Supposed tomb of Ham
In the first century, Romano-Jewish historian Josephus asserted that Ham (son of Noah) and his descendants had populated parts of Asia. In 1891, Hāfiz Shams ad-Dīn of Gulyana claimed that he had a dream in which he was informed the location of Ham's grave, who died at the age of 536. He subsequently established the present tomb in Gharibwal which is 78-foot long. However, many historians have dismissed this as mere rumour and unsupported.[1][2]
