520    For roughly two thousand years, the veneration of sacred 
       fossil ammonites, called Shaligrams, has been an important
       part of Hindu and Buddhist ritual practice throughout 
       South Asia and among the global Diaspora. Originating from
       a single remote region of Himalayan Nepal, called Mustang,
       Shaligrams are all at once fossils, divine beings, and 
       intimate kin with families and worshippers. Through their 
       lives, movements, and materiality, Shaligrams then reveal 
       fascinating new dimensions of religious practice, 
       pilgrimage, and politics. But as social, environmental, 
       and national conflicts in the politically-contentious 
       region of Mustang continue to escalate, the geologic, 
       mythic, and religious movements of Shaligrams have come to
       act as parallels to the mobility of people through both 
       space and time. Shaligram mobility therefore traverses 
       through multiple social worlds, multiple religions, and 
       multiple nations revealing Shaligram practitioners as a 
       distinct, alternative, community struggling for a place in
       a world on the edge.
