Directions for Travel Brochure
Directions: Imagine you work for a travel agency that offers time-travel packages to great ancient civilizations. Work with your team members to create a travel brochure advertising a visit to the ancient civilization that developed in the Indus Valley. The brochure should provide travelers with information on the location, government, religion, agriculture, cultural and scientific contributions that they would see in ancient India.

traveler get to this place? What is the climate like?

and who enforced them?

items used solely for survival or were they traded for other goods?
