The remains found at  these places   have been  kept at Museum at Kalibanga and National museum at Delhi.
          Earlier,  Hanumangarh  was  known as "BHATNER".   In year 1805, emperor Soorat Singh of Bikaner captured   BHATNER  after  defeating Bhatis  and as the day of his victory was Tuesday (known as the day  of god "Hanuman"), he  named BHATNER as "HANUMANGARH".
