At Rupar, it overlies the Harappan pottery and bronze implements. The Painted Grey Ware has also been recorded from the Purana Qila of New Delhi, from Hastinapur in Meerut and from a number of sites in the Punjab. Its other important sites are Panipat and Sonepat in Haryana, Baghpat, Alamgirpur, Atranjikhera, Mathura, Shravasti and Kausambi in Uttar Pradesh, and Noh in the Bharatpur District in Rajasthan. The northernmost site is at Manda in Jammu.
