Urban Traditions and Historic Environments in Sindh : A Fading Legacy of Shikarpoor, Historic City Hardback
by Anila Naeem
Part of the Asian Cities series
Hardback
Description
Shikarpoor Historic City, in Sindh, Pakistan, has a rich historical heritage: as a central point on caravan trade routes, it served as the gateway to Afghanistan and Central Asia.
In recognition of that history, in 1998 the government of Sindh named it a protected heritage site-but that status hasn't prevented the ongoing destruction of the city's historic fabric.
This book tells the story of Shikarpoor and presents as complete a picture of its threatened historical fabric as possible, through copious maps and images past and present.
