• B. The script is found on seals, in moulded terracotta and pottery.

• D. Indus texts are very short.

Answer 1

The correct option is C It only has bilingual text.

Harappans knew the art of writing. Their script is found on seals, in moulded terracotta and on pottery, not yet deciphered. The Indus texts are very short - the average length of the inscriptions is less than five signs. It has no bilingual text and was generally written from right to left.
