Exploring Karachi’s Hidden Spring and Secret Temple

via www.dailytimes.com.pk

Some amateur archaeologists exploring the fast vanishing traces of ancient Sindh have failed to find a mountain spring that was once discovered by British officials before partition of the subcontinent in the city’s western hills that, at that time, was part of an area called Deh Aurangi or Audangi, now spelt as Orangi. In their decades-old writings the British explorers reported about traces of prehistoric times… Some experts say there was a kotiro with traces of a temple near Hawkesbay and it has also vanished now.
