Gojal
Gojal is an area north of Gilgit in the far north of Pakistan near the borders with China and Afghanistan. It is the largest tehsil of the Gilgit-Baltistan area of northern Pakistan. Gojal is a series of small and large valleys sharing borders with Hunza in the south, China in the north-east and Afghanistan in the north-west. Shishkat is the first village of Gojal. Except for the Shimshal, Misgar and Chipursan valleys, all the villages of Gojal can be seen from the Karakorum Highway (KKH), which crosses Gojal, entering China at the Khunjerab Pass. == History ==
The valleys and villages of Gojal were settled over time by people from surrounding regions. In the opinion of most researchers , Kirghiz nomads initially used the areas in upper Gojal as winter pastures. It is said that later on when Wakhies migrated from Wakhan to this region, the Kirghiz nomads left. It is very difficult to determine when the Wakhies settled in Gojal. However, it is narrated that the earlier Wakhi migrated from Wakhan and settled in the Yishkuk (Chipursun) valley and later the Boiber areas. It is also narrated that when Hunza was under the Central Government of Gilgit the Ishkook settlement was wealthy and paid cattle and other dairy products to the Raja of Gilgit. As Hunza emerged as an independent state during the early 15th century so it can be inferred that different valleys in upper Gojal were inhabited by the Wakhi speaking migrants prior to the emergence of the Hunza state. Later, the oral history holds, a catastrophic flood destroyed the Ishkook settlement during the 18th century. Since 2010, parts of the valley have been inundated by the 27 km long Attabad Lake.
