This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1880 edition. Excerpt: ... SECTION FIRST. On The Baluchi Teibes Ov The Derah-jat. Before giving an account of the different darahs and passes in the Lower Derah-jat, leading into Baluchistan and Afghanistan from Multan, it will he well, perhaps, to say something ahout the Baluch tribes inhabiting the tracts on the west bank of the Indus within the Panjab frontier, who have given names to the derah of Isma'il Khan, the derah of Fath Khan, and the derah of Ghazi Khan. The Baluch people are mentioned very early in Muhammadan history. We read of them and the Brahuis in that valuable and celebrated work, "Masalik wa Mamalik," and in the "Kitab of Ibn-Haukal," under the names of Koch and Baluch. The terms "Koujes " and " Boloujes," which we find in Ouseley's translation of the latter work, are mis-spellings. Scribes, in writing the letters -(7-and, are generally, and with rare exceptions, not at all particular in putting the proper diacritical points, and rarely make a distinction between the two first, even if they do not leave out the points altogether. Some again, instead of putting three points to Jt, make a daub of them by writing the three without raising the reed from the paper, and make them seem like one point--, and then inexperienced persons jump at the conclusion that the letter is j instead of ch. Hence we have such blunders as " Jinjis" and "Jinghis" for the name of the Chingiz Khan, and "Ujah," "Oujah," "Ootch, ' and " Outch," for Uchchah and Uchchah, and many other names. The Koch and Baluch are referred to in the two works mentioned above as nomads, but the Afghans commonly use the word hochaey to signify a nomad in their language, and the former word, in the old Persian, signifies much the same. They are said to inhabit a territory of Iran...
