(c) The Baharlt .—The Baharlu are of Turkish origin and uahurlu,
came to Persia and settled in Ears in the twelfth and thirteenth
centuries. They were originally migratory and had their
summer quarters in the districts of RUmj rd and Marvdasht and
their winter quarters near Sarvistfin and PSrab. They have
now for many years been sedentary and live on the banks of the
Darab river. They are said to number about 1,200 families.
The tribe is rich in horses and appears to have a rooted objec
tion to undertaking any journey or military operations on foot.
Until recently they were noted robbers, but in 1917 the Qawam
inflicted severe punishment on them and this has had a salutory
effect on them. They speak Turk’.
{(1) The Bdserl. —The Baserl believe themselves to be descen" Baseri.;
dants of the Basra Arabs. They speak a corrupt form of Arabic.
The tribe probably consists of 4,500 families, thouerh estimates
vary considerably. They are not ordinarily addictc .1 to robbery.
They own large numbers of transpoit animals which they ply
for hire. This is their chief source of livelihood and it is in all
probability on account of this that they do not migrate far.
With the exception of the Vaisi section their summer and winter
quarters are all within a radius of about 50 miles of Shiraz city
and close to the main caravan routes.
