Caption: "Mullik Ensal. The Yaga Kheyl, to which the subject of the photograph belongs, is a clan of the Wuzeerees, a frontier tribe of the Derajat, a province lying south of Kohat. They are for the most part a pastoral people. In the hot summer months they retire with their cattle to the mountains, inhabiting tracts varying from 4,000 to 10,000 feet above the sea. In the winter they descend into the Derajat, and the plains become dotted with their herds and flocks, and with their black blanket tŠµnts pitched in groups like villages, and moved from place to place according to their necessities for forage and water."
