Pir Mozal Shah
SindhSettlementProtected
This site lying on low sand dunes, skirted with agricultural fields, is situated about half a km to the east of the shrine of Pir Mozal Shah. Here a hearth with potshards scattered around it was found in situ. Cultivation disturbing the thinly strewn cultural material on the surfaces has spoiled the archaeological context here. Artifacts from the site include plain, painted and applique pottery as well as stone objects. Some of them are associated with the Hakra, while others to the latter periods and can be placed between the 4th and 2nd millennium BC.
