The Kalash people, the tribe that inspired Kipling live their daily lives deep in the valleys of the Hindu Kush, the unforgiving mountain range at the border of Pakistan with Afghanistan.
Dhe grees didn’t exist in that period.
The greatest tribes of Ephrain, and Mannassah, became the Parthians, and the SCythians (the SC representing the ancient Hebrew word for isaac, thus, sons of Isaac). There is also a ritual restoring “purity” to a woman after childbirth which must be performed before a woman can return to her husband.

What makes them unique to most Pakistanis is the fact that many people in the tribe have blonde hair and blue eyes. Assyria. Most importantly, they produced wine much like the Greeks of antiquity did. They are also required to give birth in the bashaleni.
When I do that, not only am I ignoring the fact that majority of people use Einstein’s theory to teach and learn about physics.
Islamic extremism is not part of mainstream Islam now or historically. Understandably, most people prefer the 90-minute jeep ride from the trading centre of Chitral, just 32 kilometres north-east.
People who don’t know Islam, have not studied the Quran and who rely on tabloids and films for their so called knowledge of Islam are the most vocal about their hatred of it, I wonder why! Scholars, specifically sociologists, anthropologists and historians, as well as photographers, are particularly drawn to the Kalash, and many visit them each year. How they manage to survive is another. Kalash Valley is situated in District Chitral of province Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan.

Scholars, specifically sociologists, anthropologists and historians, as well as photographers, are particularly drawn to the Kalash, and many visit them each year.
Some historians believe that these people are the descendants of Alexander the Great.
