The story of the Khyber Pass, the narrow mountain route which - more than any other single place on earth - has shaped civilisations.
Thirty miles long, and in places no more than sixteen metres wide, the Pass is the only natural cutting through the great mountains of the Hindu Kush - and hence the one feasible route from Central Asia into India.
