About Kot Diji
Kot Diji (Sindhi: ڪوٽ ڏیجي; Urdu: کوٹ ڈیجی, IPA: [koːʈ ɖiːdʒiː]) is an ancient site which was part of the Indus Valley Civilisation, estimated to have been occupied around 3300 BCE. Located about 45 km (28 mi) south of Khairpur in the modern-day province of Sindh, Pakistan, it is on the east bank of the Indus River opposite Mohenjo-daro. The remains consist of two parts: the citadel area on the high ground (about 12 m [39 ft]), and the area around it. The Pakistan Department of Archaeology excavated at Kot Diji in 1955 and 1957.
