Page "Bhiwani district" Paragraph 4

Excavations ( 1968 – 73 and 1980 – 86 ) in the village of Mitathal in Bhiwani have unearthed evidence of pre-Harappan and Harappan ( Indus Valley Civilization ) culture in the area.

Near the village of Naurangabad, about 10 km from Bhiwani, preliminary diggings in 2001 have revealed artifacts like coins, tools, sieves, toys, statues and pots up to 2500 years old.

According to the archaeologists the presence of coins, coin moulds, statues and design of the houses, suggests that a town existed here sometimes in the Kushan, Gupta and the Youdheya period till 300 BC.
