The lost-wax casting, sand casting, plaster mold casting, etc. are some of the methods of metal casting. Among these, the lost wax technique was practised on a wide scale by the Harappans for making bronze statues. Hence, statement 1 is not correct. • Both human and animal figures of bronze were sculpted. Examples among the human figures include the statue of a girl popularly titled 'Dancing Girl'. Among animal figures, the buffalo with its uplifted head, back and sweeping horns and the goat. A copper dog and bird at Lothal and a bronze figure of a bull at Kalibangan can also be found.
