Amri culture

The Amri culture flourished in the 4th and 3rd millennium BC in Balochistan and Sindh ( Pakistan ). The culture is named after the location of the same name Amri in the Indus Valley .

The prehistory of these regions has hardly been researched to this day and is shaped by different cultures that differ based on their ceramic styles . The Amri culture seems to have preceded the Indus culture in various places . It has some similarities with the Nal culture , whereby the Nal culture is more widespread in the mountains of Balochistan and the Amri culture in the Indus valley.

The Amri ceramic is light with a cream colored coating. The ceramic is decorated with geometric patterns, mostly in red and blue. Copper was known.
