The Rohri Flint Quarries

Acheulian Workshop

The Acheulian workshop of Ziarat Pir Shaban 1 (ZPS1). The Acheulian is a Paleolithic Culture (about 50,000 B.C.) characterized by the presence of bifaces and handaxes. Very little is known about the culture. Excavations were carried out here in March 1995. Thousands of flint flakes and bifaces were found.
