Excavated examples of the habitation sites have been very few so far but mention should be made of KUNNATTUR and PAIYAMPALLI (\*IAR 1964-5\* and \*1967-8\*). - [Previous: v1.c9.s17.107](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c9.s17.107) - [Next: v1.c9.s17.109](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c9.s17.109) - [Up: v1.c9.s17](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c9.s17) ## Linked texts (2) - [Kunnattur](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.kunnattur) - [Paiyampalli](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.paiyampalli) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c9.s17.108](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c9.s17.108) · Pramāṇa
