Answer 1

The features of ancient Indus cities include:

• a sanitation system
• a large, central building that stored grain

The ancient Indus Valley Civilization is known for its advanced urban planning, which included sophisticated plumbing and drainage systems, as well as granaries for storing surplus grain. However, there is limited evidence to suggest that they had huge structures that specifically served as temples, unlike some other ancient civilizations.
