Religion has always played a prominent part in ancient cultures, and this is all the more so in the case of India. On the basis of a through investigation of the objects in his book, Mohenjodaro and India civilization, John Marshall has come to the conclusion that the religion of that period was a composite one and that many cults existed side by side and continued to flourish without hindrance to one another. Of these religious cults, the mother cult and the Siva cult must have been most widely prevalent – a fact which is attested by the abundance of relevant materials unearthed in the India valley. |
