The Iranian Origin of Croats - White Red and Green Croatia

http://www.iranchamber.com/history/articles/common_origin_croats_serbs_jats.php

The Iranic origin of Croats is in fact the only way one can comprehend the traditional distinction existing between White Croatia, Red Croatia and Green Croatia: "After the Iranian fashion the ancient Croats ascribed a specific colour to each of the four cardinal points of the compass in the territory which they inhabited. The colour white designated the west, red the south, green the east, and black the north. (10: Saussure, Le Systeme 235-297; idem, L'origine des noms 23; Sakac, op. cit., 37-40) Hence White or West Croatia, Red or South Croatia and Green or East Croatia." (Mandic 1970, Ch.1)

Further, Dobrovich notes, "It should be noted that only the thesis of the Iranian origin of the Croats can explain the name "Horvath", the title of a Croat dignitary Banus, the names "White" and "Red Croatian", and the Bogumile phenomenon. According to this theory, the Croats were a branch of the Caucasian Iranians, who lived somewhere in the western Caucasus during the era of the Roman Emperors. The Caucasian Anten were another branch of this group." (Dobrovich 1963)

Let us conclude this section on Croats with the words of the learned Prof. Mandic: "The oldest historical evidence, the ancient Croatian social organization, religion, national customs and art indicate that the Croats are of Iranian origin." (Mandic 1970, Concl.)

Now, the exact path of migration of the Croats from Iran to the Balkans is still disputed. Some hold that they migrated via Anatolia, others that they migrated via Central Asia and the Pontic region. Some of the latter historians link the Sarmatians with the Croats and Jats. Thus, Dvornik traces both Serbs and Croats back to the Sarmatians of Southern Russia (Dvornik 1956). The Sarmatians were generally identified as Scythians. Thus, Sulimirski, author of "The Sarmatians" also makes mention of the referral of the Emperor's to the Belochrobati or White Croats who "exhibited certain Sarmatian characteristics ... [they were] of Iranian origin" (Sulimirski 1970, p.190-1) Their interest to history stems from the fact that their matriarchial Scythian society probably formed the basis of the Greek legends of the Amazons. In this connection, it is interesting to note numerous reference to the fighting ability, combat skills, bravery and great freedom of Jat women - the Jat amazons.

The name Sarmatian is an Anglicization of the original Sauro Matii, the Latin form of the Prakrit Surya Madra or Surya Mada. The name means "Solar Medes", in English, another testimony to the worship of Surya, or Cyrus, the Asshur of Assyria, the Ahura Mazda of the Zoroastrians, the splendid Sun-god of the Iranic peoples. In this regard, Mandic notes, "Indeed from the end of the I to III century A.D. in the city-state of Tanais, in the region of the Don, lived various Iranian tribes of Samatians as well as Croats who must have been Iranians. (4: Concerning the Iranian tribes in present-day southeastern Russia around the Don and the Iranian origin of the Croats, see: Niederle, I, 321-434; Rostovtzeff; Vasmer, I; Hauptmann; Nartical; Sakac, 313-340; Dabo-Peranic. For a summary of the theories on the Croatian name see: Sisic, Povijest Hrvata 238-240) Furthermore the national name "Croat" is of Iranian origin. According to the Russian Vselod Miller the name "Croat" comes from the Iranian word Hor-va (t)u meaning: the sun's bed or path. (5. Miller, 259 sq.) M. Vasmer derives the Croatian name from Hu-urvata meaning, "friend". (6. Vasmer, op. cit., 56) And the terms used to designate the high officials among the Croats, "kral, ban, zupan", are of Iranian origin. (7 Sakac, The Iranian origins of the Croats, 30-46; RP 195-201) (Mandic 1970, Chapter 1)

"A scholarly Croatian society called ZDPPH recently held a conference on the Iranic origin of Croats, where genetic evidence was presented. According to the society's president Nedjeljko Kujundzic, "Swedish geneticists have confirmed, in 75 percent of cases, that Croats are of Iranian origin." (Hina 2000) Two days after the news conference, the book "Indo-Iranian Origin of Croats" by Mate Marcinko was released in which much additional proof was presented. "

@warcrimeserb reci ti meni po kojoj osnovi smo mi "pokatoličeni" srbi?hrvati su na ove prostore doselili u 7. stoljeću.isto tako je činjenica da se srpski jezik temelji na hrvatskoj književnosti i gramatici koja je nastala 200 godina prije srpske.također se pomiri sa činjenicom da je hrvatska u doba kralja tomislava bila jedna od najmoćnijih država tadašnje europe sa carstvom koje se protezalo preko hrvatske i današnje BiH pa sve do djelova današnje albanije tako da nije moguće da smo srbi.pozz

@Lilim27 Indeed. Many in Europe have Iranic roots and are in fact Iranians

such as Croatians, Bulgarians, Slavs, Germans and Celts.

And SeeN0More is right, Iranian Tribes mostly looked Nordic or Semi - Nordic but due to climate changes

many changed but they are still Aryans.

DE MALO OBJASNI TO HAHAHAHAHA

[Lilim27]

haha, ever knew what Hitler was referring to when he said Germans were 'Aryan'? Germans, a Germanic tribe, like all their Germanic neighbours, Slavs (all of them obviously including Croatians from this vid), Scandinavians, Celts, Gauls, Balts, Lombards, Dacians (i.e - South Slavs), etc all descend from either Scythians, Sarmatians and Parthians... which were all Indo-Iranian tribe progenitors of these varying ancestral lands. These people were known to be Aryan. Arya means Iran, noble origin.

@LibertarianPersian

well essentially, the Iranian identity would = Airiyan identity thus -> Nordic features. before Airiyans came to the land, Iran did NOT exist, semites were there and the Airiyan kicked them out and mixed forming Iran = Land of Airiyans.

[SeeN0More]

@LibertarianPersian Turks are mongols and non indo european. Iranian tribes living in Iran in ancient times were Nordic or semi-Nordic. The medians0kurds), persians and parthians.

Respond to this video...

The part I'm disagree is Persian Iranian have always been white from the beginning actually,without any connection with Europe,so why some Iranian are whiter than Turkish people? your logic would be true if all the Turkish were whiter than Iranian,

[LibertarianPersian]

@r3dxmafia i agree with some part of your statement not all of them, a typical Persian Iranian complexion is dark brown hair/eyes and some of them light brown, the colored one's are in Minority and there is no doubt, but we are really proud of our complexion, the thing u mentioned about propaganda is that Iranian wants to get rid of Arabizing so they will come up with those things,

[r3dxmafia]

@LibertarianPersian The reason the people in the north are more white is because they have had contact with white Europeans. It funny how these videos of iranians show them with blue/green eyes. Blue/Green eyes are of European origins. So you know if you every see someone that is lighter in color and eye color, it is because of the contact they had with Europeans.
