Pakistan: The 'Dancing Girl of Mohenjo-daro', Indus Valley Civilisation, Sindh, c. 2300-1750 BCE. Mohenjo-daro (lit. Mound of the Dead), situated in the province of Sindh, Pakistan, was one of the largest settlements of the ancient Indus Valley civilisation. Built roughly 2600 BCE, it was one of the world's earliest major urban settlements, existing at the same time as the civilisations of ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia and Crete. A bronze statuette dubbed the "Dancing Girl", cm high and some 4,500 years old, was found in Mohenjo-daro in 1926.
