What on Earth Happened to the Old Indo-Europeans? 

Honestly same and it’s really sad that some ppl get treated differently b/c of their complexions eventho they’ve originated FROM THE SAME COUNTRY!

Same with hazara people

Well im Afghan so it makes sense but Uzbeks have some indo iranian so yeah thats probably why

It can also came from Russian immigrant to who mixed with the native

@Not Berber Green eyes is what you get when you mix blue eyes and hazel eyes. You can only have green eyes, if you inherited one blue gene from one parent, and a hazel gene from the other parent. Having green eyes is a sign that some kind of mixing happened. Original indo-europeans didn't have blue eyes (or at least, it was not common) Indigenous Europeans (hunter gatherers) had blue eyes and dark skin. Every single indigenous European who's remains were found and tested, had both blue eyes phenotypes. Meaning, 100% of the the ones we know of, had blue eyes. The indigenous Europeans were first replaced by the Neolithic Farmers who migrated from Turkey and took over Europe. Then a few thousand years later, they were replaced by the Indo-europeans who then took their turn to take over Europe. (Of course, a lot of mixing happened.) We also know that all blue eye genes trace back to a single ancestor. Who lived 6000 to 10000 years ago. So, if you have green eyes, it means you have one blue gene and one hazel gene. And, if you have either green or blue eyes, it probably means you have some indigenous European ancestry.

I'm having more fun than ever getting out these videos

Very good video. But it is unfortunate that we use the term Indo-Europeans. Their name is Arians but because of the racist history of WW2 we had to stop the use it.

@Siyovaxsh En-sipad-zid-ana Not really. Arian is in use in European names as well.

@synco pated No its not, Schytians have nothing to do with Persians. They were both Iranic but clearly very different people. Persians descend from old Persians and Pashtuns descend from the Scythians, Even the Saka language was Eastern Iranic and had trouble communicating with the Persian speakers who were Western Iranic speaking. You have no evidence for Persians being Saka so stop spreading misinformation.

@synco pated No i did not do that because i am well aware Iranian-=/=Persian. But you have absolutely NO evidence that the people of Tehran are somehow of Saka root and are aware of it. Tehran is a mixed area with different ethnic groups living there and has faced tons of migrations over the years. Not to mention the Saka's never invaded Persia but were at their borders. Like i said the only possible candidates of Schytian descendants would be the Afghan/Pashtuns nobody else.

Same here. I also find it interesting how they're ethically Iranian yet have nothing in common with the Persians, ect.

Hello my iranian borodar😂

@Bayek Of Siwa I mentioned a fact. Borders of geographic areas change.

@Bayek Of Siwa It has taken its name from them. I do not think anybody surveyed and mapped the old Sistan but it is likely its Western parts has overlaps with current Sistan. The main point was that they did not completely disapear. Their stories and heros are alive in Iranian epics and stories ( and probably in other languages and cultures somehow) and they gaved their names to the place they lived and the place has given its name to the people born there or lived there ( there have been many historic people with Sajestani after their name ). I hope someone from China or India share what he knows about them and the traces of Scythians on their language and culture.

The Tocharians had many subtribes. A large branch became the mostly Afghanistan based Kushans. Another branch resided in the Himalayan mountains and were later associated with the Huns, the White Huns. They are the ones, along with the Red Huns Kitharites, that migrated to Afghanistan again and ruled over Afghanistan and even defeated the Sassanians in battle. They ruled over modern day Afghanistan and Pakistan, CAR's, and parts of India and Iran. They were later dispersed by a joint Turk-Sassanian assault. Branches of them went west towards Iran, some went East towards India, and some remained in Afghanistan in the region of "Gharchistan" where those nomads became associated with Turks who did not resemble or dress like Turks, and eventually amalgamated with the Pashtuns. The Ghorids were also associated with them, and they also amalgamated with the Pashtuns-Afghans. This could explain why Masaman agrees that the Pashtuns probably resemble the original Indo-Iranians.

In Tajikistan archeologists found many Tocharian manuscripts, also they found the biggest Buddha in Nirvana statue in Ajina-Teppa Monastery in Southern Tajikistan, remnants of multiple Buddhist monasteries build during Kushan times left in Tajikistan. If you visit Tajikistan visit their National Museum of Antiquity where they have that sleeping Buddha Statue.

RūdābaJān Exactly

Tajiks no, they are too mixed. Pashtuns and Pamiri's probably descend from the old Indo-Europeans.

Afghanistan has too many foreign genomes to be really any thing similar to the old indoeuropeans....

chachi mogo seriously this guy wants to always claim Pashtuns are somehow “purer” than other afghans. Meanwhile, I’ve seen Pashtuns of ALL phenotypes. There’s mongoloid Pashtuns, Indic Pashtuns, white Pashtuns, Arab Pashtuns, etc...

Yes, Masaman should defenitelly make a video about Tocharians. From my own list, I would also add Sogdians in there.

Just don't kill the remaining Dards left

Abhinay Raikar Lolz, Dards ( Shina speakers, Khowar, Kalashi, Kohistani ) are all living peacefully in Pakistan. Who’s killing them ?

The Dardic languages are descended from a sister language to Sanskrit, not directly from Sanskrit like Punjabi, Sindhi and Urdu in Pakistan. The Kushans were thought to have spoken a Tocharian language, and they were in control of much of North-West India, Pakistan, Afganistan and possibly parts of Tajikistan and Kyrgystan about 2000 years ago. However, their administrative language was Bactrian (East Iranian language), even though they themselves most likely spoke Kushan (Tocharian) natively among the Kushan elite.

