A Walk Around Dholavira

Southern Chamber, East Gate Dholavira

Pillar members in their original place in the Castle, Harappan period (c. 2500-1900 BCE). The east gate is quite elaborate with a large and elevated built-in chamber and a sunken passageway in front that connects to the stairs rising on the interior part of the castle. Each wall had a central pillar supported by a base slab made up of square blocks.
