A fertile valley in Luristan, south of the Kaleh Kuh range, and situated
on the Kakulistan, or Basnui branch of the Ab-i-Diz. It is inhabittd by
the Zallaki section of the Bakhtiari tribe, and is a remarkably pretty and
well cared for spot. A stone fort in the middle of an open space, 1 mile
in extent along one of the bends of the rivers, and pushing its way up two
well-wooded ravines lying close together, is surrounded by a number of flat
terraces, each large enough to contain an llidt family or small group, and
each separated by a screen of fruit and other trees, giving shelter from
wind and sun. These rows and cross-rows of trees, in which fig, pome
granate, walnut, and poplar are seen, all stand by small rivulets of their
own, and give the whole valley a remarkably well-cared for appearance. It
