Karim Shahi region^[1] of the Rann of Kutch to the south of the Thar desert is an archeological site. The dating of pottery and charcoal remains found from the region using optically stimulated luminescence and radiocarbon methods revealed an active human settlement, which flourished from early Iron Age (between 1200 B.C. and 600 B.C) to early historic period (600 B.C. to 400 B.C.).^[2]^[3]
