Indo-Iranian studies
Indo-Iranian studies is an academic field focused on exploring the languages, cultures, history, and peoples of the Indo-Iranian branch of the Indo-European family. It examines ancient texts, linguistic developments, and cultural exchanges that link Indo-Aryan and Iranian groups. By studying languages like Sanskrit, Persian, and their related dialects, scholars gain insights into migrations, religious traditions, and societal transformations in South and Central Asia over millennia. This field helps us understand shared roots and historical connections among diverse peoples across a broad region.
