| Description |
Onshore explorations were carried out in Dwarka, Bet Dwarka, Aramda, Kachhigadhi, Okhamadi and Amrapura area. At Dwarka about 1.6 km2 area was explored between water depths of 1.5 to 20 m off Samudranarayan temple. Diving was carried out at about 40 locations and 29 buoys were marked with the archaeological findings. Similarly underwater explorations were also undertaken in north and south of the present Bet Dwarka jetty at five different locations. Archaeological findings of the exploration in 1998 have been reported in this paper.
