Project Details
5. Project objectives and its relationship with Sectorial objectives:
A Comprehensive Survey for Archaeological and Heritage sites will be executed in all the merged districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Khyber, Orakzai, North Waziristan, South Waziristan, Kurram, Mohmand, Bajaur and ex F.R’s. (Peshawar, Kohat, Bannu, Lakki, Tank, D. I. Khan).
So far no proper Archaeological surveys have been conducted on scientific basis to explore Archaeological Heritage of the Tribal/Merged Areas. To know about the History, Socio- cultural, trade, economics etc. of ancient past of the region, one would rely on patronized means of international standards to identify and explore endangered or lost cultural and Archaeological heritage. It is fortunate to say that the entire tribal/merged districts are enriched with archaeological remains and as yet they are kept preserve by the nature, which need to be identified and unearthed. In 2016-17 the Directorate of Archaeology and Museums Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in celebration of conducted Archaeology Survey and reported more than 132 Archaeological and Heritage Sites and Monuments in only Tehsil Jamrud of District Khyber. From this survey we can easily assume that there of the past and for the future very few Archaeological expeditions have been carried out in the Tribal Areas. Though the land of Tribal Areas has never been very conducive for such expeditions, activities, perhaps due to conservative nature of locals, remoteness of the area, administrative bottlenecks and in recent year’s law and order situation. Before the situation get exasperated, the culturally rich heritage and Archaeological treasure of the lost civilizations need to be conserved and preserved on war footings.
For the purpose to conserve the Archaeological Heritage of Merged Areas the Directorate of Archaeology & Museums desired to initiate following activities in the merged areas:
Aims and objects.
• To conduct a detail and comprehensive Archaeological survey for identification of Archaeological/ Heritage sites;
• Detail Documentation of all reported / Identified sites
• Development of GIS mapping of all sites in all the Districts of Merged Areas;
• Restoration, Conservation and preservation of all potential sites.
The present project is being submitted in pursuance of these overall specified objectives having the following specific objectives.
