Minerals and Metals in Ancient India v1.c16.s2.1

v1.c16.s2.1

The succeeding farming culture that flourished in Malwa in Central India has been named as the Malwa Culture. The region was justly famous in the ancient past as it is now for its fertile soil. Its chequered history bears eloquent testimony to its prosperity because time and again battles were fought for the supremacy over Malwa. It is therefore in the fitness of things that it should have attracted the early farmers of Central India whose settlements have been subjected to scientific excavation at Navdatoli, Maheswar, Eran, Mandasore, Nāgdā, etc. Not only this, even in the main Jorwe sites also such as Prakash, Nevasa, Bahal, Nasik, Chandoli and Inamgaon, traces of this culture have been unearthed.
