Summary

Si las montañas se alzan al sur y los ríos corren hacia el norte…, entonces esto es la Val d'Aran. Situado tras el cordón montañoso que forman algunos de los picos emblemáticos de los Pirineos, como los Besiberris, el Tuc de Mulleres o el circo de Colomèrs, la Val d'Aran dormita plácidamente en la cara norte de la cordillera. Es un territorio de fuerte personalidad, el único valle del Pirineo catalán que mira al Atlántico, mientras por el rabillo del ojo otea el Mediterráneo desde el túnel de Vielha. Sus bosques, cumbres y lagos, son el objetivo de las rutas de esta guía.
La mayoría de los núcleos de población del Aran se alojan a orillas del río Garona, que recorre el valle de este a oeste y forma la auténtica columna vertebral de este territorio. Pero en este valle también abundan las villas encaramadas a las alturas, ya que el 30% de superficie aranesa está situada por encima de los 2000 metros. De hecho, la Val d'Aran es de los primeros en vestirse de blanco cuando, en pleno otoño, las nevadas comienzan a perfilar las cumbres pirenaicas. Es buena época para salir de excursión, pues las nevadas tempranas coinciden con la explosión de color los bosques, un espectáculo que ilumina el valle con infinidad de tonalidades.

    The Rashtrakutas were one of the most powerful dynasties in Indian history, ruling vast territories across the Deccan and beyond. Their origins, however, remain a subject of debate among historians due to conflicting inscriptions and interpretations. Some sources trace their roots to the Kannada-speaking regions, while others suggest connections to northern India. Despite the uncertainty, it is widely accepted that the Rashtrakutas emerged as a prominent force in the Deccan by the 8th century. 
    The dynasty first gained prominence under the rule of Dantidurga, who established Rashtrakuta authority by overthrowing the Chalukyas of Badami. However, evidence suggests that the Rashtrakutas had been a significant regional power even before his reign. The earliest references to the name "Rashtrakuta" appear in inscriptions from the 6th and 7th centuries, indicating that they were already influential feudatories before rising to imperial status. Some scholars believe they originally served as administrators or military governors under the Chalukyas before asserting their independence. 
    The question of the dynasty’s ethnic and linguistic identity has long been debated. Some sources claim that they were of Kannada origin, citing inscriptions and literary works composed in the Kannada language under their patronage. Others argue that they may have had northern Indian roots, pointing to their interactions with Rajput and Gurjara clans. Regardless of their precise origins, the Rashtrakutas embraced the cultural diversity of the Deccan, ruling over a population that spoke multiple languages, including Kannada, Sanskrit, and Marathi.
