2 Art and Culture 1.1 Introduction Difference between Architecture and Sculpture Classification of Indian Architecture Indus Valley Civilization and their archaeological findings BY CIVIL JOINT
3 The Word Architecture is derived from the Latin word tekton which means builder. Sculpture word is derived from Proto-Indo-European root Kel which means to cut or cleave. Sculpture are smaller work of art, either handmade or with tools and are more related to aesthetics than engineering and measurement. Difference between Architecture and Sculpture Point of difference Architecture Sculpture Size and Scope Architecture refers to the design and construction of buildings Sculpture are relatively smaller 3-dimensional works of art. Material used Architecture generally uses a mixture of various type of materials like stone, wood, glass, metal, sand, etc. A single piece of sculpture is usually made of a single type of material. Principle It involves study of engineering and engineering mathematics. It requires detailed and accurate measurement. It involves creativity and imagination and may not depends as heavily on accurate measurement.

5 Harappan Art and Architecture A Flourishing civilisation emerged on the bank of the river Indus in the second half of the third millennium BCE (Before Common Era). Numerous sculptures, seals, potteries jewelleries found at the excavation sites. Harrapa (on river Ravi) and Mohenjo-daro (on river Indus) two major sites of the civilisation- are among the earliest and finest example of urban civic planning. The planned network of roads, houses and drainage systems indicate the planning and engineering skills that developed during those times.
6 Important sites of the Indus valley civilisation and their archaeological findings are: Harappa(Pakistan): 2 row of six granaries with big platform, stone symbol of lingam and yoni, mother goddess figure, wheat and barley in wooden mortar, dice, copper scale and mirror, copper bullock cart, sculpture of dog chasing a deer in bronze metal, nude dancing girl of stone and a red sand stone male torso(the trunk of the human body), only site which yields the evidence of coffin burial. Mohenjo-daro(Pakistan): The great bath(use of Burnt bricks, Mortar and Gypsum in the Great bath but no use of stone), the great granary, Dancing girl(world s oldest bronze sculpture), post cremation burial, sculpture of bearded priest, seal of supposed Pashupati.
