Sindh (
Sind) ( / सिंध / ) is one of the provinces of
Pakistan. It was first settled about 2 million years ago by the Riwat people, and the region's fertility around the
Indus River led to the development of the
Indus Valley Civilization, and the advanced cities of
Harappa and
Mohenjo-Daro between 3300-1300 BCE. Sindh has been exploited by invaders from old time among
Arghuns, Turks and the exploits of the Beg-lar family, who were
Turks of Turmuz who migrated to
Samarkand and then to
Sindh.
