This city is the Capital Seat and headquarters of the Mazari Baloch tribe who have held this territory since 1632. Prior to this the Mazari Tribe were settled in the Bambore Hills of the present day Kohlu district in Balochistan. The city of Rojhan Mazari is spread over a large area and is connected by road and railway to Kashmore in the South West and Rajanpur in the North West. The Mazari Baloch tribal forces under the command of Sardar Karam Khan Baloch, the younger brother of the Mazari Chief Sardar Mir Bahram Khan attacked Mithankot, by then a strong Sikh garrison fortress.The garrison along with the city was completely burnt down by mazaris. All the prisoners taken by the Mazari tribesman were later skinned alive and burnt near the city. A few days later the Sikhs under the command of Kharak Singh retaliated and attacked the Mazari Stronghold of Rojhan but the Sikh army was defeated by the forces of Sardar Mir Bahram Khan Mazari and driven back towards Mithankot. The present city was constructed during the reign of the famous Mazari chief, Nawab Sir Imam Buksh Khan Mazari K.C.I.E. during the early and middle part of the 19th century. The word 'Rojhan' traces its roots back to the ancient Akkadian language of Babylon meaning the 'City of Tents'. The city is a site to many ancient yet beautiful buildings and tombs of the Mazari Nawabs and Sardars dating back to the 17th century. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rojhan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
