Chakar Bazar
BalochistanSettlementProtected
These archaeological remains lie just east of the village of Chakar Bazar, about 8 km west of Kuddan. The surface is covered with the remains of potter activities (Firing places, ashes) and the remains of eroded buildings made of dry stone which undoubtedly mark it a settlement site. The surface finds include Shahi Tump cemetery assemblage, mostly grey ware but some shards of fine red ware with white decoration dating the site from the 3rd millennium BCE.
