A fairly large number of radiocarbon dates is now available for Harappan sites (Agrawal and Kusumgar 1974), and there are also 14C dated sites like Balakot, Damb Sadaat, and Kot Diji with both pre-Harappan and Harappan deposits. Harappa itself has few 14C dates nor do we have any dates for the lower levels of Mohenjodaro. Radiocarbon dates in the main Indus region show a spread of about 4250-3950 B.P., which agrees well with the archaeological evidence from Mesopotamia.
