The Aravalli Range has been site of three broad stages of human history, early Stone Age saw the use of flint stones; mid-Stone Age starting from 20,000 BP saw the domestication of cattle for agriculture; and post Stone Age starting from 10,000 BP saw the development of the [[Kalibangan]] civilization, 4,000 years old Aahar civilization and 2,800 years old Gneshwar civilization
<!-- The three stone age cultures as traceable in Rajasthan are (1) Early Stone Age, (2) Mid-Stone Age and (3) Post Stone Age.(1) Early Stone Age: In this stage of human civilisation man was in the habit of using many type of tools made of stone. This culture flourished on he bank of several rivers and their tributaries of Rajasthan traces of which have been found in the districts of Ajmer, Alwar, Bhilwara, Chittorgarh, Jaipur, Jhalawar, Jodhpur, Jalore, Pali, Tonk etc.(2) Mid-Stone Age : The second stage of human development in Rajasthan is about 50 thousand years old. The tools of this page are largely identified as scramer and pointed tools. Such tools have been found in valleys of Luni river and its tributaries, valley of Bairach river in the Chittorgarh district and also in Viratnagar. Till this age, mankind had no knowledge of domestication of cattles for agricultural activities. (3) Post-Stone Age: The Third stage of human development is 10 thousand years old, the post-stone age. The tools of this age were found in the excavations of Bagaur in Udaipur and Tilwara in Marwar. The excavations of Ganeshwar (Sikar), Aahar (Udaipur), Gilund (Udaipur) and Kalibanga (Shriganganagar) not only brought to light the representative materials of copper stone age but also that of copper age which in turn provides enough information about the ancient civilisation as developed and flourished in Rajasthan.
A large region was covered under the famous Indus Valley civilization. The remains of Pilibanga, Kalibanga, Rangmahal, etc. as discovered in Rajasthan indicate that Indus Valley civilization.
