An Engineer & History! What a combination Bro! I thought I was writing the tips. Really excellent depiction of history. The Dogra / Dard war was not fully known, but there is a movie on this. I think I can remember this. This is your best page ever!

Great helpful page and beautiful pics, Amir! There is an interesting exhibition moving through Europe about Gandhara Art and the rock carvings that made me interested in that area even more. Hope to get there soon!
