As already stated earlier, at Kalibangan the Lower Town was also fortified. Built right at the beginning of the settlement, the fortifications enclosed an area measuring 240 m from w. to e. and over 360 m from n. to s. Two gateways were identified, one on the w., providing an access to the ‘Citadel’, and the other on the n.-w. opening on the river-front.
