Publisher Description: Charsadda has long been recognised as one of the most important cities in the second urbanisation of South Asia. For its chronology, however we are still reliant on the 50 year old conclusions of Sir Mortimer Wheeler, which have been heavily criticised in more recent years. This study reports on new excavations at Charsadda designed to illuminate the origins and development of the early period of the site, and to create a typology and chronology for the ceramics and structures found at the site. The study also contains a broader regional synthesis. |
