Excavation of the fill inside the jar (image 33) indicates it was left exposed for some time and gradually filled with silt as the room became covered with debris (Trench 41NE).
Also in a room encroaching onto the street were the upturned rim of a jar (on left) and two bases (center and right) that were used as hearths (Trench 41NE). The pottery base hearths could have been lifted and moved to different parts of the room
Excavations in 1999 along the western of edge of Mound F (Trench 43) revealed fallen rubble from walls that had collapsed late in the Harappan occupation of this area of the site.
Overview of the upper levels of the Trench 43 excavations in 1999 shows the eroded city wall in the background and the fallen baked brick walls of late Period 3C structures in the foreground.
Part of an antler, including the burr and the brow tine, shed from a large deer, probably sambhar (Cervus unicolor) or swamp deer (Cervus duvauceli) (H99-3828/8763-01 from Trench 43). This specimen may have been used as a pick or possibly a punch for
Period 4 (Late Harappan transitional) kiln with hollow lower fire box and arched floor with holes for allowing heat to enter the upper firing chamber. This type of kiln was introduced at Harappa ca.
Looking into the hollow fire box of the Period 4 kiln with arched floor (see image 62). The column of soil in the center was left for support of the floor (Trench 43).
Limited excavations in the granary area at Harappa starting in 1997 (Trench 41 area) and 1999 have begun a new examination of this important building, first excavated in the 1920s.
