Mountains of Hunza
Upper Hunza, privately called Gojal, is inhabited by individuals whose progenitors climbed from appropriate Hunza to water and guard the lines with China and Afghanistan. Because of their closeness and contact with these mountain networks, they speak a vernacular called Wakhi, which is impacted by Burushahski and Pamiri dialects. The Shina-talking individuals live in southern Hunza. They have come from Chilas, Gilgit, and other Shina-talking areas of Pakistan.
