v2.c45.937

No remains of any regular occupation after the 7th century could be traced in the cuttings. What overlies the deposits of Pd II is a superficial medieval deposit in the top layers. The pottery of the Pd is distinguished by the red-ware knife-edge bowl, basin and *hāṇḍī*. The interesting finds include two terracotta sealings, one bearing the name Vyāghrarāja in characters of the 5th-6th century, while the other reads Sugha (the name of the city) in Nāgarī characters of the 12th-13th century. It seems the main habitation shifted to other parts of the mound after *c.* 300.
