The prehistoric remains in the Sarasvatī basin were for the first time brought to light in the early 40s' by the investigations of the Hakra valley by Stein though he covered the Rajasthan part of the stream as well without noticing any such remains (Stein, 1942). Stein's work was further extended by Ghosh (see below) when he undertook a survey of the dried-up courses of the Sarasvatī and its tributary the DṚṢADVATĪ in Dt Ganganagar between 1950 and 1953. Within Haryana the PGW [11.14] was picked up from the valley at PEHOVA and KURUKSHETRA (RAJA-KARNA-KA-QILA) by Lal at about the same time (Lal, 1954 and 1955).
