Hazarbuz
The Hazarbuz (Pashto: هزاربوز) are a Pashtun tribe who belong to sub-section of Mohmand son of Daulatyar son of GhoryaKhel. They primarily live in the Rodat district of Nangarhar, Kabul, Mazar e sharif, Herat, Peshawar, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Lahore, Karachi and Upper Mohmand Agency (FATA) in Pakistan and Afghanistan. Hazarbuz nomads have historically travelled the routes between eastern Afghanistan, Pakistan and Turkestan for centuries, a region related to the Silk Road, an ancient route between the East and the West of Asia. Traditionally, Hazarbuz were involved in transport activities with their camels, but from 1920s, they turned to trade. They shipped a variety of products from Afghanistan and Pakistan to the Indus lowland. Their key source of revenue has come from the import and sale of tea, particularly from Bukhara, in the northern regions of Afghanistan and Pakistan.[1][2][3] Hazarbuz were naturalized by Govt. of Pakistan in 2020. Now majority of them are settled in KP and Islamabad by owning their own properties.
