v2.c37.165

About 300 m to the w.-s.-w. of the citadel was found the cemetery of the Harappa period. Three types of burials have been attested: extended inhumation in rectangular or oval graves; pot burial in a circular pit; and rectangular or oval grave-pit, containing only pottery and other funerary objects. The latter two methods were unassociated with any skeletal remains.
