Summary

DescriptionGreat bath view Mohenjodaro.JPG
English: The Great Bath. A 2.4m deep, "12m long." And 7m wide pool known as "The Great Bath" is located at the——centre of the "Citadel," is made of fine baked waterproof mud bricks. And a thick layer of bitumen (natural tar – presumably——to keep water from seeping through the walls), which indicates that it was used for holding water. Many scholars have suggested that this huge deep bath could have been a place for ritual bathing. Or religious ceremonies. It is the earliest public water tank of the ancient world. Adjacent——to it are a well that was used to supply water to the bath.
