Oshap Damb Mound

BalochistanSettlementProtected
The site measures 40 x 25 m with maximum height of 10 m. The site must be quite extensive originally but heavy encroachment took away its large portion. Stein had visited this site in 1926 and Henry Field visited it in 1955. The exposed walls are made of stone. It is probably a double story building.
