the earliest bricks were "dried brick", meaning that they were formed from clay-bearing earth or mud and dried (usually in the sun) until they were strong enough for use. the oldest discovered bricks, originally made from shaped mud and dating before 7500 bc, were found at tell aswad, in the upper tigris region and in southeast anatolia close to diyarbakir. the south asian inhabitants of mehrgarh also constructed, and lived in, air-dried mudbrick houses between 7000–3300 bc. other more recent findings, dated between 7,000 and 6,395 bc, come from jericho, catal hüyük, the ancient egyptian fortress of buhen, and the ancient indus valley cities of mohenjo-daro, harappa, and mehrgarh. ceramic, or "fired brick" was used as early as 3000 bc in early indus valley cities like kalibangan.
