Sinauli: Unearthed

From BoardGameGeek:

Delve into the soil of ancient India in Sinauli Unearthed, where players become rival archaeologists unearthing the secrets of a Harappan site. Each turn, you send meeples to excavate deeper levels of the Sinauli Soil Board, unearthing relics like vases, weapons, burial boxes, and the legendary chariots. But digging is just the start: relics can be traded for coins, used to fulfill museum contracts, or published as groundbreaking research. As you manage influence, coins, and your crew, you'll sway political favor to determine the final award criteria for India's prestigious Bharat Ratna. The player with the highest point total, wins. With variable player order, rare finds, and high replayability, Sinauli Unearthed blends real archaeology with clever Euro mechanics for an engaging print-and-play dig into history.
