NARSIPUR (Rao \*et al\*., 1974), have brought to light a crude red ware tradition, neoliths, flakes and microliths. While these sites do not necessarily disclose a uniform level of development, taken collectively they seem to antedate the cultures dominated by the burnished grey ware. The pottery from far-away LANGHNAJ appears to be similar to this ceramic tradition, while the Neolithic sites of Manbhum-Singhbhum \[4.6.5.\] and Mayurbhanj \[4.6.7.\] are a later extension of this red ware phase. - [Previous: v1.c9.s6.t4.17](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c9.s6.t4.17) - [Next: v1.c9.s6.t4.19](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c9.s6.t4.19) - [Up: v1.c9.s6.t4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c9.s6.t4) ## Cites (3) - [Nāgārjunakoṇḍa](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.nagarjunakonda) - [Langhnaj](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.langhnaj) - [T.
