Pit IV showing excavated structures from N.W.
Possibly of this structure after its excavation, Sahni reported that the “fourth or the northernmost pit revealed the remains of several structures, the best preserved one of which is a rectangular cell measuring 7' 7'' x 6' 8'' internally (Plate XXVI, c). The walls which are only 11" in thickness have coarse mud joints and in the interior of the cell was revealed a covered brick drain but no other objects of any kind."
Of Sahni’s excavations at Pit IV, Vats reported:
“Pit IV was excavated to a depth of 10 ft. to 11 ft. 6 in. On its eastern side was found a small room of Stratum IV which measures 7 ft. 7 in. by 6 ft. 8 in. internally, and is bisected by a covered drain coming from the north side. Behind this room, a little higher than the drain, was a fragmentary brick-on-edge pavement of Stratum III, with a contemporary wall to its left (PI. XXXIV, a). In the west part of this pit there are four or five broken walls of the Illrd stratum.” (p. 169)
