v1.c11.s2.16

That spinning was common in the houses of Mohenjo-Daro is evident from the numerous spindle-whorls in the houses; that it was practised by the well-to-do and poor alike is indicated by the fact that the whorls are made of the more expensive faience as well as of the cheaper pottery and shell. (MS-I, 32)
