NOTE 3.–The character of the nomad and semi-nomad tribes of Persia in
those days–Kurds, Lrs, Shls, Karaunahs, etc.–probably deserved all
that Polo says, and it is not changed now. Take as an example Rawlinson”s
account of the Bakhtyris of Luristn: ‘I believe them to be individually
brave, but of a cruel and savage character; they pursue their blood feuds
with the most inveterate and exterminating spirit…. It is proverbial in
Persia that the Bakhtiyaris have been compelled to forego altogether the
reading of the _Fatihah_ or prayer for the dead, for otherwise they would
have no other occupation. They are also most dextrous and notorious
thieves.’ (_J. R. G. S._ IX. 105.)
