Harappa Platform with large jar in square 2 x 12 in southern portion of Trench A (e). The jar is broken at the top.
"2 x 17" is painted on the surface, and this number possibly denotes area of find.
Notably, Sahni mentioned a large jar in the third stratum of A (e), “23’ to the south” of a structure of “special interest”, “a solidly built corner of a dwelling house”.
“On the next lower stratum special interest attaches to a solidly built corner of a dwelling house or other structure which is provided with an entrance doorway 2'5" in width. The rest of this building has been entirely dug away by brick hunters ... Close to this structure were noticed two large earthen jars placed one over the other and filled as usual with fragments of earthenware vessels, terracotta objects and earth, while a still larger jar 'stood about 23' to the south with similar contents”.
