Everything about Northern Black Polished Ware totally explained
The
Northern Black Polished Ware culture (NBPW/NBP) of the
South Asia (ca.
700 BC–
200 BC) is an
Iron Age culture, succeeding the
Painted Grey Ware culture. It developed beginning around 700 BC, or in the late
Vedic period, and peaks from
circa 500 BC -
300 BC, coinciding with the rise of the
Mauryan Empire.
Malik and other scholars have noted similarities between NPB and Harappan cultures, among them the
ivory dice and combs and a similar system of weights. Other similarities include the utilization of
mud, baked
bricks and
stone in architecture, the construction of large units of public architecture, the systematic development of
hydraulic features and a similar
craft industry. There are however also important differences between these two cultures, for example in the NBP culture
rice,
millet and
sorghum become more important.
The NBP culture may reflect the first state-level organization in South Asia.
