Solution
The correct option is D The Sumerians of Mesopotamia
The Sumerians named Melukhkha of a prominent trading partner
of Sumer during the Middle Bronze Age and there is a seal belonging to a
Mesopotamian whose job it was to act as an interpreter of the Meluhhan
language. On the other hand, there is nothing to suggest that people from
Mesopotamia reached the Indus, so it is clear that the Harappans conducted the
trade between the two civilizations. Mesopotamian ships sailed the length of
the Gulf, as far as the western coast of Magan Oman peninsula, trading directly
with Magan and with Dilmun Bahrain.
