Indus Valley terracotta idols are ancient artifacts from the Bronze Age civilization that thrived in the Indus Valley (circa 3300–1300 BCE). Crafted from clay, these small figurines depict various human and animal forms. Notable examples include the "Dancing Girl" and "Mother Goddess" figurines. The careful detailing of facial features, clothing, and ornaments reflects the artistic sophistication of the Indus people. These terracotta idols are believed to have played a role in religious or ritual practices, showcasing the cultural and spiritual dimensions of the Indus Valley Civilization.
