Tools of Series I (Lower Palaeolithic \[4.2\]): Abbevillio-Acheulian handaxes, cleavers, discoids, scrapers, etc., made on trap and quartzite together with pebble tools. Tools of Series II (Middle Palaeolithic \[4.3\]): tools made on jasper, chert, chalcedony, etc., scrapers predominating and blades being comparatively few. Series III (Mesolithic \[4.5\]): blades, points, scrapers, awls, etc. Microliths and sometimes neoliths were found in association with black-and-red painted pottery and coarse grey ware similar to that from the Chalcolithic \[4.14.8\] levels at BRAHMAGIRI and BAHAL. The site also contained remains of burials and pots of the Black-and-red Ware \[11.15.3\] bearing graffiti. The Chalcolithic culture was superimposed successively by cultures of the Black-and-red Ware and a coarse red-slipped ware, the latter being assignable to the Sātavāhana period. Red Polished Ware \[11.23\] was also present. \*IAR 1957-8\*. - [Previous: v2.c46.231](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c46.231) - [Next: v2.c46.233](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c46.233) - [Up: v2.c46](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c46) ## Cites (2) - [Bahal](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.bahal) - [Thalner](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.thalner) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c46.232](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c46.232) · Pramāṇa
