Domestic kitchens of Sātavāhana times reveal interesting features. At BHOKARDAN have been found twin hearths resting on lime floors measuring 40 × 10 × 6 cm and three community hearths in the shape of a channel on rammed tile floors. At BRAHMAPURI large kitchens and two ovens with fixed storage jars and charred \*ragi\* lying near them have been excavated. - [Previous: v1.c11.s17.3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c11.s17.3) - [Next: v1.c11.s17.5](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c11.s17.5) - [Up: v1.c11.s17](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c11.s17) ## Linked texts (7) - [Ahicchatra](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.ahichchhatra) - [Vaiśālī](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.vaisali) - [Noh](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.noh) - [Purana Qila](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.purana-qila) - [Bhokardan](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.bhokardan) - [Sambhar](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.sambhar) - [Brahmapuri](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.brahmapuri) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c11.s17.4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c11.s17.4) · Pramāṇa
