HDH-VKD-8 | Jaadi, mound

Little is known about a site referred to as Jaadi (Golden Tomb). I interviewed a number of older people regarding historical sites on the island, including my grandfather Mohammed Hussain (86 at the time of the survey) and Ali Hussain (102 at the time of the survey). Although I was not able to find out where jaadi is located, it may have been a place where people buried pre-Islamic artefacts and manuscripts after converting to Islam.
