About Pakhtuns/Pashtuns/Pathans

Although historians trace back the existence of the Pakhtun nation for thousands of years very little has been written by the Pakhtuns themselves. For that we have to rely on foreign historians. Any writings of the Pakhtuns themselves can be traced back a couple of hundred of years.

From the menu on the left, you can select and read a wide range of articles from many sources to give you an idea of how diverse this nation is.

No man. Pallavas were dravidians not parthians. please check history paged from wiki. When i saw your above -| censored |-ment i thought. please see the below para which i got for you. cheers -

Assuming the correctness of the identification of the Pallavas with the pauranic Pahlavas, and of the Pahlavas with the Parthians, there are good historical grounds for supposing that Parthian colonies established themselves in the Deccan at a very early period.[24] From the time of the separation of Bactria from Syria in the middle of the 3rd century BC, the tendency of the Bactrians, forced by the pressure of their western and northern neighbours, was to extend themselves southwards into India. The Parthians, after their conquest of the Bactrians about a century later, followed up their successes by overrunning the Indian provinces of Bactria. The natural effect of this latter movement was to press the conquered Indo-Bactrians still further southwards and eastwards into India, with the concurrent tendency on the side of the Parthians always to follow up the retreat of their vanquished foes. After another interval, the Indo-Parthians were themselves forced out of their possessions in Afghanistan, Punjab, and Upper India by the Scythian invasion, and their only possible refuge then was in the south.
