Either the cultural remains indicate a stage of ‘incipient cultivation’, or the presence in the later period of pottery as well as copper and iron tools suggests cultural contacts with the other settled contemporary Chalcolithic \[4.14\] and Iron Age \[4.16\] communities. - [Previous: v2.c38.136](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c38.136) - [Next: v2.c38.138](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c38.138) - [Up: v2.c38](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c38) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c38.137](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c38.137) · Pramāṇa
