Q1Select the most incorrect statement about the Ganeshwar excavations.

A Ganeshwar is an important site of copper culture.
B It was discovered at the source of the Kantali river at Neem Ka Thana.
C The Ganeshwar excavations undertaken by the Department of Archaeology and Museums, Rajasthan, brought to light an approximately 5000-year-old culture.
D Copper was received here from the Harappans.
Explanation

Ganeshwar is recognised as a major Chalcolithic copper-culture site in Rajasthan, so that statement is not incorrect. Its association with the Kantali river near Neem Ka Thana is also a standard description of the site. Excavations by Rajasthan's Department of Archaeology and Museums revealed an ancient culture dated roughly around 5000 years old, so that point is acceptable. The incorrect statement is that Ganeshwar received copper from the Harappans. The site is known for copper objects and is usually discussed as a supplier or independent copper-culture centre, not as a recipient of copper from Harappan people.
