Sindhology

Europe North America Oceania Sindhology (Sindhi: سنڌيات‎) is a field of South Asian studies and academic research that covers the history, society, culture, literature and people of Sindh, Pakistan.

The subject was first brought into the academic circles with the establishment of the Institute of Sindhology at Sindh University in 1964.

Since then, it has developed into a discipline that covers the aspects of history and archaeology from the Indus Valley civilization to the modern Sindhi society.

This enables the scope of the study to cover the antiquities, relics, culture, traditions, and literature with unique forms of music, art, and poetry that has prevailed in both the ancient and modern Sindh.

[6] The first major attempt to bring together the leading Sindhologists was an international seminar 'Sindh Through the Centuries' held in Karachi in the spring of 1975 under the auspices of the Government of Sindh.
