Abhira tribe : ウィキペディア英語版 | Abhira tribe
The Ābhīras were a people mentioned in ancient Indian epics and scriptures as early as the Vedas. Patanjali Mahabhasya describes Abhiras as an enemy of the Aryans. A historical people of the same name are mentioned in the ''Periplus of the Erythraean Sea''. ==History== Sunil Kumar Bhattacharya states that the Abhiras are mentioned in the first-century work of classical antiquity, the ''Periplus of the Erythraean Sea''. Bhattacharya considers the Abhiras of old to be a race rather than a tribe. Scholars such as Ramaprasad Chanda state that the Abhiras were Indo-Aryan peoples. The Puranic Abhiras occupied the territories of Herat; they are invariably juxtaposed with the Kalatoyakas and Haritas, the peoples of Afghanistan. There is no certainty regarding the occupational status of the Abhiras, with ancient texts sometimes referring to them as pastoral and cowherders but at other times as robber tribes.
