Shri M.L. K. Murty of the Deccan Collage. Post-Graduate and Research Insstitute, Poona, explored the river Rallakalava Around Vedullacheruvu, 4 km. north-west of renigunta on Kalahasti Road. The site was later visited by Professor H. D. Sankalia, Dr. V.N. Misra and Shri S.N. Rajguru. Tools of the Early and Middle Stone Ages were found in the loose Gravels as well as from well-defined river-sections and those of the Late Stone Age form the top of the river terrace. The River-sections showed three sycles of deposition i well-cemented pabbly gravel overlain by a thick deposit of red silt, yielding rolled tools of the Early Stone Age ii loose pebbly gravel laid up against the earlier one and capped with Yellow silt, yielding a mixed industry of the Early and Middle Stone Ages and iii recent. The Early Stone Age tools were made of quartzite, worked both unifacially and bifacially and included rastrocarinates, choppers, cleaers, scrapers and handaxes ranging from crude to very fine in from. The Middle Stone Age assemblage, dominated by scrapers, indicated the use of fine-grained quartzite as the raw material. Late Stone Age tools, of the non-geometric type, were made of crystall-quartz. |
