
bricks in a standard size of 28 x 14 x 7
centimetres.
• Archaeological evidence, such as the
remains of stairways, seems to suggest
that many of the buildings had two
storeys.
• People had access to clean water
either from wells within their homes or
from public wells in the streets.
• Every house had its own bathroom
paved with bricks, with drains
connected through the wall to the
street drains.
• Some houses have remains of
staircases to reach a second storey or
the roof.
• Over 700 public and private wells have
been found at Mohenjo-Daro
