............................ was a Harappan trading post in Afghanistan.
Shortughai
The Harappans set up distant outposts to secure raw materials; the most famous in the north-west is a settlement on the Amu Darya (Oxus) in northern Afghanistan.
Shortughai, excavated by the French archaeologist Henri-Paul Francfort, yielded Harappan pottery, seals and bricks, and served to procure lapis lazuli from the Badakhshan mines, so it is regarded as a Harappan trading colony.
Chanhudaro (a bead-making centre), Kot Diji (an early Harappan fortified site) and Amri (a pre-Harappan and Harappan site) all lie in Sindh in present-day Pakistan, not in Afghanistan.
Hence, Shortughai.
