The houses in Pd III are built with *kankar* stone, kiln-burnt brick and mud-brick. The burnt-brick retaining wall of an oval-shaped reservoir [14.14] of Pd III B was fed with rain water through an inlet. The wall is 3·65 m in width and is very impressive. It has been traced to a length of 75 m, beyond which it could not be followed as it lay below the present town. Ring-lined soakage wells occur in clusters and singly. The remains of a smith’s workshop contained a furnace and a heap of agate beads, some of them not finished.
