Moghlot

The Moghlot were the ruling house of Nagar, the Burusho valley-state on the southern bank of the Hunza river, and took their name from the twin brother of Girkis, eponym of Hunza's older royal line. Burusho tradition makes Moghlot and Girkis sons of Mayroo Khan, the first Muslim thum of Nagar; their father divided his lands between them, and the Moghlot kept the southern bank, which became Nagar.

Nagar emerged as an autonomous state in the 1300s and was ruled by this family under the title thum, later mir. Its people held to Twelver Shi'ism even while neighbouring Hunza was pressed toward Sunnism, and the Moghlot line survived the wars that followed the fall of Trakhan Gilgit around 1810.
