"Hasmukh Dhirajlal Sankalia (1908-1989) was an Indian Sanskrit scholar and archaeologist specialising in proto- and ancient Indian history. He is considered to have pioneered archaeological excavation techniques in India, with several significant discoveries from the prehistoric period to his credit. Sankalia's (success at Nasik-Jorwe inspired him to excavate the site at Maheshwar (the Mahishmati of the Haihayas, as described in the Puranas) to prove the tradition's historicity. The excavation was carried out at the site and at Navdatoli in 1952-53 in a joint expedition with the Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda. This revealed a developed chalcolithic culture dating to between the decline of the Harappan Civilisation and the beginning of the Early Historical Period, largely explaining the hiatus between the periods. The culture was interpreted by Sankalia, mainly on the basis of resemblance of its pottery to that of Iran, as of Aryan origin. The horizontal excavation at Navdatoli was made in 1957-59 to reveal the settlement pattern, reconstruct the socioeconomic life of the chalcolithic people, and corroborate Sankalia's Aryan hypothesis."

Its careful excavation has show that it has something more to tell us besides Nevasa. This contact with similar cultures in Central India, while a small terracotta theriomorphic painted bull-like (fig. 62) is the one positive evidence of affinities of the Deccan and Central Indian cultures with Iran and Western Asia. Chandoli again has confirmed and elaborated the evidence of the custom of using threads of silk and cotton for stringing copper-bead neck laces. Here, instead of silk, was found a thread of flax. The latter again shows acquaintance with this grain, found for the first time in Navdatoli in Central India." from the Preface. Only the slightest external wear, else, Pristine.
