  • Chapter 2 Contracting Nomadic Carriage for an Aquatic Agenda
    Connecting Histories in Afghanistan Shah Mahmoud Hanifi Chapter 2 Contracting Nomadic Carriage for an Aquatic Agenda Sayyid Muhin Shah and the Validation of Market Profitability Sayyid Muhin Shah became a nomadic trader in response to unfavorable political conditions 1 in his home village near Qandahar. He met Arthur Conolly in Herat and the two traveled to Delhi where Muhin Shah impressed the Governor General and Viceroy of India, and other high-ranking colonial officials. Muhin Shah was immediately contracted to perform a series of commercial experiments for the British that validated the profitability of exporting Indian and European goods to Afghanistan and Central Asia.1 Muhin Shah came from a family of Sayyids, or descendants of the Prophet Muhammad, who 2 resided in Peshin, a village about twenty miles north of Quetta on the road to Qandahar. The Sayyids' social status carried economic and political benefits. In nineteenth-century Afghanistan and elsewhere in the Muslim world, sayyids, saints, and sufis received monetary offerings from ordinary people and political elites in return for a variety of blessings, consultations, and ritual performances. For example, during his aborted attempt to reclaim the Durrani throne in 1833, Shuja borrowed Rs. 2,000 from a merchant in Sind to use as monetary "blessings" to the Peshin Sayyids as he advanced to Qandahar through their village.2 But, more important, their Sayyid status gave them access to an interregional network of Muslim merchants. The Peshin Sayyids used their piety, capital, and network connections to become significant actors in the horse and slave trades through Qandahar and Quetta and prominent landholders in Peshin, as the following quotes reveal: The Syads of Peshin and other small traders carry on the traffic in human beings in Western Afghanistan, and some 400 or 500 are annually disposed of in Kandahar alone.

  • Saving Minarets at Risk in Afghanistan
    Structural Analysis of Historical Constructions - Modena, Lourenço & Roca (eds) © 2005 Taylor & Francis Group, London, ISBN 04 15363799 Saving minarets at risk in Afghanistan G. Macchi Deparlmenl ofSiruclural Mechanics, University of Pavia, Ifa/y ABSTRACT: The minaret of Jam is now included in the World Heritage List. Such an outstanding tower built in the 12th century A.D., 65 m high and isolated in the mountains at the altitude of 1900 m, has exceptional value from the architectural and historical points of view. The author, on behalf ofUNESCO, undertook investigations intended to assess the structural stability of the tower, including static and dynamic verifications. The study ofthe seismic hazard of Iam was the occasion to reconsider a catalogue of 1300 seismic events which reconfirm the high seismic risk of the city of Herat, where another set of important archaeological remains is also under the highest attention of UNESCO. fNTRODUCTION The reasons of the dramatic loss of the architectural heritage in Afghanistan are not only earthquakes, but also destructions due to war. The minarets to be saved are a fundamental testi­ mony of the ancient roots of such unhappy people. Adding the minaret of Iam to the World Heritage List UNESCO is working for the preservation of such memories and for the civic and cultural reconstruc­ tion ofthe Country. The safeguard ofthe five minarets remained in Herat is part ofthe same project. The knowledge of the Afghan civilization dates back to the end of the second millennium B.C. when Figure I. Herat.

  • THE NEW YEAR's FESTIVALS and the SHRINE OF'ali IIIN By
    THE NEW YEAR'S FESTIVALS AND THE SHRINE OF'ALI IIIN ABI TALIB AT MAZAR-I SHARIF, AFGHANISTAN by Jonathan Leonard Lee 0-- Submitted in accordancewith ilic requirementsfor the degreeof PliD The University of Leeds Department of Theology and Religious Studies September1999 The candidate confirms that the work,submitted is his osviiand that appropriate credit has been given where referencehas been made to the svork-of olhers. ii ABSTRACT This study examines the customs and origins of three spring festivals at the shrine of 'Ali b. Abi Talib, Mazar-i Sharif, Afghanistan; namely Nauroz, Janda Bala and Gul-i Surkh. Since these festivals are not part of the Islamic religious calendar, we seek to locate their origins in the pre-Islamic religions of Iran and record the contemporary traditions of these festivals. Since the festivals are assimilated to a shrine dedicated to the fourth Caliph of Sunni Islam, we examine the processes which gave rise to this juxtaposition and how it came about that this shrine came to be considered a rival to Najaf. The Sa1juq and Timurid discovery narratives are examined (Chapters 1-2) in their wider religious and cultural context, followed by an examination of Afghan folklore re- lated to Nauroz and the pre-Islamic religious traditions of Bactria (Chapters 3-4). We con- clude that an important impetus for the founding of this shrine is the fact that, until the arrival of Islam, Bactra had been the paramount pilgrimage and cult centre of the region. Over the millennia, whilst the dominant religious tradition had changed, Bactra adapted to such ideological fluctuations in order to maintain its dominance of the.

