Lohoma Lal Tibba (19 km. from Harappa), Chak Purbane Syal (23 km.) and Harappa form a small cluster of settlements at the upstream end of our survey area. Lohoma Lal Tibba is a highmounded site with a current elevation of a maximum elevation of 4.5. m, though local villagers informed us that the site was 2 m higher a decade ago. Currently, it is bisected by a dirt road that leads to the village and fields. It is unclear whether the original settlement was two mounds or one. We compared the stratigraphy, artifact distributions, and radiocarbon determinations from an eroding profile on the north mound and a test trench on the south mound, to be discussed in more detail below (Test Trenches and Radiocarbon dates). The remnants of mudbrick constructions directly overlaying natural sediment horizons and artifact assemblages at both mounds suggest that the site was a single mound. Still, divisions of the type found at Lohoma Lal Tibba are typical of Harappan site plans.
