Vakar North-East
SindhSettlementProtected
This site is situated on the southern slopes of a sand dune, where there is a rivulet that provides rain water to the Vakar Valley and perhaps to the lakes in the prehistoric times. The cultural materials were very thinly scattered, indicating the presence of a camp. The finds consist mainly of potshards in various shapes and sizes. Terracotta bangles and some chert flakes were also noticed.
