Sanauli in Baghpat district of UP is known for which one of its following Archaeological remains?
A)
Megaliths monuments
B)
Harappan cemetery
C)
Neoliths instruments
D)
OCP culture remains

Correct Answer :   Harappan cemetery

The excavations in Sinauli were conducted by Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) in 2005-06 and in mid-2018. The remains found in 2005-06 season, the "Sanauli cemetery", belong to the Late Bronze Age, and were ascribed by excavation director Sharma to the Harappan Civilisation, though a Late Harappan Phase or post-Harappan identification is more likely.
 
Major findings from 2018 trial excavations are ascribed to the Ochre Coloured Pottery culture (OCP)/Copper Hoard Culture, which was contemporaneous with the Late Harappan culture.
