Thorse Khar site

Gilgit-BaltistanSettlementProtected
The site is located on the western side of the Thorsis Khar Ridge at its piedmont. Now the owner converted the place into a field. During the course of digging he found few arrow heads, jewelry and small beads etc. This site is really an important site because this area was used in the Rajas force in early period before shifting the royal seat to present palace from Thorse Khar. If proper excavation be carried out, it will be given more information about the history of the area.
