Gabar dams

Add links
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gabar dams, also known as the Gabarbands, are a series of walls and dams found in the Sindh and Balochistan provinces of Pakistan, constructed to store rainwater and divert the flow of rivers.[1] Some of them date to the 4th and 3rd millennia BCE.[2] There are around 15 such dams present in the Kirthar Mountains in the Sindh and Balochistan plateau.[3][4]
