Harappa is a city in Punjab, northeast Pakistan, located beside a former course of the Ravi River; about 35km southwest of Sahiwal.
The modern town is built beside the remains of an ancient fortifed city, which was part of the
Cemetery H and Indus Valley Civilisations. The city existed from about 3300 BC [1] until 1600 BC.
Notes
[1] The earliest radiocarbon dating mentioned on the web is 2725+-185 BC (uncalibrated) or 3338, 3213, 3203 BC calibrated, giving a midpoint of 3251 BC.
Maybe this comes from S.P.Gupta, 1993, "Longer chronology of the Indus-Saraswati
Civilization", Puratattva, No. 23, 1992-93, pp. 21-29.
[2] Mohenjo-daro is another major city of the same period, located in Sindh province of Pakistan.
