Kalash – the lost tribe of Vedic India ?

This is more of a note rather than a post. I wasn’t even looking (or heard) for Kalash, but stumbled upon this when I was researching on ‘India connection’ of Romanis and Yezidis.

Now get this –  Kalash are the “smallest minority” of Pakistan – we all know what that means.

We have criminally low number of documentaries on Kalash community. Among the few posted, they just manage to touch the surface. Anyways, One of the good ones is linked below – please watch.

Few of things will immediately should catch your attention are :

• The worship of Vedic Gods (Indra and Mahadev) and not Classical Gods. This must indicate time-period of isolation from Indian civilization.
• Menstruating women are separated from community (Watch the documentary) and its a mandatory social vacation.
• Dead are buried above the ground. Crows represent ancestors

Let me know what you think :
