"Pashtun is not merely a race but, in fact, a state of mind; there is a Pashtun lying inside every man, who at times wakes up and overpowers him."--Ghani Khan

The KHATTAKS

The Khattak (Pashto: خټک‎ [xaˈʈak], Urdu: خٹک‎), or Khatak, is a Pashtun tribe, which speaks a variant of the softer Kandahari Pashto. The Khattaks are settled along the western bank of the Indus River from as north upwards as Lund Khwar,Katlang,Sawal dher, Sher Garh and near Malakand, Nowshera District & Karak District. Across the Durand line, a smaller number of Khattaks are scattered inKandahar, Ghazni, Logar and Khost in Afghanistan. The historic capital of the Khattaks is Akora Khattak, a town 50 kilometres (31 mi) east of the provincial capital, Peshawar.

A warrior poet by the name of Khushal Khan Khattak (1613–1690) belonged to this tribe, and his contributions to Pashto literature are considered as classic texts. They have been translated into numerous languages. The Khattaks have high literacy rates in comparison to other Pashtun tribes having achieved positions of influence throughout history.
