The jar or vase painted with wide black band with diversification in necks and rims are characteristic of the pre-Harappa pottery from pre-defence Harappa, Amri, Kot-Diji, Sarai Khola II (all in Pakistan), SISWAL B and KALIBANGAN I. The jar with grooved body or shoulder is reported from pre-defence Harappa, Sarai Khola II and Jalilpur (all in Pakistan). Only traces of I A fabrics and types are noticed in RPR-2, the trench on the s. slopes of the mound barely 70 m away from RPR-1. Apparently I A represents the overlap of the pre-Harappa and Harappa, for apart from some Harappa shapes in pottery, among the antiquities from layers 35 B and 35 A are a bronze jar and broken celt, typical terracotta bangles and beads of steatite, paste and carnelian, all these being characteristic of mature Harappa culture. - [Previous: v2.c44.467](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c44.467) - [Next: v2.c44.469](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c44.469) - [Up: v2.c44](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c44) ## Cites (5) - [Harappā](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.harappa) - [Kot Diji](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.kot-diji) - [Amri](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.amri) - [Siswal](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.siswal) - [Sarai Khola](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.sarai-khola) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c44.468](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c44.468) · Pramāṇa
