The author exerted himself in explaining the close links of such a type of economy and geographic and climatic characteristics of the region, accompanied by a short historical relation. It should be pointed out that the cattle-breeding and the economy, described inarticle, refer to a rather near past, respectively to that level of the past to which the field researches could arrive.