  • Afghanistan: Navigating Between Enemies and Restrecive Forces
    13. Afghanistan: Navigating between enemies and restrictive forces Abdul Mujeeb Khalvatgar Media in Afghanistan have had their successes and failures since the overthrow of the Taliban regime in the late months of 2001. We have seen progress, but now we are also in danger of slipping back from the achievements we have made. More than 100 national and international journalists and media workers have lost their lives in Afghanistan since 2001 and more than 1,300 cases of violence, against media and freedom of expression, have been reported since 2001. On the other hand, when one compares Afghan media with those of neighbouring countries, Afghanistan has the most independent and free media situation in the region. There are 483 operational media outlets, including 96 TV stations, 190 radio stations, and 197 newspapers across the country. If we rely on the facts published by the Afghanistan Media Directory (Nai, 2017), about 12,000 journalists and media workers are involved in the Afghan media sector. Out of this, in accordance with Center for Protection of Afghan Women Journalists (CPAWJ)1, approximately 18-20 per cent are women. The new era of media development in Afghanistan is short, less than Abdul Mujeeb Khalvatgar has studied two decades. Despite this fact, the media have developed magically political science and international in this period.

  • Bygone Geography I: Forgotten Cities
    Bygone Geography I: Forgotten Cities June 8, 2020 Category: History Download as PDF Generally speaking, collective memory is formed according to any given community’s (desired) legacy. As might be expected, this does not necessarily correspond to what really happened. If something–be it a person, an event, or the existence of an entire metropolis–does not play a key role in the favored historical narrative, it will eventually be discarded as time goes by. This is especially the case when it comes to sacred histories and national origin stories. False memory is either a matter of remembering things that never actually happened (the Mandela Effect) or omitting things that actually happened (selective forgetting). While the former are fascinating (mythical cities that are likely figments of people’s imaginations), the latter will be addressed in the present piece. The erasure of historical facts can be illustrated by major cities that no longer exist: neither in fact NOR in the minds of those who are now living. This is not to be confused with FICTIONAL cities that, it is supposed, no longer exist–as with, say, the Edenic “Arcadia” in Greek legend; or “Camelot” in English legend. Note, for example, what was posited in Judaic lore as the first city: that of Enoch in the land of Nod…which likely corresponded to a Sumerian or Assyrian city in Chaldea (perhaps Ur.) Sanctified folklore is a funny thing, and often involves as much confabulation as obfuscation–a fact of which we are reminded every time we hear tales of the lost city of Atlantis…or of El Dorado.

    Herat from the 10th to the 14th Century Ute Franke Political Background – A Summary1 The toppling of the Umayyads and the subsequent shift of power towards the east deeply affected the region. Abu Muslim, a protagonist and major military The history of Herat during the first decades of the figure in the Abbasid movement, established his centre in Merv in 747, Islamic era is still rather poorly known. After the soon after his emissaries had driven the representative of the last Umayyad capitulation of Zaranj in 642, Sistan became the governor out of Herat. Due to his conciliatory politics, Abu Muslim received springboard for the Arab armies to move into India strong support throughout Khorasan, also from Shiites, Sunnis, Zoroastrians, and Khorasan, at first bypassing Herat.2 The city Jews, and Christians. His murder in 755 during a visit to the caliph al-Mansur surrendered in 651/52 CE and a peace treaty was in al-Mada’in fostered major upheavals and led to intermittent rules by drawn for Herat, Badghis, and Bushanj.
