The City of Sirkap | Taxila
The city of #Sirkap, #Taxila
In the annals of antiquity, amidst the rugged terrain along Khanpur Road, lies the storied city of Sirkap, a mere stone's throw from the revered Taxila Museum. Its very name, steeped in the folklore of North India, harks back to the legendary exploits of Raja Rasalu, who purportedly felled a demon bearing the same moniker, in the ancient realm of Sakala, now known as Sialkot.
Founded around 180 B.C., Sirkap emerged as a testament to the ambition of successive rulers of the Greco-Bactrian domain, rising from the dust to embody the Hellenic spirit. Its streets, meticulously laid out in a grid pattern upon the level ground, whisper tales of urban planning inherited from its Greek forebears.
The city's architecture, predominantly fashioned from coarse stone, bore witness to the ebb and flow of civilizations. Temples, palaces, shrines, and stupas adorned its thoroughfares, testifying to the diverse religious and cultural tapestry that once flourished within its confines.
Notable among its architectural marvels were the shrine of the Double-Headed Eagle, the stately Apsidal temple, and a majestic palace gracing the southern edge of the main thoroughfare. Each edifice bore witness to the craftsmanship and ingenuity of its builders, standing as enduring monuments to a bygone era.
Through the passage of time, Sirkap witnessed the rise and fall of empires, as it passed from the hands of Greeks to Scythians, Parthians, and ultimately, the Kushans. Yet, despite the shifting sands of dynastic power, Sirkap remained a bastion of cultural exchange and flourishing civilization.
However, as the Kushan dynasty ascended, a new city, Sirsukh, emerged nearby, casting a shadow over Sirkap's once-illustrious prominence. With the advent of Sirsukh, Sirkap gradually faded into obscurity, its former glory eclipsed by the march of time and the inexorable tide of history.
Today, Sirkap stands as a testament to the transience of human endeavor, its ruins echoing with the whispers of a bygone era, where the grandeur of empires rose and fell like the shifting sands of the desert.

یوسفزئی قبائل کے سردار ملک احمد کے گجو خان سردار بنے دلزاک کرلانی قبائل کے اس علاقے سے نکل جانے کے بعد یہی سردار تھے شیر شاہ سوری کے زمانے میں گجو خان کے ماتحت تقریباً ایک لاکھ کے لگ بھگ قبائل کی فوج تھی۔۔ دلزاک قبائل اس وقت دریائے سندھ کے جنوب میں آباد تھے چھچھ پشاور میں انکی اس وقت تک قبائلی حثیت موجود تھی ۔ یوسفزئی قبائل مرزا الغ بیگ کے زمانے میں جب وہ کابل کا حکمران تھا اس وقت دلزاک قبائل سے جگہ مانگ کر دوآبہ کے علاقے میں آباد ہوئے۔۔ اور میں بعد ایک تاریخی احسان فراموشی کی مثال قائم کرتے ہوئے انہی اپنے محسن دلزاک افغانوں کے خلاف 9 قبائل خشی قبائل کے اتحاد سے جنگ کاٹلنگ کی اور اس علاقے سے بے دخل کر دیا۔۔۔ یوسفزئی قبائل کی ایسی احسان فراموشی کی مثال افغان قوم میں کیا دنیا میں مشکل ملتی ہے۔ ۔۔۔ 😢😢😢😢
