A circular floor, about 4 m in diameter, with a series of open hearths, a few post-holes near the floor and a few burnt chunks of clay with reed or bamboo impression have also been encountered in the late Neolithic level. The local Neolithic people thus settled on the alluvial deposit of the Ganga, living in circular houses made of wild reeds. The dwellings had generally mud boundary walls.
