  • Who are the #Brahui people?
    They are considered the only (and the last) Dravidians of Pakistan and Afghanistan.
    0:00 Intro
    0:25 Main Dravidian peoples
    1:12 Brahui people - Location
    1:52 Where do the Brahuis come from?
    2:49 First theory - Dravidian migration to India
    3:50 Second theory - Dravidian migration from India
    4:30 Etymology
    4:55 Linguistic aspects of Brahui language
    6:08 Threats to survival of Brahui language
    6:54 Usage of Brahui in Education and Media
    7:22 Brahui literature
    7:50 Brahui script
    8:07 Brahui - an endangered language
    Their total estimated number is just under 3 million. Most of them, about 2.6 million, live in Pakistan in the province of #Balochistan.
    In Afghanistan, although official numbers are difficult to find, it is estimated that there are around 200,000 nomads or semi-nomads of the Brahui ethnic group, located in the southern province of Kandahar.
    Alongside these larger and more consistent groups, Brahui communities are found even further west. For example, in Iran, precisely in the eastern province of Sistan and Baluchestan, bordering Pakistan. Here they are estimated to be a few tens of thousands, about 20,000.
    However, very surprisingly, a small Brahui community is also present in Turkmenistan, in the oasis of Merv, at the gates of the ancient silk road.
    Beyond the numerical factor, the most important question is: who are the Brahuis, what is their history? Are they really the last descendants of the Dravidian people, and therefore the confirmation of the #Dravidian presence throughout the Subcontinent before the arrival of the Aryans? Or, otherwise, are the descendants of migratory groups who moved here from other parts of India, thus refuting, in whole or in part, the theory of the Aryan invasion?
    Let's analyze these and other questions concerning the Dravidians of Pakistan and Afghanistan in this video!

    a great research about Brahuis. I am a Brahui from Balochistan Pakistan. approximately 40 to 50percent of Balochistan's population is Brahui the area of the state kalat which lies from quetta the capital of Balochistan to to the border of province sindh is mainly Brahuis people.

      I agree with you that Ancient pandya kings-Dravidian King... were related to Ancient indo iranian people and some pasto and baloch .
      Coz southern tip of tamilnadu like madurai-Tamils have almost facial cuts are similar..big face, long facecut ,extra average forehead ,wide average thin lips,protuding chin and tall height with large fingers,feet, broad shoulders and complete body structure.. it's possibility..we have common ancestors..these people are warriors like people.
      These are akhand bharat- ancient people.-Common Ancestors. Some people in south resemble like pasto people.And I claim and have solid strong proof.

    I watched a video of a Turkish professor who said the Sumerian language and Dravidian languages have similarities. I've also learned that the Dravidian languages are agglutinative languages like Turkic languages and the word order in both groups are SOV, i.e. subject+object+verb. I wonder if there are further similarities.

    They are descendants from the Zagros mountain Iranian farmers. Who mixed with the aboriginal Indian population and gave birth to the Dravidians and the Indus Valley Civilization.

    • @TheGeekySimo
      @TheGeekySimo  Před rokem +18

      Your mention of the Indus Valley Civilization is very interesting point, that also lead to further discussions. Thanks for having brought it up!
      See, despite many academic works conducted on this matter, so far archaeological discoveries and limited linguistic evidence available do not allow us to identify with certainty the language (or languages!) ​​of the Indus Valley Civilization. If we add to this the presumed geographical-temporal extension of the main linguage families of present-day India (Aryan and Dravidian in particular) and the influences that the languages part of those families had on each other over the millennia, the situation is even more complicated.
      As mentioned in the video, the languages of the Dravidian group, despite being mainly concentrated in southern India, also have a scattered presence in other parts of the Subcontinent. Examples are those of the Brahui language in the north-west, and the Kurukh and Malto languages in the north-east.
      Beyond the hypothesis that the Brahui language could have originated from the "counter-migration" analyzed in the video (minute 3:50), the presence of groups speaking Dravidian languages in areas far from central southern India could indicate that Dravidian speakers probably had a far greater prehistoric presence in northern Subcontinent (including the regions covered by the Indus Valley Civilization) than the limited one they have today.
      Another theoretical linguistic relation I suggest to to deepen is the Elamo-Dravidian one. Clearly it deserves more attention, and it could help to resolve still many questions that remain obscure about both the linguistic past of the Subcontinent and that of the Indus Valley Civilization.
      Sorry for the long comment, but this topic is extremely interesting and deserves to be discussed thoroughly! 😃

    • @MrLantean
      @MrLantean Před 10 měsíci +7

      Brahui is classified as a Dravidian language due to its grammatical structure identical to Dravidian languages. However it is estimated that only perhaps 20% of the lexicon is Dravidian origin while the rest are predominantly derived from Iranian languages especially the neighboring Balochi language. For example: 60% to 70% of the lexicon of the English language is derived from Romance languages but the language is classified as a Germanic language due to its grammatical structure identical to Germanic languages like German and Dutch.

