The inspections of correct history of the antiquated signs seems cryptic itself in order not to be researched and investigated concerning to the existed remains of ancient culture and civilization in coastal area of Balochistan. Before twenty years, when we urbanized to Pasni city where i sought an ancient cemetery mysteriously some kilometers away from our home. We were unpermitted by elders to budge for that ancient graveyard which was regarded as house of wraith and specters.
