Burzahom's Neolithic Site, in Srinagar district of India, illuminate the changes from neolithic to megalithic times to early history, in the patterns of human habitations. Burzahom's site is the rare and complete storyteller of the life between 3000 BCE and 1000 BCE from the transition of architecture to the creation of toolmaking techniques to the introduction and diffusion of lentil in northwest India.
EXPLANATION:
- People in Burzahom lived in pit-dwelling during the Neolithic age. Pit dwellings were made under the ground and had steps that led to the dwelling. The underground pit-dwelling of Neolithic men were cut into the natural soil generally dug out with long stone celts.
- The 'pits' were 'circular or oval in plan', 'narrow at the top' and 'wide at the base' having (wooden) 'post holes on the ground level' suggesting a 'birch cover as a protection against the harsh weather'. Some pits were shallower, and were perhaps either storage pits or those utilised as dwellings in the time of warmer period.
- Stone hearths were also found at ground levels, near the pits’ mouth demonstrating that habitation activities were at the ground level, as well. Ascribed to the same era are underground dwellings of quadrangular section, roofed by a birch layer with a centrally placed clay or stone hearth and storage pit.
