Design Inspiration:

Excavations of the Indus cities have given us a lot of evidences of a highly developed civilization existed in this area four to five thousand years ago and the artistic activities by Indus people. These discoveries are very important, as they tell us about their lifestyle, script, trade and religious beliefs. The Indus Valley civilization is one of the initial urban civilizations in the world, along with its contemporaries, Mesopotamia and Ancient Egypt. The people of this ancient Indus river valley developed new techniques in handicraft. The forms of art found from various sites of the civilization include bronze sculptures (like dancing girl), stone figurines (like a bust portrait of a bearded nobleman or high priest in sandstone), seals (seals made of terracotta and soapstone with the motifs of animals, human figure and god), terracotta figures made of a fire baked clay (handcrafted using pinching method), jewelry (includes bangles, bead necklaces, chokers and many more) etc.  

Benefits:

EDUCATE - The CultreBox engages users to become archaeologists for a few hours. Each artefact in the CultreBOX is replicated with the help of craftsmen and through using traditional art forms. Players learn about various aspects of art, art techniques, and heritage as they dig into the past.

PLAY - The fun doesn’t stop after playing with the CultreBOX just once. The mound material can be reused to create a mound for new objects, and continue to pique the curiosity of children young and old!

DISCOVER - Not only does the CultreBOX cater to knowledge, but it also helps develop cognitive skills. The artefacts can be restored, used to complete unsolved patterns and puzzles, used to make objects for daily use, or just put on display.
