about the gallery
Nestled in Haryana’s Hisar district is Rakhigarhi, a village with links to the Indus Valley Civilisation. Residents here take pride in the fact that their lands comprise a site with links so ancient. Since the site’s discovery in the 1960s, some have even become collectors of the antiquities that crop up in abundance over their lands. As archaeologists try to uncover more facts from the village pegged as the largest site of the ancient civilisation, authorities are devising new ways to protect heritage sites that intersperse everyday life.