    • @TheGeekySimo
      @TheGeekySimo  Před 10 měsíci +1

      Hi Rohini! There are several videos online trying to address this question, however, as far as I am concerned there are no official studies in that sense. So, we can only speculate about how Brahui and other Dravidian languages are intellegible. Furthermore, trying to compare the Brahui language to "all" the other Dravidian languages is a hopeless undertaking, considering the extension and the profound grammatical and lexical differences existing between the different languages part of the Dravidian family. We must therefore subdivide this linguistic family to look for some proximity. Therefore, considering the belonging of Brahui to the Northwestern group of Dravidian languages, the linguistic and lexical proximity occurs above all with languages such as Malto and Kurukh. Now, does this proximity mean intelligibility? Not at all. As already noted by other users, although Brahui and the other Dravidian languages share a lexical and grammatical commonality (at different degrees), millennia of isolation in a predominantly Iranian and Indo-Aryan linguistic region have determined its independent development and the loss, if there ever was, of any intelligibility with the others Dravidian languages.

  • @harminderbedi8448
    @harminderbedi8448 Před rokem +29

    They are the original Dravidians who are descended from Zagros farmers (Neolithic Iranians) and indigenous Indians mixing to form the ASI (Ancestral South Indian) population. Most likely due to geoclimatic reasons, the Indus Valley Civilisation died off and many people had migrated away from the region, mostly to peninsular India where they mixed with the native tribes. Few went west, and remained as Brahui.
    Then came Aryan populations from the North-west (Eurasian Steppe), who were nomadic pastoralists and would go where the grass is green (literally). The steppe is very cold and frozen during winter, so they migrated southeast, and when they discovered the heaven that was the IVC, they decided to settle and mingled with the remaining ASIs in the IVC and formed the ANI (Ancestral North Indian) population. This new ANI society had new beginnings, publishing texts like the Vedas that made reference to all these holy places around Punjab and Indo-gangetic plain as they spread out. The dense forests of central, south and east India had made it difficult for these ANI communities to spread further with all their cattle, bullock carts, chariots, and skilled personnel. Chopping down the forests was too much hassle when they could just be happy with the slice of heaven they found, and be close to all their new 'holy' pilgrimage sites. Down the track, ANI populations had migrated through trade and conquest as part of empires such as the Mauryan empire, to help the kings establish a self-sufficient economy with the varna system and spirituality through vedic texts, whether the promoted religion was Buddhism or Hinduism or Jainism. So that is how South Indians also have ANI blood but is far more diluted, and is more common in the castes like brahmins, warriors, traders, but is even found in some remote tribes like the Chenchus of AP/ Telangana.
    Punjab, where I'm from, has absorbed every ethnic gene pool, so is as "Indian" as you can get - unity in diversity. Right from the original native adivasi Indians, to Zagros/ Dravidian, Aryan/ Steppe Caucasian, Greek, Afghan/Iranian/Persian, Scythian, Turko-Mongol (Huns and Mughals) and lastly British. In Punjab, you will see enormous diversity in phenotypes.

    The word Brahui is the name of union/confederacy of 25 tribes of Baloch which formed against Jadgaal Tribes during in 1660-1680s AD. Before Brahui Union (Baloch) dominancy in Sarawan and Jhalawan, the Brahui language Called Kurdgaal/Kurdish language . This indicates that this language was adopted by these Baloch tribes as well as other Baloch tribes who later migrated to sarawan and jhalawan. This language might formed some 7000 to 8000 years before when Neolithic Iranian farmers migrated towards modern day Balochistan ( Mehr gadh) first then to indus valley where IVC born. It was Henry potinger who for the first time in 1810 AD called Kurdgaal language as Brahui language to divide Baloch nation on the basis of Languages for the sake of Political interest of British . According to latest genetic reports Brahuis are considered to be very closest to other Balochi speakers Baloch. Similar to Other Balochs the Brahui are also share 60-70% genetic relationship with Neolithic Iranians. American linguist MC Alpin relates brahui language to Elamitic languages of Northern iran. No doubt that brahui language has few similarities with Other south Indian Dravidian languages but the genetics is totally different.

    When saying the word "Brahui" might derive from "Ibrahim", you should have stated that it's just one theory. The precise origins of the name are unknown, and the explanation doesn't sound very plausible IMO.
    Due to their geography, there's been a lot of mixing between Brahui and Baloch people. Pakistan has a lot of small and endangered languages across the country. There's also ethnic groups in the north, such as in Gilgit-Baltistan, from non-Indic and non-Iranic ethnolinguistic families. It would have been good if there was more cultural education about them to breed familiarity among most citizens and to preserve history.

