And it should be noted that the quality of the Indian sherds that I have just described is equal in finish to any glazed ware of ancient Mesopotamia. The four pieces found at Mohenjo-daro are beyond all doubt the handiwork of a potter who was well acquainted with the process and able to carry it to a high degree of perfection". - [Previous: c12.39](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.ray-1956.c12.39) - [Next: c12.41](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.ray-1956.c12.41) - [Up: c12](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.ray-1956.c12) ## Linked texts (1) - [Mohenjo-daro](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.mohenjo-daro) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.ray-1956.c12.40](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.ray-1956.c12.40) · Pramāṇa
