In Sub-pd I A, late Harappa, there is evidence of mud-walled houses and huts. A huge storage jar and other pottery in the late Harappa tradition, copper objects, terracotta beads, wheels and round cakes \[6.27\], faïence bangles and terracotta painted bull have been found. In Sub-pd I B which marks the arrival of the PGW people and during which there was a flood, three structural phases have been noticed. The earlier people lived in semicircular huts as attested by the position of post-holes. Three oval sturctures of burnt earth are probably of a religious character. In the next stage houses are of mud walls; one such room measuring 2·50 × 1·10 m of a house complex can be identified. The last phase is represented by a wall of baked brick of two sizes, 12 × 12 × 7 and 25 × 20 × 5 cm, brickbats and brick jelly. The other finds include terracotta beads and wheels, copper rings and faïence bangles. There is no iron.
