This investigation is aimed to study the relationship between the utilization of milk and the civilization of several tribes in the northern part of the southern Asia. We have carried out our present investigation, narrowing the matters for investigation chiefly to the simple patterns of manufacture of butter, thereby explored the origins of the cultures relating to milk utilization by several tribes in Nepal. Although it can't avoid that we may make some mistakes in the process of drawing a conclusion from the observations obtained in our present investigation, we are confident that there exist three different types of butter churns (Dongmo, Khalwa and Thaykiy) in Nepal. These churns expressed concretely the big three cultures, that is, Tibetan culture, Islam culture and Indian culture which have greatly influenced to today's national character of Nepal. We actually observed that the culture of Islam has widely and deeply diffused in Nepal. This fact well coincided with our knowledge which we had obtained from several sorts of literatures extending over long years. In near future, we are going to investigate each cultural area in Nepal in more detail as much as possible.
