About
Hallur is an archaeological site located in the Haveri district, in the Indian state of Karnataka. Hallur, one of South India's earliest Iron Age sites, lies in a semi-arid region with scrub vegetation, located on the banks of the river Tungabhadra. The site is a small mound about 6.4 m high. The site was first discovered by Nagaraja Rao in 1962, and excavated in 1965. Further sampling was carried out in the late 1990s for the recovery of archaeobotanical evidence and new high precision radiocarbon dates
