Answer:

Harappan Civilization

Explanation:

    The Indus River Valley Civilization (also known as Harappan Civilization) was a Bronze Age society that stretched from northeast Afghanistan to Pakistan and northwest India.

    Harappans are believed to have used the Indus Script, a language consisting of symbols. A collection of texts written on clay and stone tablets unearthed in Harappa, dated 3300-3200 BC, contains marks in the shape of a plant and in the shape of a trident. This Indus Script suggests that writing developed independently in the Indus River Valley Civilization from the script used in Mesopotamia and Ancient Egypt.

    Up to 600 distinct Indus symbols have been found on seals, small pills, ceramic pots and more than a dozen other materials. Typical Indus inscriptions are no more than four or five characters long, most of which are very small. The longest on a single surface, less than 1 inch (or 2.54 cm), is 17 signs long. The characters are largely pictorial, but include many abstract signs that do not appear to have changed over time.

   The inscriptions are believed to have been written mainly from right to left, but it is not clear whether this script is a complete language. Without a "Rosette Stone" to use as a comparison with other writing systems, the symbols remained undecipherable for linguists and archaeologists.

skad [1K]
B. canadian territories are under a constitutional monarchy

Canada still exists such that the Queen of England is the head of state or formal representative of canada. However they are protected by a constitution and act as an independent nation with a head of government (the prime minister) taking care of actual governmental affairs.

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Latitudes

Explanation:

The distance traveling in the northern and the southern hemisphere from the equator is measured in terms of latitudes. It is expressed in degrees. These are the geographical coordinates that specify a particular location on earth. It ranges from 0° to 90°, where the 0° line is the equator that divides the earth into two halves. And the 90° latitude area in the polar region of both the hemisphere. The earth is bulging at the equatorial region and flattened at the poles.

The latitude plays an important role in the identification of any place on earth.

Thus, the north and south of the equator are measured in the degrees of latitudes.
