The discovery of Harappa ware \[11.3\], beads of semiprecious stones, faïence bangles and terracotta toy-cart frames and wheels \[15.19\], beads, triangular cakes \[6.27\] and circular discs from BALU clearly indicates the extension of the mature Harappa culture \[4.9\] in the region. BALU is a sizeable mound, 265 m long and 290 m wide, rising to a height of 3·6 m. Besides Balu, perhaps a town site, a number of smaller sites yielding the Harappa Ware seemingly represent village settlements of the culture.
