Archaeological Sites of Punjab

Due to its rigorous past, the best part of ancient Punjab is either in its ruins or underground.

==Dholbaha, Hoshiarpur==
The excavations at Dholbaha, the ancient temple town at Hoshiarpur, date back to the Pleistocene period of Stone Age and show evidence of continued development of civilization right until the 7th and 8th century A.D. 
The museum containing these relics is situated in Hoshiarpur city. 
==Sanghol, Fatehgarh Sahib==
