(Charles C. Trench, “The Frontier Scouts, p284) Another tradition holds that Makhad may be localized form of “Mashhad” (Arabic) which literally means having lots of graves and mausoleums and in fact, Makhad has plenty of them. Ancient Makhad was located on a hill named “Makhad Ser” which is on the western side of river Indus in front of the present day location on the other side (Eastern) of river Indus. The ruins of the old city still exist and are known as “Zara Makhad” which means old Makhad. During the British era a steamer by the name of “Indus Flotila” used to carry goods and cargo between Rohri (Sindh) and Makhad. This mode of transportation was later replaced by the arrival of Railways. In 1881. Most of the population comprised of Pirachas, Saghri Khattaks, Bangi Khels, Awans and Niazis. Most Pirachas have left in search of better prospects to big cities. Their houses and mansions built with a unique artistic architecture, displaying exquisite stone and wood craftsmanship, are locked and are in a dilapidated condition. Once a thriving trade and commerce center, this ancient town has lost its importance and significance. The construction of houses in Makhad is haphazard with varying heights. Most of the houses have double stories and the streets have only closed walls. Uneven earthen stairs lead to the second floor usually from outside the house. Most of the houses are made with bricks (In fact only one house was built with bricks known as 'Mari' and the ones living in that house were known as 'Mari wale', however all the rest of the houses were built of stones) Veranda pillars, windows, doors and balconies are all decorated with impressive wood carving. The houses close to river are uneven and disorderly. The foundation of the houses is laid with stones and lime stones in the sandy hill between 20 to 40 feet above the river water level. In 1837 and 1858 floods the river water drowned some houses as it rose quite high. The market of Makhad is just four feet wide and slantingly passes through the town. A road along the east side of the town goes down south through the Makhad Nala and reaches the jetty of the Indus Flotila. This jetty is about 300 feet long and 8 feet wide and starts at the confluence of Makhad Nala and river Indus and stretches to the banyan tree near the water surface. There are three famous and highly revered shrines here that the names of Mian Molvi, Shah Muhammad Ghous and Pir Adil Shah. Fenugreek (methi) of Makhad is very popular, rather the town became famous for such excellent variety of Fenugreek. This 'methi' finds its way to the markets of Peshawar and Kabul as well.
