Deep Sounding, Mohenjo-daro [41]
REM I
Deep sounding at the southwestern edge of the so-called "Granary". The excavator is standing in water that has accumulated due to the high water-table.
Granary, SD and REM area
Built on top of a tapered brick platform, this building had a solid brick foundation that extended for 50 meters east west and 27 meters north south.
Eroded face of Granary
The eroding wells and a wall built up against the granary show that much of the area to the north of the granary was filled with debris and later buildings.
Overview of the upper levels of the excavations

Interiors of the rooms filled with surprises
