square miles, though nowhere more than 10 feet deep. Majumdar’s field-work in Sind revealed a number of prehistoric sites around the edge of Lake Manchhar, some now islanded at ‘high-water’, though near the edge of the maximum extent of flooding. To the Manchhar region lead two of the most important routes from Baluchistan in use today - the more northerly, through the Mula Pass and down the course of that river, turns south along the edge of the foothills and runs to Johi and the Manchhar region, while the southern route comes from the Mashkai and Nal valleys over the Lak Phusi and the Lak Rohel, entering Sind at Pandi Wahi, near Johi. In addition to these two routes there is clear evidence of traffic down the valley of the Gaj River to the same region in prehistoric times.
