Consider the following pairs :
(Historical place) - (Well-known for)
1. Burzahom : Rock-cut shrines
2. Chandra-ketugarh : Terracotta art
3. Ganeshwar : Copper artefacts
Which of the pairs given above is/are correctly matched?
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation
1. Pair 1 is incorrectly matched. Burzahom, a Neolithic site in Kashmir, is well-known for its pit dwellings, stone tools, and bone tools, not Rock-cut shrines.
2. Pair 2 is correctly matched. Chandraketugarh in West Bengal is a significant archaeological site famous for its rich Terracotta art dating from the pre-Mauryan to the Pala period.
3. Pair 3 is correctly matched. The Ganeshwar-Jodhpura cultural complex in Rajasthan is noted for its extensive findings of pre-Harappan Copper artefacts, suggesting it was a major copper working centre.
Therefore, only pairs 2 and 3 are correct.
