Answer 1

The correct option is D All of above

We get information about diet of the people from the remains of food grains, seeds and bones of animals found in excavations. Moreover, by studying the stone tools left by the early humans, one can study the butchering activities and the level of technology. Also we find the remains of houses and buildings built in different historical periods.

We also find ancient coins and seals which are an important source of insight on the economy of the period and different dynasties and kings.All these give us information about human activities in the past.
