Still, it is reasonably clear that in the first quarter of the first millennium, nomadic cattle-herders speaking an Indo-Iranian language infiltrated the Zagros and settled among the native population. (The language of the newcomers can be reconstructed from loan words, personal names and toponyms.) The tribal warriors are mentioned for the first time in the AssyrianAnnals as enemies of Šalmaneser III (858-824). KURMa-da-a ("the land of the Medes") included the Zagros, "bordered on the salt desert" and "continued as far as the edge of Mount Bikni" (i.e., Mount Damavand, east of Tehran); its inhabitants were divided into several smaller clans, and although the Assyrian kings were able to subdue several of them, they never conquered all of Media.
So, one thing is clear, this tribe of "Mada" or "Medes" came from central Asia and were nomadic cattle herders.
Now the point is, which other tribes were present in central Asia? and what were their meta names or meta clans?

History is best when created, better when re-constructed and worst when invented.
If u study more, u will find, the nature gods of Aryans like Indra, Varuna, etc. and their description was already present in this empire and related later empires. It is interesting that in presence of these gods of nature worshiped by these nomadic tribes was already engraved on stones and rock inscriptions and these predates 1000 BC.
Interestingly in India, there are no such inscriptions, whatever matter like Vedas, etc. are there, were in verbal form and were documented on " Bark of tree", etc. very late in history.
I am even doubtful, if there are any Vedic inscriptions before 4th century AD, the last known Sycthian migration into mainland India.
Whatever real facts were there would have been distorted due to blind religious following in India due to religion being a business for ages for certain sections of society and people. This has only disconnected us from rest of the world.
If we see the time period of Scythian and Median dynasty rule, we see their time coincide:

Interesting map, which shows "Scythia" and "Media" side by side. Scythia being more towards central asia. This means, Scythians migrated to media at a later time period then media.

There kind by the name of:
last great king of Nineveh, Ashurbanipal (669-624 BC). Now this word is formed from two words : Ashur + banipal. We have a Jat gotra called "Banival", is it possible that this klan traces its ancestry to the mentioned king. We know the concept of Ashur and Sur.

hi bro
The word Aryan, is our tribal name if you like, to make it as simple as possiable for you to understand.At the beginning they were all one, about 4000 years ago they divided into two groups, half went into India and mixed with the Dravidians, the habitants of the Indian sub continent. The Dravidians who look like aboriginals from Australia mixing with the caucasian looking Aryans, the result being the way Indians look today. The name Aryan only survived amongst the Indian as more of the philosophical and spiritual term then anything else.The other half went into Iran ( medes, Persians and Parthians ) and some stayed in the steppes ( Scythians who divided into few other groupes such as:*Cimmerians, Sarmatians, Alans, Roxolanis, and Jazyges ).*comparing the Rig Vede to Avesta would explain the division.Divas are gods in Rig Veda, in Avesta Divas (Divs in Persian)*became Demons and Ahura Mazda the lord of wisdom has been mentiond as the only true god.And also has been mentioned that the Aryanem vaeja was the original homeland of the Aryans, which was the south of Aral sea modern day*

Records of progenies in ancient times were kept in Bible and other ancient texts. Lot of wars were not fought in the name of religion in ancient Europe, this helped the old information and documents to be preserved in form of old fragments of Bible and their characters.
Interesting fact is Biblical version of "Medes" connect them with one single person, whose children were formed different tribes of "Medes":
Josephus relates the Medes (OT Heb. Madai) to the biblical character, Madai, son of Japheth. "Now as to Javan and Madai, the sons of Japhet; from Madai came the Madeans, who are called Medes, by the Greeks" Antiquities of the Jews, I:6.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akkadian_Empire
It is interesting to see that "Akkadian Empire" predates "Mede Empire". Arrival of "Mede" to North West of Iran happened very late in this time scale. This could very well mean, that "Mede" were living in central Asia before their arrival in the north west Iran. This connects them with "Indo European Tribal roots". Where as "Akkadians" or "Kadians" as well them in Jats moved from central Asia to Middle east much earlier on time scale.
One of the words that has its derivation origin for Gujjars is "Khakzar". "Khakzar" was an ancient "King" but we must remember he was just one person, so all the family names of "Gujjars" can not own their origin to "Khakzar", so the origin of word "Gujjar" from "Khakzar" is not accepted. As there are lot of clans in "Gujjars" who have very different family names and have different "root words" or "origins" which overlap with "Jats" and other tribes of that time period.
One of the clan names for "Jats" is "Bud Gujjar", "Bud means big", which could very well mean the spread of "Jats" or the Klanish identity of Jats or it can also mean the "Older origins of Jats which exist in Indo European tribes and people" one proof of this is the presence of "Family names and root words used by Jat people which are also found very similar to lot of people and tribes in Europe"

Before marching forward on the issue of central tribes.....migration in India, it would be worthwhile to visit some of the earlier discussions through many threads, like :
http://www.jatland.com/forums/showth...aracter-or-not
http://www.jatland.com/forums/showth...quot-Jats-quot
http://www.jatland.com/forums/showth...wer-discussion
and so on.
It is necessary to avoid repetation as well as to save time and unnecessary argumentation for or against the issue to update oneself what already has been put before the readers already
