Babar Kot is an archeological site belonging to the Indus Valley civilisation and is located in the Saurashtra region of Gujarat , India . It is 325 km away from Ahmedabad and 152 km away from Bhavnagar and 15 km away from rajula and is located in Jafarabad taluka .
Excavation
[ edit ]
Gregory Possehl , of University of Pennsylvania has undertaken a detailed study at this site as well as at Rojdi and Oriyo timbo .
Historical significance
[ edit ]
This site is classified as belonging to the Late Harappan period and measures about 2.7 hectares; Babar Kot had a stone fortification wall.[1]
Plant findings
[ edit ]
Findings from this site include plant remains of millets, gram[1] and bajra (pennisetum typhoideum ) among other findings.[2] Furthermore, it is indicated that Bajra might have been present at this site during the third millennium BCE.[3] An archaeological study using ethnographic models provided evidence of two crops at Babar kot, one in summer and another during winter.[4] [5]
Animal findings
[ edit ]
Findings from this site also included animal remains of cattle, goat, sheep, and pigs.[5] An archaeological study revealed evidence of eleucine coracana , which probably was used as green fodder for the animals.[5]
