Nanamau is a village in Kuraoli block of Mainpuri district, Uttar Pradesh, India. It is located several kilometers east of Kuraoli, and there is an archaeological site just west of the village. As of 2011, it had a population of 2,259, in 365 households.
Nanamau is located 6 km east of Kuraoli. There are two crescent-shaped lakes west of the village, both within 1 km. The larger one is to the southwest and the smaller one is to the south, east of the bigger one. 400 m west of the village is an archaeological mound associated with the Ochre Coloured Pottery culture. The soil in this area is hard and calcareous.[1]
Several pottery fragments associated with the Ochre Coloured Pottery culture have been found at the mound west of Nanamau. They were strewn over a large area, and not very many were found. Inhabitants of the ancient site probably would have used the local lakes both as a source of water and for fishing. Just to the west of the mound, there is a low-lying strip of land that "would have been easily used for agricultural purposes".[1]
