    had the honour of reading a paper before the Institute on " Anthropological Notes on Southern Persia."'In it I referred to the gypsies of Persia, and attached a vocabulary of about one hundred words, on which Mr. Longworth Dames wrote an interesting note.In 1904, the eminent Orientalist, M. de Goeje, was kind enough to write to me on the subject and to enclose a copy of his recently written MJmoire sur les migrations des Tls'ganes a travers l'Asi…

    I am afraid I did not make myself quite clear about the question of the longheaded people in the Balkans.I had to mention them, and the thing would have borne considerable expansion; but the difficulty which Dr. Evans feels, and we all feel, is this: How is it that you have a well-marked and very persistent patch -we do not know that it is more than a patch-of long-headed people among the Bosnian tombs at a period so very much later than that at …

Before, however, approaching their history, it seems advisable to recapitulate the physical featuresof these desert provinces, which, aselsewhere, have mainly owed their history to their geographical conditions

  • The geography of Southern Persia as affecting its history

    P Molesworth Sykes, Percy SykesARTICLEScottish Geographical Magazine1902

    SOUTHERN Persia and Baluchistan lie between the rich alluvial plains and ancient civilisations.of the Euphrates, Tigris, and Karun on the west, and that of the Tndus on the east.To the south, the land of Iran is washed by the Persian Gulf, which runs from NW. to SE., and is a most interesting body of water.Though proofs are still wanting, it is quite within the range of possibility that the art of navigation sprang into existence in this gulf, an…
