Beas Landscape and Settlement Survey:

Harappan Sites at Dunyapur/Lodhran – Punjab, Pakistan

Abstract

This article reports the results of field work conducted between 1996 and 2001 in the Punjab
province of Pakistan. Our methodology was based on scraping surfaces to identify remnant features in a region recently levelled for establishment of homesteads, crop farming, and animal husbandry. The article includes unpublished maps, surface records, diagnostic finds, and radiocarbon dates based on core samples. The research captures a short period when Harappans moved to parts of this region and engaged in unique forms of water management techniques. Follow up analyses and satellite imagery provide evidence for site modification and heritage loss.
