Bones and remains of camels have been found at the Harappan Civilization site of Kalibangan located along the dried river bed of the Ghaggar-Harka in Hanumangarh district of northern Rajasthan, India. This suggests the single-humped dromedary camel was present or traded during the Mature Harappan period in the third millennium BCE, much earlier than previously assumed. Camel figurines and motifs are also known from IVC artifacts.
