SindhTombProtected
Suleman Faqir was a disciple or follower of Naseer Muhammad Kalhoro and his comrade in the struggle of freedom against the Mughals till his death in 1692 CE. These white-washed Kalhora period (18th Century CE) tombs hold the mortal remains of Suleman Lund Baloch and his son Fakiro. In recognition of his faithful service, Mian Naseer allotted him the putt or jagir where the graveyard stands and to this day the village is remembered as Putt Suleman. The tomb is constructed with burnt bricks surmounted by an octagonal drum, with recessed niches in the external facade.
