XXVIII NO.1, 2013 THE CULTURAL LEGACY OF BALOCH CIVILIZATION Archaeology Jamil Hussain Baloch*Dr Gul Hasan Baloch† Azmatullah Baloch‡ & Hamid Ali Baloch§ ABSTRACT Balochistan is very rich in cultural Heritage as this land has been inhabited since Paleolithic times down to the late historic times. There are thousands of Prehistoric, Pro-to-historic, and historic archaeological sites scattered throughout Balochistan. A few of them have been excavated and others are remaining and there can be many more sites in Balochistan if surveys are conducted. The cultural heritage of Balochistan reflects the nomadic life of Baloch proving that they are indigenous people of Balochistan who brought a revolution with many new ideas such as agriculture, mud brick houses, domestication of animals, use of fire, introduction of pottery, clothing industry etc. This paper discusses about the cultural legacy of Baloch in Prehistoric times. as well as throws light on Balochistan through Chalcolithic Age, Bronze Age and Iron Age. BALOCHISTAN THROUGH THE AGES The land of Balochistan has been a cradle of civilizations throughout the history (Jamil 2013: 1-3), Mehrgarh as it is known as the oldest settlement in South Asia flourished in 8th millennium BC., and marked the beginning of Neolithic revolution in this land (Jarrige 1995: 12). Although this land is of harsh, rough and dry geographical nature; but still many cultures thrived, flourished and saw their downfall in this land. Today we have thousands of archaeological sites in Balochistan. Some of them were discovered by the great archaeologist. Moreover, Sir Aurel Stein was the pioneer of archaeological activities in Balochistan (Jamil 2010: 30-37). A few of them have been excavated and others are still not studied. The excavated sites are * Research Scholar of TIAC, Quaid-I-Azam University, Islamabad. † Pro-Vice Chancellor at LUAWMS, Uthal. ‡ TIAC, Quaid-I-Azam University Islamabad. § Lecturer at Balochi Department, University of Balochistan, Quetta. - 2 - Mehrgarh, Nausharo, Pirak, in Kachi Plains, Dumb Sadat and Kili Gul Mohammad in Quetta Valley, Periano Gundai in Zhob, Rana Gundai in Loralai, Sohr Damb in Nal, Adam Buthi and Murda Sang in Las Bela and Miri Kalat and Shai Tump in Kech Valley, Makran (Jamil 2013: 1-20). This cultural heritage of Balochistan gives us a very important clue about the history of Baloch as it reflects the rural and nomadic life of Baloch. The findings from these sites are very much similar to Baloch Culture proving that it is the indigenous culture of Balochistan. The most striking evidences are beads, tradition of Saadh making, pebble tools, and the depiction of fish motifs and Balochi Embroidery patterns on the potteries found throughout Balochistan. On the basis of prevailing traditions and the ones recently died or dying we can reconstruct the history of cultural development of Baloch who have been living in Balochistan since time immemorial. The history of earth goes back to millenniums years old and similarly the cultural activities also begun millenniums year’s age. Needless to say that every time human being refined his cultural by discovering new tools and in this way human being from barbarism developed to a civilized society where everyone was prosperous. Moreover, the scholars have divided this long time into three eras. a) Prehistoric Era b) Pro-to-historic Era c) Historic Era This paper will only shed light on the cultural legacy of Baloch in Prehistoric era. The prehistoric cultural activities have been started two million years ago and continued until 2000 BC (Qazi 1998: 2). However, there are three more cultural phases in prehistory: a) Paleolithic – early stone age (approximately 100,000 - 10,000BC) b) Mesolithic – middle stone age (approximately 10,000 – 8,000 BC) c) Neolithic –

Design: Samples of stool and drinking water supply of affected area collected in Cary- Blair transport medium, inoculated on various media. The isolated strains were identified as responsible for diarrheal outbreak tested against antibiotics. The strain and antibiogram was further confirmed by Agha Khan University Hospital Laboratory in Karachi. Setting: Bolan Medical College Hospital, Quetta. Main outcome measures: Isolation of Vibrio cholerae O1, Ogawa, El Tor, antibiogram against isolated strain, and control of spread of infection. Results: The etiological agent responsible for severe diarrheal disease outbreak was Vibrio cholerae O1, Ogawa El Tor. in which 148 persons affected including all ages and both sexes. Four deaths (2.7%) reported out of these affected patients. The isolated strain was same in all patients and water source. Susceptibility to antimicrobial drugs was determined showing sensitivity to Ampicillin, Choloramphenicol, Ofloxacin, Tetracycline, Nalidixic Acid , Gentamycin and resistance to Polymaxin B, and Co- trimaxazole.

  • Survey Report
    SAVE THE NATURE SURVEY REPORT BALOCHISTAN BLACK BEARIN PAB HILL, DISTRICT KHUZDARBALOCHISTAN [November2013] [ INTRODUCTION Balochistan, the largest province of Pakistan, has a rich floral and faunal diversity. Despite its global importance it has never been explored in detail nor been managed properly. The ecosystems are being degraded, depleted and deteriorated mainly due to the absence of appropriate management practices. As a result critical habitats continue to be degraded and many species of global importance have either become extinct or are critically endangered. The government has limited reach to the wilderness areas of the province, and little capacity or resources to undertake conservation activities. The extent of the issues is further augmented in these areas of the province due to inaccessibility and lack of human resources with the custodian department. Overgrazing; cutting of scanty vegetation by outsiders for sale as for fuel; indiscriminate hunting and trade in wild species are common practice especially in the bordering districts. Besides poverty and unawareness, the other most serious deficiency in environmental policy-making in the province lies in the lack of adequate and specifically trained human resources, able to generate new or to tap traditional knowledge needed for effective policy and proper implementation of the decisions. HABITAT AND LOCALITY OF BLOCHISTAN BLACK BEAR WADH Sub-Tehsil of district Khuzdar, Balohistan is very famous for its unique natural resources. It is predominantly inhabited by Mengal Tribe of Balochistan. The climate of the area is semi-arid with warm summers and mild winters. The target area, like rest of the Balochistan is also rich in mineral resources.

  • Harappan Geometry and Symmetry: a Study of Geometrical Patterns on Indus Objects
    Indian Journal of History of Science, 45.3 (2010) 343-368 HARAPPAN GEOMETRY AND SYMMETRY: A STUDY OF GEOMETRICAL PATTERNS ON INDUS OBJECTS M N VAHIA AND NISHA YADAV (Received 29 October 2007; revised 25 June 2009) The geometrical patterns on various Indus objects catalogued by Joshi and Parpola (1987) and Shah and Parpola (1991) (CISI Volumes 1 and 2) are studied. These are generally found on small seals often having a boss at the back or two button-like holes at the centre. Most often these objects are rectangular or circular in shape, but objects of other shapes are also included in the present study. An overview of the various kinds of geometrical patterns seen on these objects have been given and then a detailed analysis of few patterns which stand out of the general lot in terms of the complexity involved in manufacturing them have been provided. It is suggested that some of these creations are not random scribbles but involve a certain understanding of geometry consistent with other aspects of the Indus culture itself. These objects often have preferred symmetries in their patterns. It is interesting to note that though the swastika symbol and its variants are often used on these objects, other script signs are conspicuous by their absence on the objects having geometric patterns. Key words: CISI volumes, Geometric pattern, Grid design, Swastika 1. INTRODUCTION Towns in the Indus valley have generally been recognised for their exquisite planning with orthogonal layout. This has been used to appreciate their understanding of geometry of rectangles and related shapes.
