H. Prince Rahim Aga Khan V. The site of a ruined fort was noted by the well-known Hungarian archeologist, Aurel Stein, during his 1906 expedition (see Stein&#8217;s Serindia, 1921). However, the ruins of the said fort have been mostly erased by the contractors working on the Chitral-Mastuj road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Although archeological excavation and study were carried out on graves in Shapiro Noghor mound in main Parwak but rock carvings and ruins of Tori Lasht have not been studied so far. The carbon dating of the 2003 and 2007 excavation of the Shapiro Noghor dated the site to 6th to 9th century A.D, and experts see it as an extension of the Gandhara Grave Culture which was first discovered by Ahmad Hassan Dani in Swat and Dir valleys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The rock carvings and other archeological assets in the area need a thorough study by researchers and care &amp; preservation from the concerned authorities &amp; local community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Similar rock carvings also appear in Lot Ovir, Laspur and Mulkhow as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-7387b849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div
