The dating of Langhnaj is not very clear as the layers are not well-differentiated, and as the artefactual remains do not show any typological evolution. But a comparison with other sites in the area gives a relative dating, i.e., the industry is akin to microliths found in the pre-Chalcolithic levels. Preliminary investigations on charred bones suggest a date of 2000 B.C. for the site.
