Rows 2 and 3 are correctly matched. Inamgaon in Maharashtra is a prominent Chalcolithic settlement. Mangadu in Kerala is an important Megalithic urn burial site. Row 1 is incorrect as Chandraketugarh is located in West Bengal, not Odisha. Row 4 is incorrect because Salihundam in Andhra Pradesh is a major hilltop Buddhist stupa complex, not rock cut cave shrines.
