Seraiki history

Seraiki history centers on the Seraiki-speaking people primarily in southern Punjab, Pakistan. It has roots in ancient civilizations like the Indus Valley, with influences from Persian, Arab, and Central Asian cultures through centuries of invasions and trade. The region developed its unique linguistic and cultural identity, especially during medieval times under various Muslim kingdoms and empires. In the 20th century, Seraiki activism emerged to recognize its language and cultural rights, fostering a sense of identity and regional pride. Today, Seraiki history reflects a rich blend of indigenous traditions and external influences shaping its distinct cultural landscape.
