10 Some clay-slabs or cakes were found at Bhambor and Brahmanabad in Sind. These “are about half to three- quarters of an inch thick, upon one side of which are impressed rows of little cup-like hollows, forming a regular honey-comb pattern, while the lower sides have been subjected to great heat and are vitrified”. A few of these were found during excavations at Bahmanabad along with some pellets, which fitted the hollows, and some copper coins, produced apparently by striking such pellets with dies.
