VI. The Genealogy of the Sra-sra-mun Chiefs of Śim-śa-mkhar-bu Castle,
according to the Tale of Śah-bān of Ki-no

The following account of Śim-śa-mkhar-bu and surrounding districts was dictated
to Phun-tshogs, my munshí, by a certain Śah-bān, of Dras, when I was on my tour
through Pu-rig in 1914. Śah-bān claims to be a descendant of the old line of Dard
chiefs who once resided at the castle of Śim-śa-mkhar-bu. He is now an old man,
and claims to be 98 years of age. When he began to tell his tale, there were several
other Dards present in the bungalow. But, when Śah-bān had finished the recital of
his pedigree, I noticed that all these Dards smiled and suddenly left the room. Next
morning I met two of them and asked what was the reason for that extraordinary
behaviour, whereupon they replied that they had felt disgusted with the old man's
lies. Then they told me that Śah-bān had represented himself in his pedigree as a
direct descendant of Sra-sra-mun in the male line, whereas he was only a descendant
from him in the female line. They then gave me some additional information about
Si-lim's daughter, Rāj-Si-kim, and her marriage to Śah-bān's father, Sa-lam. This
additional note is marked by brackets in the Tibetan text. They also added that
the proper name of the Balti king who once ruled over the district was Sher-'Alī-Khān.
This addition was also put in brackets.
As regards the size of the little principality, it may have comprised the valley
of the Dras River, above its confluence with the Shingo-Shigar River, including in its
best days the Dras Valley. The language of the whole district is Dard.
