Even the chroniclers of Alexander commented upon the fine wine made by this crowd.
Shame to see the dying of the light with these people, they were basically safe until early in the 20th century when Islamis first started their jihad against them.
According to locals, bin Laden lived with a Kalasha family in Chitral for some time during his first Afghan jihad, against the Soviet Union in the 1980s. With his now much more severe ideology, the al Qaida leader wouldn't be able to easily live among these polytheistic people, whose men and women mix freely.
Big Assumption!

How did this group manage to keep their tribal beliefs going if they didn’t have a nearly impenetrable defensible border?
