Ancestors of ancient baloch people..?

Who were the ancestors of baloch people during ancient times**

forgot to write times** :$

The ancestors of Baloch people were ancient Baluchis, the ancestors of Kurdish people were ancient Kurds, and Medes are an extinct people, there is no reason to consider an ancient people as the ancestors of another people because we don't have much recorded history about the ancestors of the second people.

i always thought that balochis and kurds both were descended from the medes :P

it was me i forgot to login before replying :D

No. The Romans and the Greeks were distinct ethnic groups until the conquest of Greece by Rome. Roman identity and language was lost during the Byzantine era. Greek identity and language survived till now.

The medes are the ancestors of kurds and balochs i was just reading that on wikipedia.

I believe the medes separated into various ethnicities including Kurds, Baloch. etc. Both mentioned peoples speak Iranic languages belonging to the northwestern branch, so it's a good guess that they are closely related. Balochi language is northwestern Iranic like Kurdish and if not mistaken lori

Civilisations can decline as well as advance. Take Europe after the Romans left: the tribes soon reverted to barbarism while their former masters became increasingly weak and decadent

Generically baloch seem to be very ancient people, they seem to be the descendants of the farmers that arrived to south asia from the middle east, sometime 9000-12000 years ago

The Baloch are an off-shoot of the Medes who arrived around 5 centuries ago in South-Central Asia presumably from the Caspian basin. Balochi is a northwestern Iranic language.
