R. HEINE-GELDERN, summing up the disappointment of two generations of students, wrote only a few years ago: \" W h e n SIR GEORGE SCOTT EOBERTSON m a d e h i s d a r i n g exped i tion into Kafiristan, in 1890—91, the population of that regiou consisted of fierce independent tribes, speaking archaic Indo-Aryan languages, adhering to their ancient pagan religion, using bows and arrows and erecting megalithic monuments to their dead. Today we know that the Kafirs were basically an early offshoot of the Vedic Aryans. One can hardly overestimate the amount of light which a thorough knowledge of Kafir culture might have thrown on the social and religious life of the ancient Aryans of India and Iran. Moreover, the Kafirs had a graded society, combined with degreetaking rites reminiscent of the 'feasts of merit' of^the Nagas and Kuki-Chin of Assam and of various Indonesian and Melanesian tribes. Was this a trait of ancient Indo-Aryan culture? In view of certain features of Vedic ritual this does not seem inconceivable. Or had these customs spread from the East along the Himalayas? Impossible to tell on the basis of the scant knowledge we possess. Finally, Kafir culture contained some traits which must have been adopted during the periods of the Greek, Parthian and Kushana kings of north western India. The country was a real anthropologists' paradise, but no anthropologist ever visited it until it was too late. A few years after Robertson's visit Kafiristan was conquered by the Afghans who forcibly converted the people to Islam. Later expeditions of Euro pean scholars were unable to recover more than fragments of the ancient cultural traditions.\"1) The grief over this \"lost paradise\" of anthropology was so deep that we all overlooked the fact that similar pagan beliefs and rites had to a considerable extent been preserved up to the present among","PeriodicalId":84346,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of the International Committee on Urgent Anthropological and Ethnological Research.
