Excerpt from Festivals and Folklore of Gilgit
The Gujars have recently come to these parts and speak the Same dialect as in India.
Besides these, there is another family of the former Muhammadan rulers of the country called Ra. They originally came from Skardu about three centuries ago, and professed to be the descendants of Alexander the Great. The inhabitants considered them to have been born of a fairy, and this idea leads the people to think that their rulers were of a superior race touching on the divine, and that therefore it was necessary to honour and obey them.
