Rakhigarhi, also known as Rakhi Garhi, is a hamlet in the Hisar District of Haryana, India, located 150 kilometers northwest of Delhi. It later became a component of the mature Indus Valley Civilisation, which lasted from 2600 to 1900 BCE. The location lies 27 kilometers from the seasonal Ghaggar River in the Ghaggar-Hakra River plain. Most experts estimate it to be between 80 and 100 hectares in size. However, some Indian archaeologists argue that Rakhigarhi's oldest settlements predate the Indus Valley Civilization and that the site is 300 hectares in size. Only 5% of the site has been explored, and much more remains to be discovered and published. Mitathal and the smaller location Lohari Ragho are two more nearby excavation sites that have yet to be excavated.
