  • The Harappan people depended on natural resources and villages in the vicinity in order to meet the needs of the urban way of life and urban administration. 
  • The raw material needed for industrial production included clay, various siliceous and semi¬precious stones, metals, etc. 
  • The interrelationship between Harappan cities and villages was dependent on the mechanism of making available things like food grains and raw materials. 
  • There was a network of small towns, small and big villages and campsites of semi-nomadic people which functioned to cater to the needs of major urban centers of the Harappan civilization. 
  • The best example of it is the Harappan Settlement of Shortugai.
