"The Indus Valley site of Bhagwanpura, Bihar, one of the most important
sites
of the Indus Valley Civilisation, is lying buried under heaps of
cowdung, and
is being used as a site for manure decomposition.  A recent visit to the
site
by a team of historians and archaeologists brought into focus the
pathetic
condition of the site", Motilal Banarsidas Newsletter, January 2001,
