the birth of civilization

where is great bath located

Answer explanation

MOHENJADARO

Architectural references include a very symmetrical plan of the internal bath due to the two wide staircases from north and south. There are smaller sockets upon the edges of the stairs, which are believed to hold wooden planks. At the end of the stairs it is widely recognized that the small ledge has brick edging as a coping that extends to the whole pool. This causes the beautiful concept to exist that the people in that time could actually come down the stairways by this ledge without stepping into the pool itself. Some very finely laid burnt brickwork layered with gypsum is a spectacle due to these intricate joinery details. Brick columns surrounded the Great Bath and serve as platforms. The water for the bath was provided by a well in an adjacent room and adjacent to the bath there was porticos, sets of rooms and a staircase leading to the upper storey.
