Zamoran s i sauro 2005 obbedienza


Zamoran, (Balochi:زامران)also spelled Zamuran, is a community situated northwest of the Kech District of the Balochistan Province in Pakistan and southeast of the Sistan and Baluchestan Province in Iran. It was named after a leafy tree, the zamor, found in the area. Another possible origin of the name is from a combination of the two words zaa meaning abuse and miran meaning shall be killed or sacrificed. The meaning taken from that is that the people living in Zamoran would prefer to be killed rather than abused. The population and way of living is purely rural and tribal.
