Description: The Indus Valley Civilization, also referred to as the Harappan Civilization, was a remarkable Bronze Age civilization that thrived in the Indus River Valley in present-day Pakistan and northwest India from 3300 BCE to 1300 BCE. This civilization gained recognition for its meticulously planned cities, advanced drainage systems, and intricate craftsmanship. The dimensions of the bead are 28.1 X 9.5 MM, and it weighs 5.5 grams Among the noteworthy artifacts associated with the Indus Valley Civilization, the faience two-sided bead round seal holds a prominent place. These seals, typically crafted from a glazed ceramic called faience, served various functions, including administrative and trade-related activities. The description of the seal portrays a captivating image of a flower with leaves on one side and a tree on the other. It is intriguing to observe the deep reverence for nature that characterized the Indus Valley Civilization, as evident through their frequent depiction of plants and animals in their artwork. The presence of a vibrant-colored eagle, flanked by snakes on either side, suggests a potential religious or symbolic significance. Nevertheless, it is crucial to acknowledge that without a specific image or reference to a particular seal, delving into more intricate details regarding the seal's exact symbolism or meaning proves to be challenging. The Indus Valley script remains undeciphered, and our understanding of their culture and beliefs largely relies on archaeological evidence. ------------- Kindly peruse the photographs to acquire additional details regarding the description, grades, condition, and other pertinent information.
