Nausharo, Archaeological site from Harappan period in Balochistan, Pakistan

The excavation site of Nausharo extends across multiple settlement layers, containing structures with oblong fortification walls and ancient pottery workshops from different periods.

French archaeologists conducted extensive excavations between 1985 and 1996, revealing a continuous settlement pattern from 3000 to 1900 BCE during the Indus Valley civilization.

The materials discovered at Nausharo demonstrate advanced crafting techniques, including pottery production using mechanical wheels and metal processing technologies of copper artifacts.

The archaeological location, situated 6 kilometers from Mehrgarh site, provides researchers with comparative data about early urban development in South Asian societies.

Twelve specialized flint blades found at the pottery workshop indicate specific manufacturing processes used by ancient craftsmen for shaping clay on mechanical wheels.