    I wish Brahui people demand for a separate province "Brahuistan", just like in ancient time it was Kalat Princely State, which was one of most wealthy, peaceful and progressive states in Indian subcontinent, Brahuis are more peace loving, educated, progress loving, caring for their own community, less corrupt people compared to other ethnicities of Pakistan, If ever Brahuistan became a separate province, it would be alot ahead in education, infrastructure, peace and progress than being part of Balochistan. They can also then save and protect their one of the oldest language, culture, etc, and introduce their identity and culture to the whole world.
    Otherwise, I fear that brahui language and culture is severely endangered, and a time might come when there would be no Brahui speaking person left on earth, I hope they realize to save their ancestoral language.

I'm a mix of mullahzai baloch(my great grand mother and great great grand father were Iranians who came to Pakistan) and zehri brahui and ik that the culture is 99% same, and the language has similarities too.

One of the most plausible hypotheses is that considering the formation of the Dravidian languages to be the result of (more or less) spontaneous integrations with the different ethnic and linguistic groups that came to populate the Subcontinent. Specifically, the mix occurred between 5000 and 4000 years ago between the Iranian farmer communities coming from the North and the pre-existing aboriginal inhabitants of India, the direct descendants of the first human populations that reached South Asia following the big migration waves from Africa between 70-50,000 years ago, genetically labelled as Ancient Ancestral South Indians (the AASI you correctly mentioned).

    It is not 'Aryan Invasion' theory. It is 'Aryan migration' theory. Aryan tribes had been migrating to Afghanistan and India since the Indian sub continent parted from Africa and hit the Asian continent. Since then, the only way to get to India is through Afghanistan. Since then large number of Aryans came and attacked India with Babar leading the army. Since the Mugals came to India, Central Asian Aryans had been coming to India in large numbers and it has not stopped yet.

    • @TheGeekySimo
      @TheGeekySimo  Před 10 měsíci +4

      Correct, it would be more appropriate to talk about "Aryan migration" rather than "invasion". We cannot exclude that this human migration involved invasions as it moved southwards into the Subcontinent. However, it is more correct to talk about migration. But pay attention to the dates. It is claimed that the Aryan migration to the Subcontinent occurred as soon as it rejoined Asia (approximately two million years ago). In reality, an approximate date for the appearance of the modern human being in the world (specifically in Africa), the homo sapiens, would be 300,000 years ago, well beyond the junction of the Subcontinent with Asia. Furthermore, the Aryan migration would have occurred no later than the second millennium BC.

      Hi, thanks for your comment. Unfortunately, their origin is still uncertain. So, to a certain extent, everything would be possible. Personally, I like to think that they are the last vestige, given their isolation over the centuries, of a much more extensive Dravidian presence in South Asia before the migrations of other people from central Asia and Iran. Practically, this corresponds to what I reported in the video at minute 02:49 in relation to the first theory - Dravidian migration to India

    Brahui isn't even a completely Dravidian language, its writing style is the reason why people classify it as a Dravidian language, it has more language similarities to balochi and pashtho (iranic languages). And even when we look at the DNA, they are completely different from south indians. I'm a mix of mullahzai baloch(my great grand mother and great great grand father were Iranians who came to Pakistan) and zehri brahui and ik that the culture is 99% same, and the language has similarities too. And there isn't a lot of facial differences between them either, both my dad and moms side are light skinned with Iranian facial features.

    • @TheGeekySimo
      @TheGeekySimo  Před 15 dny

      Thanks for your interesting comment! What do you mean by "writing style", the alphabeth? They do not use a distinct alphabeth, rather an adapted form of the Arabic one, as I described in the video at minute 07:50. Whatever their origin, I think it is obvious that genetic, cultural and linguistic similarities exist between the Brahuis and the populations/communities around them, given that they have shared the same geographical space for centuries. Nonetheless, the main fact is still unanswered, that is why a Dravidian language, or with numerous Dravidian linguistic, lexical and grammatical presences, has been detected in this remote part of Asia, thousands of kilometers away from the Dravidians' homeland.

    • @MrLantean
      @MrLantean Před 5 dny

      Brahui is classified as Dravidian due to its grammatical structure identical with other Dravidian languages especially the more well-known Tamil. It is the only known Dravidian language spoken in present day Pakistan. At first the Brahuis were though to be descended from Dravidian migrants from southern India, but DNA testing has shown that they are genetically indistinguishable with their Balochi speaking neighbors as well are genetical distinct from the Dravidians of southern India. This may indicate that perhaps Dravidian languages were far more widespread in the past and perhaps the Baloch people were once spoke a Dravidian language before changing it for an Iranian language. The ancestors of the Brahui on the other hand retained their Dravidian language while incorporating loanwords from their Balochi neighbors.

The reason dravidians were pushed down to south the invation of aryans(the word breakup of iran mixture of euro middleeasten orgins) and after that the islam invation brahuis too as others forced to embrace islam.
