v1.c22.4

ALL over India, ground and polished stone implements of the Neolithic Age have been found, their characteristic material being trap in place of the quartzite used in the Palaeolithic Age. The earliest archaeolithic finds in India were in the Valley of the Tons River in the United Provinces by Le Mesurier in 1860, and they were polished celts of this Age. In 1872, William Fraser located Bellary as the real focus of the Neolithic culture in south India.
