*Pd V, early historical*. This Pd marks a transition between the NBPW and the Red Polished Ware [11.23] and is based on the evidence from the Mandalkho mound at Maheshwar. It is characterized by a decrease in the black-and-red ware, though the burnished red and the coarse red wares continue. As this Pd marks a transitional phase it has been dated between 100 B.C. and A.D. 100.
