Hi, this is a link about a major discovery (in persian):

It's said that Professor shrafian Bonab found that all Iranian groups living today in Iran have more than 70% common gene pool. This gene pool goes back for about 10000 years ago, in southwestern Iran... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.233.218.32 (talk) 22:06, 22 March 2012 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Category:Indo-Iranian-speaking countries and territories
It is currently being proposed that Category:Indo-Iranian-speaking countries and territories be deleted. This article is related to that category. The relevant discussion is located at Categories for discussion/Log/2020 January 8. The deletion discussion would benefit from input from editors with a knowledge of and interest in Iranian peoples.

Kamboja/Kambuja are Iranics
It is attested that they're of Iranic background and so geographically eastern/southeastern Iranic.

They're deeply linked to Kapisa Kingdom and the native Iranic population who have lived between ancient Kabul and Ghazni (Kandahar natives were Arachosians).

Today it can be assumed that one linguistic descendant of the language they might have spoked is the eastern iranic Parachi language spoken in Northern Kabul and neighboring regions of Panjshir and Kapisa which is a cousin or Ormuri and they're both forming one family.

Yes most of the tribes and people of ancient Ghazni, Kabul etc.. spoke Bactrian as it was the lingua franca of Ariana/Bactria and of greater Khorasan but it does not negate the existence of this lost language. 2A02:8428:809E:6701:F0D7:5A73:115E:BA24 (talk) 23:05, 1 January 2024 (UTC)
