Which of the following site of Harappan Civilisation is not an India site? |
Rakhigarhi Banawali Cholistan Lothal |
Cholistan |
Cholistan is the desert area of Pakistan bordering the Thar Desert. The boundaries of the Harappan civilization do not align with present-day national boundaries. However, after the partition of the subcontinent and the creation of Pakistan, the major Harappan sites now fall within Pakistani territory. Consequently, Indian archaeologists have been motivated to locate Harappan sites within India. Through extensive surveys in Kutch, several Harappan settlements have been discovered, and explorations in Punjab and Haryana have contributed to the list of Harappan sites. Notable excavations, such as Kalibangan, Lothal, Rakhi Garhi, and most recently Dholavira, have been conducted as part of these endeavors, with ongoing explorations continuing. |
