Talk:Shighnan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the 1911 Britannica Shighnan forms one entry with Roshan, and google leads me to the conclusion that these two are now probably integrated into the district of Shighnan; Marc Aurel Stein wrote "North of Shughnan lies Roshan, ruled usually be relatives of the old chiefs of Shughnan. Its language is Roshani, a dialect of Shughni. North, again, of Roshan lies Darwaz..." [1] and if I look at the map [2], I see Darwaz right above Shighnan.
