Thus there still ranges a controversy about the technology of the Black-and-red-ware. Scholars have tried to attribute the authorship of the pottery to Dravidians (Soundara Rajan, p. 74) or Aryans (Sinha, p. 11) but what seems to be the case is that this peculiar technique either originated or was introduced in Gujarat first and then diffused, in course of time to different areas. It seems to have been perfected by the megalith-builders of South India.
