Fishing nets have been identified from paintings on a pot-shred found at Harappa. It shows a fisherman carrying two nets hanging from a pole across his shoulder. Some fish and turtles are lying close to his nets. The fisherman stands on a cross- hatched band possibly a river as identified by Vats (1940).
