Much of the above is conjectural (and largely based on the find of the so-called Yamuna sand in the borings of the dry bed of the Ghaggar; there is strong literary evidence that during the Vedic times both the Sarasvatī and Yamuna flowed independently, \*Ṛgveda-saṁhitā\*, 10.76.7), but the corresponding archaeological facts are solid. Another example of the Yamuna changing its course also comes from the Bharatpur region where we have not only a concentration of PGW sites but the ox-bow lakes and a modern canal—the Gobardhan drain system (Gupta \*et al.\*, 1976).
