The explored area has been seen to be rich in archaeological sites which may be classified as Harappa \[4.9.\], PGW \[4.15\] and early historical \[4.18.2\], with the addition of the now well-known pre-Harappa \[4.8\]. At the time of the discovery of the last-named culture at SOTHI and NOHAR in the DṚṢADVATĪ valley, both single-culture sites and hence without any cultural sequence, it was thought to be post-Harappa, but excavation at KALIBANGAN has shown it to be pre-Harappa and largely co-existing with the Harappa. Its widespread farther e. has now been established.
