Among the NBPW types at Ropar are the dish with sagger base, bowl, goblet with slightly everted rim, close-fitting flanged lid with a flat terminal, spouted jar and rimless carinated cooking pot (*hāṇḍī*). Most of these types occur also in plain red ware which were manufactured locally. Among other red ware types are: the bluntly carinated dish with sagger base, some with lugged rim; bowl with vertical, incurved or beaked rim; bowl-*cum*-lid with folded rim; basin with collared rim; large flat lid with finger-tip depressions and strap-handle; pear-shaped jar; beaker with everted rim; and *kulhar*-like pot, often with scored body. Another class of pottery represented mainly by the dish and bowl is a thick grey ware, often with dark-grey slip, which looks like a devolution of the PGW.
