v1.c12.s6.1

As in Mohenjo-Daro, a good number of copper objects have been found at Harappa. Amongst them the most noteworthy is a two-wheeled copper chariot, the kind of which has not been found elsewhere. Apart from this there were copper antimony rod stopper, copper mace-head and other copper beads, ornaments etc. But the most important discovery of metallic antiquities that has so far been made at this site is a large hoard of copper and bronze implement and other objects of daily use. Sana Ullah after analysing 16 samples has given the tabulated results (*vide* Table 4.1).
