The correct option is A

a) Iron


Ans 85 A

Explanation: The sculptures made of Red Sandstone, Terracota and bronze were discovered. Sculptures made of iron were not found or not discovered yet. The most discussed example of metal sculpture in context with Indus Valley is the Dancing Girl. The terracotta figurines had a universal popularity in the ancient world and Harappan culture was no exception to this. There are plenty of terracotta seals and figurines recovered from Harappan sites which range from toys to cult objects such as mother goddess to birds and animals , including monkeys, dogs, sheep, cattle-both humped and humpless bulls
