The best answers for the question: Which of the following characteristics have scholars also ascribed to the ancient Indus River Valley Civilization, would be: 1. Long-distance trade with Mesopotamia and 2. Urban planning.

Explanation:

The history of civilization in the Indus Valley seems to be much more ancient than scientist first believed. Discoveries have been made that showed evidence of a civilization, known as the Harappa civilization, and which are believed to have lived all along the Indus Valley between 3300 and 1300 BCE. The recent findings on this region have staggered scientist as they have become proof that human civilization, and organization, happened in different regions of the world, much earlier than was estimated. This civilization, in particular, has blown researchers´ minds away due to two factors: one, the level of urbanization in their cities, with granaries, waterways, waste management systems, among other things, and also that these people were able to trade with other civilization, as far as Mesopotamia, when this used to be believed not possible. This is why the two answers selected are the correct ones.
