| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Balochistan is an ancient land though the history of its people and
earliest inhabitation is shrouded in mist and debate. Its geographical
location had given it a distinct position as a bridge between the
Indian and Mesopotamian civilisations. Archaeological discoveries
at Mehergarh in Balochistan date it among the earliest civilisations in
the world; the Kech civilisation in central Makran dates back to 4000
BC; the buried city near Zahidan, the provincial capital in western
Balochistan, now in Iran, dates back to 3000 BC |
