2. Harappans practised phallu worship.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
1 only
2 only
Both 1 and 2
Neither 1 nor 2
The Harappan civilization, also known as the Indus Valley Civilization, existed around 3300 BCE to 1300 BCE and is known for its advanced urban planning, sophisticated drainage systems, and other cultural achievements.
False. While there is evidence that the Harappans venerated a mother goddess figure, which some historians speculate could be a precursor to later goddess worship, there is no direct evidence to suggest they worshipped goddesses like Durga, Amba, or Kali. These deities are more commonly associated with later periods of Indian history, especially with Hinduism.
True. There is evidence in the form of seals and terracotta figurines to suggest that phallus (linga) worship was practiced by the Harappans, which might be seen as a precursor to the Shiva worship in later periods of Indian history.
Thus, the correct answer is "2 only".
