FESTVALS AND FOLKLORE OF GILGIT

by
GHULAM MUHAMMAD
Chief Glerk in the Political Office Gilgit, 1905

Ghulam Muhammad was an Indian official in the Political Agent’s Office in Gilgit in the beginning of the 20th Century. He was one of the earliest persons to study the people of Gilgit and its surroundings from anthropological point of view. The result of this study was a book named “FESTIVALS AND FOLKLORE OF GILGIT”. This book contains a lot of information on the folklore and history of Gilgit as well as its neighboring areas like Chitral. We hope the visitors of Mahraka.com will find it interesting and informative.
