Belonging to Macrophase 3b, the period in Barikot reflects significant historical and cultural developments, specifically the annexation of Swat by the Sakas and Parthians. Evidence indicates that prior to 80 AD, the defensive wall surrounding the town was reinforced, showcasing the strategic importance of Barikot during this time. This reinforcement likely corresponds to the broader geopolitical changes occurring in the region as these groups exerted their influence over Swat. | |||
