Indo-Iranian languages
Indo-Iranian languages are the eastern-most group of the living
Indo-European languages. They are well represented among the oldest records of Indo-European languages. These originate in the area surrounding the southern part of the
Urals, and early on split as they settled east and south of the
Caspian Sea in
Iran,
Afghanistan and
Pakistan (see
Aryan invasion). Their expansion seems to have been connected with the invention of the
chariot.
