Ever since man entered Asia, through the Nile valley and the fertile Crescent, he crossed the deserts of the Near East, until he came to a barrier of mountains in the North. Some settled there, attracted by the fertile valleys, and in each valley isolated cultures emerged, and numerous different ethnic groups and races developed. These peoples who managed to survive in a hostile world, and who made the most of what nature offered them, are "THE HIMALAYAN DWELLERS".
