.While the Rig Veda was being composed in the Northwest of the subcontinent, there were other developments also like constructing buildings. Now let’s talk about the type of buildings and the burials of this period. When we talk about the burial, the most important features of it was the big stone boulders known as Megaliths.
These megaliths were used on the burial sites to mark the burial areas.
