From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Paryan-o-Ghundi, or Periano Ghundai, meaning Hill of Fairies, was an archaeological mound located in the Zhob District in Balochistan, Pakistan.[1] The site, located 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) west of the town of Zhob, was excavated in 1924 by Sir Aurel Stein and showed great resemblance to the Harappan culture.[1]

It was completely destroyed by the locals sometime after 1950.[1]
