Nindowari

Nindowari (Urdu: نندارہ), also known as Nindo Damb, is a Kulli archaeological site, dating back to chalcolithic period, in Kalat District of Balochistan, Pakistan.

[1][2] Nindowari is located some 240 kilometres (150 mi) northwest of Karachi, in Ornach Valley in Tehsil Wadh of the Kalat District.

[1] The settlement was built on a flat schist bed with a central quadrangular platform which was surrounded by buildings on one side.

[2] The site was probably abandoned due to a major uplift which resulted in cutting off of the water source from the Kud River.

Nal ware (old pottery from Indus Civilization) excavated from the site suggested a pre-Kulli occupation and that the Harrapans were settled in the area in early periods (3200 - 2500 BC).

Nal ware and terracotta figurines with drawings of bulls (similar to the seals above) showed that Nindowari was once occupied by the Harappans
