Q94

The earliest archaeological site of India is

A.
Begagund
B.
Gofkral
C.
Pampur
D.
Burzahom
Answer

Answer: Option D

Solution

Answer: Option D
Solution:
The correct answer is Option D: Burzahom.

Burzahom is located in Jammu and Kashmir and is a very important archaeological site.
It shows evidence of early human settlements dating back to the Neolithic period.
This means it's one of the oldest places in India where we find evidence of people living there a very long time ago!
At Burzahom, archaeologists have found things like dwellings dug into the ground (pit-dwellings), stone tools, and pottery, which help us understand how people lived in that era.

The other options are not the earliest archaeological sites:
Begagund, Gofkral, and Pampur are also important places in Jammu and Kashmir, but they are not as old or as archaeologically significant as Burzahom when we are talking about the *earliest* sites in India.
