**If asking for a telephone or cooker in the remote Kalash valley of Rumbur or Bumburate the local people lead you to someones house; take it easy as Kalash people have been naming their children after household items since long.**The people of primitive culture and civilisation living in the segregated valleys in south of Chitral share strange habits and ways in their daily life and naming their babies is one of them. Qudratullah, a development worker in the valley, said that names of many people in the area were humourous in nature and there had been no hard and fast rules to name a child.He said that in some cases, the Kalash had been named after the kitchen utensils like balti, glass, cooker etc. He observed that the Kalash people were fond of naming their children after new things` such as telephone and computer.
