Explanation:

In India, settlements relating to the Chalcolithic phase are found in south-eastern Rajasthan, the western part of M.P., western Maharashtra, and in southern and eastern India.

• In south-eastern Rajasthan, two sites, one at Ahar and the other at Gilund, have been excavated. In western MP or Malwa, Kayatha and Eran have been excavated. Malwa-ware characteristic of the Malwa Chalcolithic culture of central and western India is considered the richest among Chalcolithic ceramics, and some of this pottery and other related cultural elements also appear in Maharashtra.
• However, the most extensive excavations have taken place in western Maharashtra. Several Chalcolithic sites, such as Jorwe, Nevasa, Daimabad in Ahmadanagar district; Chandoli, Songaon, and Inamgaon in Pune district; and also Prakash and Nasik have been excavated. They all relate to the Jorwe culture named after Jorwe, the type-site situated on the left bank of the Pravara river, a tributary of the Godavari, in Ahmadanagar district. The Jorwe culture owed much to the Malwa culture, but it also shared elements of the Neolithic culture of the south.
