Apart from Hastināpur and Ahicchatra, the *Mahābhārata* story also refers to Indraprastha (modern Delhi) and Dvārkā as important sites. For obvious reasons detailed excavations could not be undertaken in the city of Delhi. However the recent marine archaeological excavation of the submerged port of Dvārkā has yielded important evidences and a significant date. (Rao, 1988: 47-53)
