for summer and winter ; visiting for pasturage localities north of the Atrak
River as far as Balkan in one direction, and m the other eastwards as far as
Kara Kala, which is about 112 miles from Bupmrd. They are called
Charvas in contradistinction to the settled tribes of Yamuts who dwell m
fixed camps. These latter are called Chumurs. The Charvas keep more to
the north^towards the Atak. 'For a considerable part of the year, they
are away in the Balkan and Misrian districts, and some of their camps
move onto near Kizil Arvat and the Akhal country ; but they all return
during the harvest season to the Atak and Gurgan districts for the pur
pose of reaping and storing their gram.
The Charvas remaining in or visiting Persian territory are estimated to
be about 2,400 families.
