Agham Kot

Agham Kot is the site of an old city in the lower Indus country, its remains spread across mounds and cultivated ground. Known in earlier accounts as Agham, it belonged to the network of settlements shaped by the changing river channels of Sindh. A shrine here honours Makhdoom Muhammad Ismail Soomro, a sixteenth-century Sufi teacher revered by the Patoli community and other devotees. The ruined city and its sacred sites preserve several layers of local history.
