Stalin then deported the Greeks of Georgia en-masse to Central Asia in the 1920's. On the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1992, many came back. Facing yet more strife in modern day Georgia, many have recently moved back to Greece. 20 years ago there were 2500 Greeks in Dagva. Today there are 120. In Georgia they are known as "Rumka".

Many of their songs date back to the pre-Christian, pagan era. They are sung polyphonically, producing and effect so beautiful, powerful and moving that this photographer was reduced to tears.

Svaneti's traditions are perhaps the oldest and most traditional in Georgia due to the region's isolation. Svan harmonies are irregular and angular, and the middle voice leads the supporting vocals, all within a narrow range.

Svaneti has been famous for its mineral wealth for several thousand years, and the use of a sheep's fleece by gold panners is by no means unique to the Caucasus.

Even in vehicles with diplomatic plates, our safety here could not be guaranteed unless we were invited into the valley and escorted at all times by an eminent local family. The generous hospitality shown to visitors here is legendary, but finding out that Vachtang had an Uzi under the seat of his jeep did little to reassure us!

Like so many communities in these borderlands between Nepal and Tibet, the people of Chala are today having to cope with a new and stark economic reality. Gone are the once lucrative trading routes. Gone are the mutually beneficial arrangements whereby their hardy chiang-lu sheep were grazed during the winter in Tibet. Life here is certainly hard.

The Chinese authorities proscribed this trade when they occupied Tibet, and since then the entire Humla region has become impoverished and food deficient. The annual mela (trade fair) at Yalbang is now receding into the memories of the elders.

In early November everyone moves back down into the valley for the winter, leaving the houses empty and unlocked.

Canon EOS500, 28mm, Fuji Velvia https://cdn.neonsky.app/4bd5ebf1d852d/images/loading_up.jpg Rice Traders, Humla While the deep valley floor is still in the grip of the overnight freeze, these caravan-drivers load up their mules and set off on their day's march towards Tibet. Humla has never been able to grow sufficient grain to feed its population, and traditionally relied on trans-Himalayan trade to make up the deficit. Rice and barley are taken to Tibet and exchanged for salt, which is then caried back to the lowlands. The difference in the exchange rates for the two commodities at either end of this long and arduous trade route enables the participants to add considerably to their family's stores of grain at home. Canon EOS500, 28mm, Fuji Velvia https://cdn.neonsky.app/4bd5ebf1d852d/images/goatman.jpg Rice Trader, Humla The trails in Humla are often so steep, and the hillsides traversed so precipitous, that even sure footed mules are unable to negotiate them. Thus, in Humla you may still witness the bizarre sight of caravans of laden sheep and goats winding their way through the hills. Each carries a small set of panniers, and their load is called a lukal.
