Aror

Aror (or Alor or Arorkot) is the medieval name of the city of Rohri in Sindh, modern Pakistan.

[3][4][5] As Roruka, capital of the Sauvira Kingdom, it is mentioned as an important trading center in early Buddhist literature.

[13] In 962 it was hit by a massive earthquake that changed the course of the Indus River and ruined the town's mud brick building,[14] thereby setting into play the city's decline, and eventual re-settlement at Rohri,[15] along the modern-day shores of the Indus.

[16] Most of Aror's ruins have been lost, though some arches of a mosque built shortly after the 8th century Arab invasion remain standing.

[16] The Chattan Shah ji Takri shrine is built atop a high rock outside the city, and is traditionally believed to be a companion of Ali, cousin of Muhammad.
