so zagros, lets get into the deeper meaning here, and the medean connection with azari's. the genetic tests that have been posted show a more caucasian ancestry, maybe that of another iranic tribe?

No. Definately not.

The Medeans, it can be argued, in the same wat that Turks Turkified Azarbaijan, Iranianised Media-Atropatene, sure some of it was down to migrations into the area, but it was largely due to cultural and linguistic. Same with Persians, they Iranianised their region and this is also reflected int eh fact that most Persians have indigenous genetics.

There is a good reason why those genes have more in common with the Caucasus, the area was previously inhabited by non-Iranians, the Hurrians who spoke a caucasian language akin to Chechen and others.

Hello.  I have one question to iranian members here:

What was the official alphabet of the Sassanid empire(up to the arabian-islamic invasion in 7th century)?

This topic is about the origin of the present day Azaris, right? How can anyone exclude the Turkic origin, while they are presently belong to Turkic group? It's really odd.

One present nation can be originally belong to several groups. there are so many examples, such as Bulghars, Hungarians, Ukranians, Turks etc.  

It's probable the native people pior to the Turkic migration were Caucasian, Iranic, Ugrian or Indo european. The question is how come they had been Turkified, if Turkic tribes had no major role in the formation of them as Azaris? 

The ruling power? I don't think so. You only need to remember Moghuls in India and  Manchus in China.

The culture? No again, as the native culture seemed to be more attractive.

The population? This seemed to be the answer, given the fact that above two possibilities are slim.

So the conclusion is that Azeris are orininally mainly Turkic, partly native people who belonged to other groups.

Thats because there is no evidence of a strong Turkic movement into the region until the first millenia. 

Most likely the inhabitants of Azerbaijan have been Turkified, like some people in Anatolia...

Nothing, true. Like azeri-medean connection.

Err, Turks at anatolia used azerbaijan as a way. So we are surely have some turk at there.

Infact If turkish empires at iran loved and supported persian culture(as a lot of our persian friend said), There were not any reason for turkification of other people, so I cannot see any reason for turkification, except a large turkish iimmigration to that lands.

The key is you must rephrase the bold type sentence as "... like the people of Antolia" - there's no reason to believe that what applies to Azerbaijan does not apply to Turkey. Said that, I admit that there must have been some major movement of Turk warlords and their tribes/armies but this doesn't mean that the previously existing large agricultural population was exterminated: it just changed master and assimilated to the new one. And most of the ancestors of modern Turks and Azeris logically belonged to the working class (natives) not to the aristocratic Turk elite that anyhow was surely already very mixed. With time differences dissapeared - at least in most cases - and we have now a new genetically native but culturally Turk ethnicity.

Azeris and Turkish, like so many others, are relatively new peoples in this regard, though they have the same ancient heritage as any other but in two branches: native and Turkic. Much of the same can be said of so many people:
  • English: pre-Celts, Celts, Romans, Anglo-Saxons, Normans...
  • French: pre-Celts, Celts, Romans, Frankish...
  • Iraquis: ... Sumerians, Akkadians, Arameans, Assyrians, Persians, Arabs, Turks...
  • Egyptians: ancient Egyptians, Assyrians, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Arabs...
  • Mexicans: early nations, Mexicas + other nations, Spanish...
Etc.

NO GOD, NO MASTER!

the turkish origion is not included because it would mean that there was a tribe of turks called azaris that came from central asia to the caucasus. this is not true.

if you think that azari's were origionally turkic, than thats like saying the people of anatolia were origionally turkic.

they are now turks because they have been turkified.

Turkification probably started largely after teh russians took the land, and tried to seperate and create a division from iran.

the reason i say this is because historians record the people speaking an iranic language as far as teh 17th and 18th century.

well, the moghul empire was turco persian. the turks ran the military aspect, the persians ran the administration and culture and stuff like that.

the culture was definetly iranic.

    no, they arent origionally turkic. you have no proof, this is all just your analsys.

let me ask you, were the anatolian people origionally turkic?

wow.  ok, iranic peoples were in the near east more than 3000 years ago, so it is very possible that azaris were iranic, or iranified, before the turks even got there, 2000 years later....

read my above post for the answer to this question.

but incase you dont:

azarbiajani turkification didnt start until after russian interference.

just the same as the culture of central asia was mostly iranic until russian interference.

so hitits and other anatolian people too, so turkish-hitit relation is same with azeris-median relation but interestingly, when you love to call azeris, iranian persian, you dont call turks as hitits.

Did I miss something? why are you so hopeless about azeris, I am sure they have more turkish blood than Turkey turks.

Turkification probably started largely after teh russians took the land, and tried to seperate and create a division from iran

so why are there still turkish speaking people at iran? because of russia. Dont be so much naive. They were turk before russians.

Maju has pretty much summed everything here up.

I am again inclined to close this thread because of the direction it has yet again taken.
