Who discovered Harappa?
The Harappa site was first briefly excavated by Sir Alexander Cunningham in 1872-73, two decades after brick robbers carried off the visible remains of the city. He found an Indus seal of unknown origin. The first extensive excavations at Harappa were started by Rai Bahadur Daya Ram Sahni in 1920.
Who discovered Harappa in 1921?
Earlier, in 1921, Rakhal Das Banerjee and Dayaram Sahani discovered the twin cities of Harappa and Mohenjo Daro. Soon after, excavations at the two sites brought alive certain facts: the people of Indus valley essentially had uniform city cultures with highly advanced and scientific civic planning.
