Vedic civilization was not urban
so, answer should option B
The answer can be urban centers (central planning of towns with citadel, granaries and all) or female deities(mother goddess) but can never be horses. This is so because there have been no mention of a horse on seals/steatite images. But there's just one doubtful piece of evidence of horse bone found in Surkotada, Gujarat which isn't fair enough.
no mention of horse in harappan society. check that answer ... from option - female deities maybe correct.
But I have got in several books that horse was unknown to indus people....
Female deities

as there is evidence of horses in sarkotoda but not that much that convince its presence, horses came with aryans,
But the goddess of fertility dipicted on teracota figurine resemble the female diety
I think it should be B option.please confirm.
But here again there is a qtn regarding which animal was not known to Indus people and the and given is horse. please check and correct me if I am wrong
Harappan don't know horses. Then how it is common to harappan society and rigvedic society.
Why horse is the common point. Harappan people don't know about of horse. Horses have a lot of importance in rig veda society. But you said correct answer. Give me explanation
Horse is not common
Female deities are common:-
1) Harappan :- Mother Goddess
2) Rigvedic society :- Aditi , Savitri , Usha ,etc.
Horse is the wrong option because horses were not native to India and they came with the Aryans , the horses were first spotted in Athens and were summoned by God Poseidon as a gift to the Athenians . Since the Aryans came to India ,they brought the horses with them.
I think it shoud be option B..Female deities.
Horse wrong
Female deities
It's female deities. I think
