The study focused on five villages in India that were once part of the civilisation --Alamgirpur (UP), Masudpur (Haryana), Lohari Ragho (Hisar), Khanak (Bhiwani, Haryana), Rakhigarhi (Haryana) and Farmana (Rohtak, Haryana). The research team recovered 172 pottery fragments from these sites and a lipid residue analysis was done on them. The ‘ceramic lipid residue analysis’ has recently become a powerful tool for figuring out the food habits of ancient people. It has been used across the world in many significant archaeological studies as ceramics are one of the most ubiquitous artefacts recovered during archaeological excavations of ‘proto’ and historic South Asian sites.
