CENTER FOR ART AND ARCHAEOLOGY 
Kos Minars or distance pillars were raised to mark the distance travelled; the minars (pillars) were placed at intervals of a kos (a distance of approximately 4.17 km). These are plastered brick structures standing on square platform. Each minar soars from a tapering octagonal base which is separated from the upper circulatory portion by a molding. This kos minar survives in a good condition on the 17th century Agra - Lahore road between Nakodar and Mahlian Kalan.
