Galashians

The Galashian society formed in the second half of 18th century[22] from the mountain Ingush that settled in lowlands between Assa and Fortanga rivers.

[9] As the letter of Muhammad Amin Asiyalav dating back to October 1848 states, the Naib of Vilayet Kalay (Galashkinskoe Naibstvo) was selected Muhammad-Mirza Anzorov, a Kabardian naib, who also at the time ruled Minor Chechnya as the district of Imamate: From the knowledgeable mudir, adherent of Islam Muhammadamin to his generous brothers and glorious friends, the valiant, zealous, brave inhabitants of Kalai and Arashdi – salam is constant.

[31] Chronology of major events: After the Russian Revolution of 1917, when the Cossack stripes that divided the Ingush societies were mostly eliminated, the official significance of territorial societies weakened, and soon after the formation of the Ingush Autonomous Oblast, it completely disappeared.

Nevertheless, for some time the Ingush who inhabited the foothill lands and especially the Galashkinsky District [ru], continued to be called Galashians.
