Bara is a village mainly having two Jatt Sikh surnames Chakkal & Heer. It is archeological site in Rupnagar district in the Indian state of Punjab. It is located on the left bank of a seasonal monsoon rivulet called Budki Nadi, about 6 kilometers east of the city of Ropar in Punjab.[1] Bara is the site of significant archeological excavations connected with the Indus Valley Civilization.[2] It has some evidence of being home to a culture (sometimes called Baran culture) that was a pre-Harappan strand of the Indus Valley Civilization.[2] Baran and Harappan cultures may have intertwined and coexisted in some places, such as Kotla Nihang Khan, also in modern-day Punjab.[3]
