Explanation

The Indus Valley Civilization (3300-1300 BCE) flourished during the Chalcolithic age, which is characterized by the use of stone tools along with copper. This period bridges the Neolithic (stone tools only) and Bronze Age (bronze implements). Paleolithic and Mesolithic are earlier Stone Age periods, while the Indus Valley had not yet entered the full Bronze Age stage.
