Legacy
In the aftermath of the Indus Civilization's collapse, regional cultures emerged, to varying degrees showing the influence of the Indus Civilization. In the formerly great city of Harappa, burials have been found that correspond to a regional culture called the Cemetery H culture.

The Cemetery H culture has the earliest evidence for cremation; a practice dominant in Hinduism today.
