Agham Kot

Posted on Posted in Uncategorized

Agham Kot (Urdu: اگهم کوٹ ) or is located in Hyderabad District, Sindh, Pakistan.

It is also known as Agham. The Lohánas. Agham, or Agham-kot, lies about thirty miles south-east from Hyderabad, and though now almost forgotten, it was formerly a place of some consequence. Its position is not very easily identified, and the name is rarely introduced into the maps. In Lt. Burton’s it seems to be entered under the name of “Angoomanoo,” and in the Quartermaster-General’s map of 1850, under that of “Aghamama.”The Beg-Lar Náma says it is on the Rain. The Tuhfatu-l Kirám mentions it among the towns on the Sánkra. Capt. McMurdo says it is on the Lohána Daryá; but he strangely fixes its site at Kalákot, seven miles to the west of Thatta.
