Nice article... There is a parasurama being a Persian tribe theory... Check out.... Both might be related... Because parashurama appears in various times.. He actually might be part of a tribe that dressed in same way and followed same principles... Persians had coins with same description as parashurama... Ranbir Kapoor is god of acting | ||

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kambojas The Kambojas (Sanskrit: à¤à¤®à¥à¤¬à¥à¤, Kamboja; Persian: Ú©ÙبÙÛâ, KambÅ«h) were a Kshatriya tribe of Iron Age India, frequently mentioned in Sanskrit and Pali literature. Modern scholars conclude that the Kambojas were an Avestan speaking Eastern Iranian tribe who later settled in at the boundary of the ancient India. The Kambojas are classified as a Mleccha or barbarous tribe by the Vedic Inhabitants of India. Indologists believe that Kambojas have adopted Hinduism in a late Vedic Period. The Kambojas migrated into India during the Indo-Scythian invasion from the 2nd century BCE to 5th century CE. Their descendants controlled various principalities in Medieval India. Ethnicity and language[edit] The ancient Kambojas were an Indo-Iranian tribe.[1] They are however, sometimes described as Indo-Aryans[2][3][4] and sometimes as having both Indian and Iranian affinities.[5][6][7] The Kambojas are also described as a royal clan of the Sakas.[8][9] Iranian characteristics Linguistic analysis suggests that the Kambojas were East Iranians speaking the Avestan language.[10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] In the Mahabharata and in Pali literature, Kambojas appear in the characteristic Iranian roles of horsemen and breeders of notable horses.[10][18][19][20] The Kambojas were located partly in north-eastern Afghanistan/north-west frontiers province of Pakistan and parts of Tajikstan.[21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] The Bhishamaparava and Shantiparava in the Mahabharata indicate that the Kambojas were living in the north of India. Like other people of the Uttarapatha region, they are called mlechchas (barbarians) or asuras, lying outside the Indo-Aryan fold.[29][30][31][32] Majjhima Nikaya reveals that in the lands of Yavanas, Kambojas and some other frontier nations, there were only two classes of people: Aryas and Dasas, the masters and slaves. The Arya could become Dasa and vice versa.[33] This social organisation was completely alien to India, where a four-class social structure was prevalent.[32] The Buddhist commentator and scholar Buddhaghosa (2nd or 4th century CE,[34] expressly describes the Kambojas as having Persian affinties.[35][36][37][38][39] The Kambojas' religious customs were zoroastrian.[citation needed] Indo-Aryan characteristics Various ancient documents, such as the Vamsa Brahmana and Rig Veda, mention "Kamboja" in the context of the Indo-Aryan civilisation. These references have made various scholars argue that the Kambojas were Indo-Aryans and that in the early Vedic times they formed an important division of the Vedic Aryans.[4][22][40] Some versions of Matsya Purana [41] refer to name "Kamboja" as one of the Brahmana Gotras, having Bhargava, Chyavana, Aurva, Jamadagnya & Apnuvana as its Pravara---whereas the other versions substitute "Vatsa" for "Kamboja". Pt Bhupindranatha Datta observes that a Rsi from amongst the ancient Kamboja people had founded this "Kamboja" Gotra.[42] |
