One can notice pure Harappa sites and also sites mixed up with the OCW in the Yamuna valley of Dt Saharanpur. As no Harappa settlement is noticed beyond the Hindon, a tributary of the Yamuna, the OCW settlements in the Ganga valley are free of any admixture, although AMBKHERI, an OCW site, definitely shows a contact with the late Harappa in the form of terracotta objects like beads, oval cakes, hubbed cartwheels, animal figurines and a solitary carnelian bead. In the e. doab, from where OCW is reported from BAHARIA, SAIPAI and ATRANJIKHERA, no such Harappa contact is discernible. - [Previous: v1.c9.s10.7](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c9.s10.7) - [Next: v1.c9.s10.9](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c9.s10.9) - [Up: v1.c9.s10](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c9.s10) ## Linked texts (4) - [Atranjikhera](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.atranjikhera) - [Ambkheri](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.ambkheri) - [Baharia](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.baharia) - [Saipai](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.saipai) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c9.s10.8](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c9.s10.8) · Pramāṇa
