The correct answer is: d) All of the above<\/strong><\/p>\n Dolmens are a type of megalithic tomb that are found in abundance in the Indian states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. They are made up of large stones that are arranged in a rectangular or oval shape, and they often have a capstone that rests on top of the stones. Dolmens are believed to have been used as burial chambers, and they are often found in association with other megalithic monuments, such as stone circles and barrows.<\/p>\n The distribution of dolmens in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana is not uniform. They are found most commonly in the districts of Kadapa, Kurnool, Visakhapatnam, East Godavari, Guntur, and Prakasam. In these districts, dolmens are often found in clusters, and they can be found in a variety of settings, including on hilltops, in valleys, and near rivers.<\/p>\n The construction of dolmens is thought to have begun in the Neolithic period, and they continued to be built until the Iron Age. The purpose of dolmens is not entirely clear, but they are believed to have been used as burial chambers. The dead were often buried in a crouched position, and they were accompanied by grave goods, such as pottery, tools, and weapons.<\/p>\n Dolmens are an important part of the archaeological record of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. They provide evidence of the early cultures that inhabited these regions, and they offer insights into the beliefs and practices of these people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [amp_mcq option1=”Kadapa and Kurnool districts” option2=”Visakhapatnam and East Godavari districts” option3=”Guntur and Prakasam districts” option4=”All of the above” correct=”option4″]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[973],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-71854","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-andhra-pradesh-gk-mcq","no-featured-image-padding"],"yoast_head":"\n
