This a 14 page journal authored by Alexander Lubotsky which traces words in Old Persian to their Scythian root.  Interesting read.

Ok it works now.   I just skimmed through it and it seems it made lots of similarities between Ossetic, Scythian, and Avestan.  It was a nice read, thanks for sharing Zagros Purya.

By the way, is that Afghan flag in my avatar the most popular among secular Afghans?  I have seen one or two others.
