Found in Mound AB, Pit I, Sahni: “The only structures reclaimed in pit I were two cells occurring at the depths of 3' and 10' respectively, which might have been kitchens or baths, and a well preserved drain composed of brick with a gabled roof which was exposed for a length of 43' (Plate XXVI, b). It is choked up with mud mixed with charcoal and ashes, apparently the washings of a kitchen. The minor antiquities comprised four well preserved seals (P.1. 39-42) of an unusually large size and with deep cut pictographs (Plate XXVIII, figs. 21-24).” (p. 79-80)
