The Banuchi (Pashto: بنوڅي), Shitakzai (Pashto: شیتکزئی), or Banusi, Banisi,Shitaks originally Shitakzai Afghans, are a Afghan,Pashtun tribe which have the reputation of being one of the most warlike amongst the Afghan or Pashtun people.The trend of nationalism is also high among the intelligentsia. They are settled in Bannu, Dera Ismail Khan, North Waziristan and Kurram of Pakhtunkhuwa, some members of which are settled in Paktia, Paktika,Khost and Injil of Herat, Afghanistan. Shitak was the name of his ancestors. Hence, according to Afghan/Pashtun traditions, his descendants were called Shitakzai, "Zai" mean "son" in Pashto, so Shitakzai means son of Shitak. However they are famous by their nickname like Banuchi or Banusi and these people call themselves Banisi, because the name of the Bannu area comes from Bin, a sinskrit word which is used for a forest,there were plenty of mulberry trees and Shisham trees. Later on, it evolved into Bana and then to Bani. Even local people and the surrounding people used the same names that are Bana or Bani for Bannu currently. .[1][2][3] The Banuchis descend from the Shitak superclan[4] of the larger Karlani tribe.
