Ropar has the distinction of being the site where the remains of the Harappa civilization were excavated for the first time in post-Partition India. It is also the first site where the superimposition of the PGW over the Harappa was first demonstrated. (In the middle SARASVATĪ valley there is no such superimposition, the mounds of the two cultures being always distinct from each other.)
