Ganweriwal (3000–1500 BC) was one of the largest cities in the Indus Valley civilisation, located in the Cholistan Desert of Punjab, Pakistan [1]. The site was rediscovered in the 1970s by archaeologist Mohammad Rafique Mughal but remains unexcavated [1]. Surface surveys have revealed mudbrick walls, unicorn figurines, a copper seal and an impressed clay tablet—artifacts paralleling those found at major Indus cities like Mohenjo-daro and Harappa [1]. The site faces threats from agricultural development and a road cutting through its center [1].
