Answer: (4) Kalibangan
उत्तर: (4) कालीबंगा
Excavations at Kalibangan (Hanumangarh district, Rajasthan) exposed a ploughed field of the early (pre-) Harappan phase with furrows criss-crossing at right angles, indicating two crops sown together in the same field, a pattern that resembles modern fields in the area. Dholavira, Rakhigarhi and Kunal are also Harappan sites, but the ploughed field is Kalibangan's hallmark find.
