Answers
The excavations first began in 2005 and within a year 116 burial sites were discovered. Due to this, it was referred to as one of India's largest known necropolis in the Chalcolithic period.
The burial sites are different from Indus Valley Civilization. The coffins are 4 legged and the tombs had underground chambers.
In the tombs are found systematically arranged vases, bowls and pots near the body.
There is rice found in those pots buried along with the bodies of the troops
In one coffin upon excavation, 8 anthropomorphic figures (something that looks like humans) were found on it.
One thing that is extraordinary is that the burials were similar to vedic culture and not Indus Valley culture
Impressions of cloth to wrap the bodies suggests purification of corpses like those practiced in Hindu customs today.
