the belief of many Kashmiris that they were one of the "Lost Tribes" of Israel.

ONE of the lost tribes? How many lost tribes are there?

I believe that there are ten lost tribes. Or 10 1/2. All of the tribes of the northern kingdom that were exiled by the Assyrians. Judah and I think half of Benjamin was exiled a century or so later by the Persians, but were allowed to return (Ezra and Nehemiah in the Bible tell about the exiles return). Don't remember the exact details about the 1/2 tribe. I'm sure someone here knows a lot more about it than I do.
