Sahni in 1938 and by K.N. Puri during 1938 to 1940. Of the three Pds identified in the excavation the lowest had only a few fragmentary jars and potsherds, the middle one a double-roomed dwelling and the section of a drain and the uppermost three small houses, a series of parallel walls and fragments of drains, including one of clay pipes, the size of the bricks being about 48×2·3× 8 cm and pavements; evidently most of the houses were built of mud, of which no trace exists. Of the 18 ring-wells of the nature of soak-pits, two were filled with layers of inverted \*loṭā\*-shaped jars. - [Previous: v2.c44.35](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c44.35) - [Next: v2.c44.37](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c44.37) - [Up: v2.c44](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c44) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c44.36](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c44.36) · Pramāṇa
