'''Binjor - 4MSR''' ('''Thed''' of the local villagers) is an archaeological site in [[India]], near the international border between [[Punjab (Pakistan)|Punjab]] and [[Rajasthan]]. It is situated a couple of kilometers from Binjor village, [[Anupgarh tehsil]], [[Sri Ganganagar district]].<ref name=ST>Subramanian, TS.

4MSR, in the Ghaggar river ([[Ghaggar-Hakra River]]) valley and excavated by [[Archaeological Survey of India]] (ASI), is widely considered as an Early Harappan and Mature Harappan site ([[Indus Valley Civilization]]). There are no indications that a Late Harappan phase existed. In the Ghaggar river valley, explorations and excavations had been done in several sites. These sites included [[Kalibangan]], 46 GB and Binjor 1, 2, 3 and 4, [[Rakhigarhi]] and [[Baror]].<ref name=ST /><br />
"The purpose of the present excavation at 4MSR is to learn about the Early Harappan deposits, relationship with other contemporary sites and to fill the gap between the Late Harappan phase and the [[Painted Grey Ware culture]]", Sanjay Manjul, Director, the Institute of Archaeology and head of the excavation at 4MSR, said.<ref name=ST /><ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.frontline.in/arts-and-culture/heritage/telltale-furnaces/article9721082.ece?ref=sliderNews|title=Telltale furnaces|date=2017-06-07|work=Frontline|access-date=2017-06-10|language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.frontline.in/arts-and-culture/heritage/a-complete-sequence/article9721279.ece?ref=sliderNews|title=A complete sequence|date=2017-06-07|work=Frontline|access-date=2017-06-10|language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.frontline.in/arts-and-culture/heritage/contrasting-mounds/article9721282.ece|title=Contrasting mounds|date=2017-06-07|work=Frontline|access-date=2017-06-10|language=en}}</ref><br />
