and now all that remains of them are a few robbers, who wander
about plundering every one that come in their way.
(5) Inanlu, brought over from Turkestan by Chingiz Khan. They
used to spent the summer in the buluks of Ramjird and Marv-
dasht, and the winter in those of Khafr, Darab, andFasa. They
plundered on the high road of Fa s, Kirman, and Yazd until
1877, when the tribe was severly punished by Nesred Din Shah.
After this the Inanlu became a sedentary tribe inhabiting
the plain of Fasa. They number 5,000 families and are sub
divided into the following tirehs :—Abul Verdi (they were the
chiefs of the whole tribes of Khamseh), Islamlu, Afshar-Uchagi,
Amir-Haji, Iranshahi, Bulaqi, Bayat, Chahardeh-Charik, Chian,
Daubaglu, Dahu, Dindarlu, Rais-Beglu, Zarind Quli, Zangineh,
Suruglu, Sakkareh, Qurtbaglu, Qurt, Qaragara, Chaglu,
Kurrai, Kurkbar, Mahmudbeglu, Yaqirmarlu.

to the Qavam family.
Military qualifications .—The Khamseh, united probably 'or the first
time in history when they came to the assistance of the Qavamis against
Saulat-ud-Dauleh, certainty raised quite 3,000 well-armed men, who showed
greater spirit and determination than the Qashqai, upon whom they inflicted
heavy losses and a severe defeat. Under the most favourable circum
stances they might put 4,000 men into the field, but not more. The
tribesmen are not fully under the control of the r own chiefs, and would
seldom fail to be a source of acute anxiety to the commander of any
army to whose assistance they saw fit to come.
The tribes, as a whole, are probably as well armed as the Qashqais, but
seem to possess a greater variety of rifles, in contrast to the latter, whose
rifles are for the most part Mausers. The tribe has hitherto, however,
never been sufficiently united to be ab'e to undertake any concerted action,
whether against the Persian Government or a rival tribe ; and to this fact,
in a large measure, must be ascribed the recent increase of Qashqai
influence in Fars.— (Rabino, culled from Demorgny’s “ Reforms Adminis-
tratives en Perse, 1913,” and Wilson, 1916).
