  • The people of Malwa culture reached Maharashtra around 1600 B.C.E. Permanent villages of farmers were first established in Maharashtra by the Malwa people.
  •  After arriving in Maharashtra, they came into contact with the neolithic people in Karnataka. 
  • It resulted in a few changes in the potmaking technology of Malwa people as far as shapes of the pots and designs are concerned. 
  • Thus, they were considered the first farmers of Maharashtra as they were the first to establish in Maharashtra.
