The Jorwe culture (1600 BCE–1000 BCE) is named after the archeological site in Jorwe village, Ahmednagar district, Maharashtra where distinct red matt-finish pottery with black painted designs was discovered. This Late Harappan Phase culture existed in the Deccan Plateau alongside declining urban centers elsewhere. Key aspects include geometric pottery motifs, agricultural practices like rice/wheat cultivation, small rural villages of mud-brick houses, and localized trade as opposed to long-distance exchange.