Eli Malinsky I can speak Shina and I have so many Khowar , koshur and kohistani Friends . Believe me all these Dardic languages are so far from being mutually intelligible, even cognates among these languages is very rare . This classification is more like a geographical classification. Balti ( a tibetic Language of Pakistan) though not intelligible with all the other Tibetic Languages But you’ll find so many cognate especially nouns .

@@danyaltokhi6359 Not really....the separate Afghan identity only came about when the Turks (mostly) and Arabs (to a lesser extent) invaded the region and islamised/turkified the region. North east part of Afghanistan was always part of india during Indus valley and then vedic mahajanapads such as kamboja and gandhara. Even during Mauryan times, then invaders such as Persians, scythians, parthians, indo-greeks, Huns settled in the region and were indianised due to the already established indian population and culture in the area. Before islamised Turks from central Asia invaded the region, kingdoms such as kabul shahi and Hindu shahi were very much part of indian civilization. Afghan as a separate identity is maybe only 500 year old after Durrani came to power or if we want to be modest then 1200 year old. Afghans culturally and ethnically are a mix of Turks, Indians, scythians, Huns, indo Greeks.

@@pantekinuyghur8645 There is no proof for the Xiongnu being the Huns, except chronological fit. Most probably they were different nations. The words we know from hunnic are not turkic. Drowing conclusions by names is stupid, since names are the most fluent part of languages. Turkic names csme with the common steppe culture, just like how hebrew names come with the common christian culture.

​@@davidbence485 Drawing conclusion by names is "stupid"?? give me a break. You think Hun tribes call themselves with Turkic names for no reason?. Sarighur, Qutrighur, Onughur... These are Turkic names and these tribes are Turkic. I am not saying all Huns were Turkic. Of course as any other Nomadic empires, the Huns were confederation of different people, but the ruling clans were Turkic.

also most of the armies were turks and manchus along with other non han chinese.

Then Huns invaded but Vikramaditya(Kumar Gupta) conquered and enslaved these huns who introduced Hunnic customs of animal sacrifices and inbreeding into religion of their overlord Guptas (which was manusmriti oriented Hinduism)

@@topg2820 do you watch survive the jive? That guy does very indo-european videos.

@@go6o92 The only surviving Thracian language is Albanian. We know that because of close kinship with Romanian, a Romance language with a substratum that was pretty much akin with what we know as Albanian. Romanians are, mostly, latinised and slavicised Thracians. Albanians are not Illyrians, as they want to believe, due to linguistic issues. Ancestors of the Albanians are most likely Dacians from Dacia, the Northern branch of the Thracians, who lived mostly in modern day Romania. Descedents of ancient Illyrians are the Armenians, although they also descend from other Indo-European groups. We know that there was an Illyrian tribe in modern republic of Macedonia called the Bryges who migrated into Anatolia to become the Phrygians, who in turn migrated to Urartu and, mixing with the Urartrians, formed the Armenians.

@@go6o92 We can not deny that Bulgarians descend, themselves as well, from Thracians. But what you say about Bulgarian being the bridge between Romanian and Albanian ignores linguistics. There were studies conducted in several countries regarding the connection between Albanian and Romanian and it is pretty clear that it goes into Antiquity. There many features common between Albanian and Bulgarian, from the language core that are not found into Bulgarian or Serbian or Greek. Albanians were not formed were are they now, linguistics show us. If they were the old Illyrians, as they claim, they would have been mostly hellenised during the Hellenistic period and a small part would have been romanised. We see little to no Greek influence in Albanian. Also, we can trace their migration from what is now Romania through Serbia and Kosovo into modern day Albania via toponyms. Modern Romanian (not Aromanian, spoken into Macedonia, Albania and mostly Greece) indeed has a lot of Slavic influence, from the Slavic people who lived in Romania and were assimilated, but also from the time Romanians were part of the first Bulgarian Tzardom, when Medieval Bulgarian, aka Church Slavonic was adopted to fight the catholic expansion and keep Orthodoxy. Also, there is what is called a pan-Balkanic language union. Romanian, Albanian and Bulgarian were close to each other for a long time and they borrowed each other no just words, but also grammar structures. This is different from the origin of the languages, And Greek is defanatly not the bridge between Romanian and Albanian. This would be a statement like French is the bridge between English and Welsh. Greek in its core is not closely related to either Romanian, Albanian or Bulgarian. The closest language to Greek in that sense is Armenian, a descendent of Illyrian. It is now considered very likely that Ancient Greek and Ancient Illyrian were closely related, similar to Italian and Spanish today. The next language group to be related to Greek in its core, after Armenian, are the Germanic languages.

@zolizar , Sogdians were mostly slaughtered by the Mongols. They spoke an Eastern Iranian language, probably where some of the isolated communities (Kohistani Tajiks) still exist, in Tajikistan, west China, and in Afghanistan; where the Pashtuns, the descendants of the another original Eastern-Iranian speaking Iranians reside.

That's interesting. It's strange how people think of South Asians as homogeneous

Masaman - yeah it’s interesting. South Asians are quite mixed. But basically (excepting Northeast India, Hazaras of Pakistan, Ladakhi of India and a few others), most people are Ancestral North India + Ancestral South Indian genetically. Although proportions varies from North to south. Iranian genes are also quite common particularly in Gujarat, Sindh, Rajasthan and Balochistan. Also seen among Brahmins in South India.

As the country would be landlocked with mostly mountainous terrain leaving little room for agriculture, small population and in a strategic location for trade, it would just be a colony for it's neighbors. I think a more realistic country would be Gilgit-Baltistan itself, with the addition of the Wakhan corridor for access to the rest of Central Asia.
