When the Piran tribe, who had been accustomed to go to the hills in summer, wanted to go back to their winter quarters, all their neighbors formed a league to prevent their return, and to divide their lands. Piran, with only 120 horsemen, passed through the defile through which the small Zab pierced Kara Rash's range, and found a force of 3,000 men waiting for them. The opposite sides of the Mangur and Mamesh tribes with 7000 people camped opposite each other for several days and sat and watched each other. A long-running theft of a favorite hound resulted in a battle in which the Piran, a tribe renowned for their bravery, won a virtually bloodless victory. [1]
