Kala Chitta Range

The 2248th highest mountain range in the world

841m

Kala Chitta Range (Urdu, Punjabi) is a mountain range in the Attock District of Punjab, Pakistan. The range thrusts eastward across the Pothohar Plateau towards Rawalpindi. "Kala" and "Chitta" are Punjabi words, meaning "black" and "white", respectively. The Kuldana Formation in the Kala Chitta Range is best known for its fossil Eocene mammals, including primitive cetaceans such as Pakicetus, Ambulocetus and Attockicetus. Kuldana mammals have been considered in different studies as coming from the early Lutetian (early Middle Eocene), late Ypresian (late early Eocene) or, more recently, encompassing much of Ypresian up to early Lutetian time (early part of the early Eocene to early Eocene medium).

Location: Pakistan.
