Trench 38

Beneath the Late Harappan wall in Trench 38 is a large globular pot covered with an inverted bottle shaped vessel that was used as a lid. This and the other small bowl protruding from the section were set in the floor of a room earlier than the wall.

Small pot

A small pot was found on the floor just to the west of the large globular vessel (the big hole in the wall is where it once sat). In the foreground are other large jars set into the floor and used as hearths or garbage pits.

Bead Pot

Initial probing to determine the contents of this small pot (79) from Trench 38, Late Harappan Period, revealed the presence of carnelian and faience beads.
