Sub-pd II A marked the introduction of iron and the black-and-red ware. The latter is quite different in fabric and shape from that of Pd I. The ware is thinner and unpainted. A sherd of the NBPW \[11.16\] was also recovered. Other antiquities included terracotta human and animal figurines, some of which were in the 'archaic' style. A number of tribal and punch-marked coins \[3.1\] were also found. A circular lead piece with the seal-mark of the ruler Indragupta in Brāhmī of the 3rd century B.C. was a notable find. The other finds were beads of stone, shell and terracotta, copper and iron objects, bone points, shell bangles, etc.
