Khyber PakhtunkhwaSettlementProtected
An archaeological site, in ruined condition, situated in Zako village and measures 120x100m. The original wall of the structures at the site are mostly re-built by the locals, probably for their personal use. Traces of original masonry can also be seen at various points of the exposed sections. Potshards can also be seen at different points. The findings suggest that the site was probably a settlement and occupied during the Kushan period.
