About This Book

Das Bergvolk der Nagerkuts lebt am Fuße des ?Feenberges? Rakaposhi im Karakorum-Gebirge im Norden Pakistans. Diese ethno-historische Studie dokumentiert die mythischen Überlieferungen, Traditionen und die bislang nur mündlich überlieferte Geschichte dieses Volkes. Bis 1972 war Nager eines der letzten Sakral Königreiche der Welt, das seine Bewohner: innen wegen seiner Fruchtbarkeit stolz als das ?Land von Gold und Aprikosen? bezeichnen. Die langjährigen Feldforschungen des Autors in diesem entlegenen Teil Nordpakistans gewahren Einblicke in die Lebenswelt der Nagerkuts, ihre bäuerliche Kultur sowie die Riten ihrer indigenen, prä-modernen Religion.
