Altit Fort in is an ancient fort at Altit town in the Hunza valley in Gilgit Baltistan, Pakistan. It was originally home to the
hereditary rulers of the Hunza state who carried the title Mir, although they moved to the somewhat younger Baltit fort nearby
three centuries later. Altit Fort and in particular the Shikari tower is around 1100 years old which makes it the oldest monument
in the Gilgit-Baltistan.ln the past several small independent states formed part of the history of the Northern Areas of Pakistan.
Among them Hunza and Nager were traditional rival states, situated on opposite sides of the Hunza (Kanjut) river. The rulers of
these two states, Mirs known as Thum (also Tham, Thom or Thåmo), built various strongholds to consolidate their power.
According to historical sources,[2] the Hunza rulers initially resided in nearby Altit Fort, but after a conflict between the two
sons of the ruler Sultan, Shah Abbas (Shdboos) and Ali Khan (Aliqhdn), Shaboos moved to Baltit Fort, making it the capital seat
of Hunza. The power struggle between the two brothers eventually resulted in the death of younger one, and so Baltit Fort
became the prime seat of power in the Hunza state.
