    Abstract
    Excavations at Bokhira (Porbandar, Gujarat, India) on the Saurashtra coast revealed at Protohistoric settlement dating back to the mid 3rd millennium B.C. Four trenches were laid in agricultural land where a habitational deposit of 50 cm was noticed. A large quantity of pottery, animal bones and other antiquities similar to those reported from Bed Dwarka, Rojdi and Rangpur were found at the site. The place being close to a creek must have been suitable for maritime activities and would have served as a safe harbour. A few ancient jetties have been reported earlier along the Porbandar creek
