Plurality of sources and interdisciplinary approach: A case study of Sehwan Sharif in SindhMaison de l'Asie, Grand Salon (1st floor), 22 avenue du Président Wilson, 75016 Paris&#160;As part of activity of the research team “History and Sufism in the Indus Valley” (CEIAS), led by Michel Boivin, a workshop will be held on 27 January 2009 at the EHESS in Paris. Several members of this team will focus on how to integrate the plurality of sources in comparison with the interdisciplinary approach of a Sufi pilgrimage, that of Sehwan Sharif located in the region of Sindh in Southern Pakistan. Beginning on the work of the French Archaeological Mission in Sindh (1989-2002), different sets of research materials will be presented by the speakers: epigraphical sources, colonial archives, cartographic representations, vernacular sources, etc. If the primary objective of this workshop is to make an inventory of sources and materials collected, and eventually to compose a typology by disciplines, it also aims at multiplying angles of approach to a specific site, between local history and regional history. At the end of the day, a brief account of the field mission in October 2008 will be presented and commented, as well as various parallel projects around issues of data management and sharing (archiving and cataloging, GIS, website).Programme9h30: Opening remarks by Michel Boivin, CNRSMorning sessionChair: Véronique Bouiller (CNRS)10h-10h30: Monique Kervran (CNRS), The archaeology of Sindh and Sehwan Sharif: the work of the French Archaeological Mission in Sindh 10h30-11h: Annabelle Collinet (Louvre Museum), Sehwan Sharif through the study of ceramics: 2nd-8th until 11th-17th centuries Coffee break11h15-11h45: Claude Markovits (CNRS), Sindh through colonial archives 11h45-12h15: Reza Dehghan (University of Aix-Marseille), Sindh and commercial trade between India and BaghdadAfternoon session[caption id="attachment_133" align="alignright" width="216" caption="Archives at the Mukhtyarkar office in Sehwan"][/caption] Chair: Christophe Z.
