The Harappan culture was a fully urbanised culture and is generally excluded from the Chalcolithic group. The latter group includes exclusively non-urban cultures whose economy was akin to the non-metal-using Neolithic cultures of the South. The third group is called the Copper Hoards culture, so named because most of the finds were found in hoards. - [Previous: v1.c11.1](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.bag-1997.v1.c11.1) - [Next: v1.c11.s1.1](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.bag-1997.v1.c11.s1.1) - [Up: v1.c11](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.bag-1997.v1.c11) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.bag-1997.v1.c11.2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.bag-1997.v1.c11.2) · Pramāṇa
