![](/pics/yiAEgyoJodhz-s.jpeg) dalip daswani | | Sindh has been perhaps the most significant market place through the history of human civilization.
Perhaps why trading - bartering - exchanging - even gambling is so much a part of our `genetic' / cultural make-up ?
Also I believe the origins of the Sindhi community can be traced back to Mohenjo Daro - the third millenium B.C.
Any historians on this network?Private Reply to dalip daswani |
