The Langhnaj people occupied elevated areas—sand-dunes—formed during the previous dry period and enclosed on three sides by small inundation lakes. They lived by hunting and fishing. Large quantities of cut animal bones were found in their habitations. These animals included cattle, nilgai, deer, rhinoceros, mongoose, pig, squirrels, rats, tortoises and fish. Animal flesh was cut with tiny tools, awls, scrapers of various types, blades and gravers or burins. Arrowheads of stone indicate that they used bows and arrows (Fig. 35).
