XXXV NO. 2, 2016 The Socio-Cultural Patterns and its Chronology: A Survey of Pre-Indus Archaeological sites in Balochistan Archaeology & History Jahanzeb Khan 1 Abstract Balochistan is archaeologically and culturally one of the richest regions of the world. Here one finds the birth of agriculture and first settlements along with similar developments taking place in Levant and Middle East. The cultural developments in Balochistan were scattered over a large area while culturally being connected with each other. The cultural developments continued over a long period of time, converting into traditions which were practiced in almost all cultural sites simultaneously. The following study focuses on the emergence of such cultural sites, there cultural interactions and conversion into traditions on one hand and there chronological sequence on the other hand. The study will also highlight the chronology of the sites, their phases and cultural patterns. The cultural sites are geographically divided into three regions i.e. Northern, Central and Southern Balochistan and cultural division is based on the sources of archaeological patterns developed in various Eras i.e. Early Food Producing Era and Regional Era. The next cultural developments (Integrational Era and localization Era) emerged on the banks of Indus River, resulting into the shifting of the center of cultural activities from Balochistan to Indus Plan; hence these are not incorporated in present study and thus lay beyond the scope of present paper. Chronologically, the timeline of present study is from 7th millennia BCE to 4th millennia BCE and culturally it covers the pre-Indus period sites, geographically located in present day Balochistan. Keywords: Early Food producing Era, Regional Era, Balochistan Archaeological Tradition, Pre-Indus culture, Chalcolithic period, Burial Rituals, Quetta Ware, Nal Ware, Togua Ware. 1 Assistant Professor Area Study Center, University of Balochistan Quetta, Pakistan. - 2 - Introduction The natural landscape of Balochistan accounts for the fact that one finds the nature of scattered and thinly populated cities in present day. The long, barren mountains and lowlands have constrained the population and settlements to a limit. This socio-cultural system of scattered and narrowly inhabited cities of Balochistan has long and deep roots in remote past and this hypothesis (small and scattered settlements) becomes more vibrant if we study the evolution of socio-cultural settlements in Balochistan.

Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and FATA are rich in livestock resources valuing US $10 billion; however, these could neither provide good economic return to producers nor quality food to consumers because of poor management. Similar wastage of natural resources is being observed throughout the world.

  • Flashpoint: Pakistan in Crisis
    To approach Rabwah, home to Pakistan’s minority Ahmadi sect, it is necessary to pass through Chiniot, an ancient town said to have been first populated by Alexander the Great of Macedonia, in 326 BC . Today, Chiniot, which stands amidst the lush green countryside of the Punjab province, is known chiefly for its skilled furniture craftsmen. The town is a bustling, but run-down urban centre – the cascading monsoon rain failing to wash away the grime and squalor that hangs all around. It is on the peeling, yellow-plastered walls of Chiniot that the first signs of the hatred directed against the Ahmadi community appear. The movement – named for its founder, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian (located in the Indian Punjab) – Karachi broke away from mainstream Islam in 1889. The slogans, etched out in the flowing Urdu script, call on Muslims to ‘Kill Ahmadi non-believers’. apparent every official building is heavily fortified – Rabwah, a town of some 50,000 people, houses even the holy places and the parks – testifying to the the largest concentration of Ahmadis in Pakistan. fact that Rabwah remains a town under siege. Flashpoint Overall, there are an estimated 1.5 million Ahmadis While the 1974 decision against Ahmadis was met in the country amongst a population of 55 million by anger within the community, worse was to come.

  • Accession of the States Had Been the Big Issue After the Division of Subcontinent Into Two Major Countries
    Journal of Historical Studies Vol. II, No.I (January-June 2016) An Historical Overview of the Accession of Princely States Attiya Khanam The Women University, Multan Abstract The paper presents the historical overview of the accession of princely states. The British ruled India with two administrative systems, the princely states and British provinces. The states were ruled by native rulers who had entered into treaty with the British government. With the fall of Paramountacy, the states had to confirm their accession to one Constituent Assembly or the other. The paper discusses the position of states at the time of independence and unfolds the British, congress and Muslim league policies towards the accession of princely states. It further discloses the evil plans and scheming of British to save the congress interests as it considered the proposal of the cabinet Mission 1946 as ‘balkanisation of India’. Congress was deadly against the proposal of allowing states to opt for independence following the lapse of paramountancy. Congress adopted very aggressive policy and threatened the states for accession. Muslim league did not interfere with the internal affair of any sate and remained neutral. It respected the right of the states to decide their own future by their own choice. The paper documents the policies of these main parties and unveils the hidden motives of main actors. It also provides the historical and political details of those states acceded to Pakistan. 84 Attiya Khanam Key Words: Transfer of Power 1947, Accession of State to Pakistan, Partition of India, Princely States Introduction Accession of the states had been the big issue after the division of subcontinent into two major countries.

  • Defining Shariʿa the Politics of Islamic Judicial Review by Shoaib
    Defining Shariʿa The Politics of Islamic Judicial Review By Shoaib A. Ghias A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Jurisprudence and Social Policy in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Malcolm M. Feeley, Chair Professor Martin M. Shapiro Professor Asad Q. Ahmed Summer 2015 Defining Shariʿa The Politics of Islamic Judicial Review © 2015 By Shoaib A. Ghias Abstract Defining Shariʿa: The Politics of Islamic Judicial Review by Shoaib A. Ghias Doctor of Philosophy in Jurisprudence and Social Policy University of California, Berkeley Professor Malcolm M. Feeley, Chair Since the Islamic resurgence of the 1970s, many Muslim postcolonial countries have established and empowered constitutional courts to declare laws conflicting with shariʿa as unconstitutional. The central question explored in this dissertation is whether and to what extent constitutional doctrine developed in shariʿa review is contingent on the ruling regime or represents lasting trends in interpretations of shariʿa. Using the case of Pakistan, this dissertation contends that the long-term discursive trends in shariʿa are determined in the religio-political space and only reflected in state law through the interaction of shariʿa politics, regime politics, and judicial politics. The research is based on materials gathered during fieldwork in Pakistan and datasets of Federal Shariat Court and Supreme Court cases and judges. In particular, the dissertation offers a political-institutional framework to study shariʿa review in a British postcolonial court system through exploring the role of professional and scholar judges, the discretion of the chief justice, the system of judicial appointments and tenure, and the political structure of appeal that combine to make courts agents of the political regime.
