Buula - The game of High Landers

Here, today I’m sharing some glimpses of the past and present of the adventurous and most popular galloping horse sport of Gilgit Baltistan — BUULA comonly known as polo. It may give an impression that this great adventurous sport, Polo, belongs to the British or some developed country since they have some of the greatest players. But no, it never belonged to them; it’s our own sport — a game of the highlanders of Central Asia. A game played by great rulers like Alexander the Great during his rule in Persia, the Persian rulers, and the Delhi Sultans. Historians say its origin dates back to the 6th century BC, but it may be much older than that. Initially, it was designed to train troops for war against enemies, but later people adopted it as a sport of leisure, and today it is an Olympic sport. In Gilgit-Baltistan, it has been the most favorite sport of the royal families and the general public of different regions prior to the amalgamation of Gilgit-Baltistan with Pakistan when there ...

The death celebration of the cannibal king , Shari Badat, generally known as Noce/Nasalo by Shina speakers of Gilgit and Lower Hunza, and as Tamashaling/Thumasaling by the Burusho of Hunza, Ghizer and Nagar valley is one of the most important festivals celebrated in Gilgit-Baltistan.

The warmth of the flames, coupled with the lively music and dancing, makes the villagers forget the chilly and freezing winter night, allowing them to immerse themselves in the celebration with...

Balbat/ Dan Phal

I hope my work will inspire our youth to uphold our own sports; otherwise, they will become nothing more than words on a piece of paper in history books. Balbat, a sport very similar to Stone Put, a traditional Scottish game, is one of the favorite sports of Gilgit-Baltistan men, played mostly in winter. The reason behind playing it in winter is to keep the body warm during the chilly cold days when the sun plays hide and seek with the valleys of GB. Unfortunately, we don’t have sports complexes; thus, men usually gather in an uncultivated field, a meadow, or a school ground to enjoy the game. A circle is drawn with the help of a stick, and the player stands at the midpoint of the circle holding a stone or rock in his hand. The player can use only one hand to bowl it. While exerting pressure, he cannot cross the border of the circle; if he does, he is declared disqualified. With the help of his hand, he releases the stone with all his power in the forward direction. The wi...
