Several other facts may be mentioned to establish that the Ganeshwar-Jodhpura region was indeed one of the earliest Pre-Harappan centres for copper technology. In this hilly region are located the ancient rivers or river-tracks (flowing northward) of Kantli, Dohan, Kasaunti, Sota, Sobi etc. (arranged in order — western to eastern location). Ganeshwar is at the source of Kantli whose ancient track used to flow past Jhunjhunu meeting Drishadvati near Bhadra and Kalibangan as testified by the landsat imagery. Thus there was no difficulty for the copper goods to be despatched to the Sarasvati-Drishadvati complex and also along Hakra towards the Indus sites.
