Here are my observations about 2500 years old Chandraketugarh Bengal India
Woman were housemakers, dancers, musicians, mahout, warriors, horse riders, farmers
Man mainly did outside jobs such as fighting, farming. Man were clean shaved

Tabla & dholak & trumpet were only played by woman. She also played other musical instruments otherwise played by man.
Majority of deities were female. Two exception were found so far.
Man and woman remained upper bare while 'Native Genda Phool' was majorly used
3/
They had moulds to mass produce Terracotta figurines. Intricate art on wet soil is not possible by hands
Necklace size of youg woman was round neck, married woman wore dangling necklaces
Bindi was worn by both married and unmarried women

Chandraketugarh beats Khajuraho by miles. Didn't post pics here as it may not go well with many.
