Rao (1973a) discovered a fragmentary copper piece with a convex end and two broken side lugs (Fig. 13) in the Harappan levels of Lothal, and compared it with the anthropomorphs from the doab. If it had had longer arms like those of the Copper Hoard examples, however, it would not be mechanically feasible for it to break so near the body (Agrawal 1971:192). It should also be noted that in the whole range of the Harappan artifacts, this piece alone has alleged resemblances to the anthropomorphs.
