Concurrently with this large-scale excavation work, that great explorer of Western Asia, the late Sir Aurel Stein, undertook to survey the little-known areas of Baluchistan on the extreme western edge of British India and to search for prehistoric sites: his two journeys, in North Baluchistan in 1926-27 and in South Baluchistan in 1927-28, brought to light a vast amount of material of first-rate importance for linking the prehistory of north-western India with the other areas of ancient civilization in Iran and Mesopotamia. - [Previous: c8.13](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.piggott-1950.c8.13) - [Next: c8.15](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.piggott-1950.c8.15) - [Up: c8](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.piggott-1950.c8) ## Cites (2) - [Harappā](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.harappa) - [Mohenjo-daro](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.mohenjo-daro) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.piggott-1950.c8.14](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.piggott-1950.c8.14) · Pramāṇa
