Exploring the complex cosmology of the remote tribes along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border, this work delves into their traditional religions, which blend ancient Indo-Aryan and pre-Vedic beliefs with later Islamic practices. Despite conversion to Islam by the early 20th century, these tribes maintain unique religious customs due to their conservative and isolated nature. The author, an esteemed Austrian anthropologist, combines extensive field research with diverse scholarly insights, creating an essential resource for both general readers and specialists in Asian tribal cultures.
