The site situated on the left of the track leading to the Oil and Gas Exploration Company has on its south an open valley, which is used for farming. Thin scatter of surface material, indicating seasonal occupation of the site, includes plain, painted, glazed, incised and stamped ware terracotta bead and Chert blades and flakes. The site was perhaps occupied from the Mesolithic to the Mature Indus period.
