The Kambojas were a tribe of Iron Age India, frequently mentioned in Sanskrit and Pali literature.

The Kambojas of ancient India are known to have been living in north-west, but in this period (9th century AD), they are known to have been living in the north-east India also, and very probably, it was meant Tibet.

The Kambojas were probably the descendants of the Indo-Iranians popularly known later on as the Sassanians and Parthians who occupied parts of north-western India in the first and second centuries of the Christian era."

The Kambojas find prominent mention as a unit in the 3rd-century BCE Edicts of Ashoka. Rock Edict XIII tells us that the Kambojas had enjoyed autonomy under the Mauryas.

THE LAST POINT IS..

There are references to the hordes of the Sakas, Yavanas, Kambojas, and Pahlavas in the Bala Kanda of the Valmiki Ramayana.

Answer 2

Answer :-

______________________

Kamboj people are an ethnic community of the Punjab region of India and Pakistan. The Kamboj people are a traditionally agricultural community in Northern India and Pakistan. Primarily of Hindu, Muslim and Sikh faiths, they now live mostly in the Indian States of Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand and Uttar Pradesh and the Pakistani provinces of Punjab and Sindh. Kamboj People (Punjabi:ਕੰਬੋਜ, Hindi:कम्बोज, Urdu: ک�…بوہ‬‎ ) also known as Kamboh (Punjabi: ਕੰਬੋ, Hindi: कम्बो, Urdu: ک�…بوہ‬‎ ). Kamboj is frequently used as caste name or surname or last name in lieu of the sub-caste or the gotra name by many Kamboj people currently living in India. Their Muslim counter-parts living in Pakistan mostly use last name Kamboh instead of the gotra name. A good many Muslim Kamboh are also found in the Doab region of Uttar Pradesh, India, especially in the town of Marehra, and call themselves Zuberis. The Kamboj people are the modern representatives of ancient Kambojas, a well known Kshatriya tribe of Indo-Aryans, stated to have had both Indian as well as Iranian affinities and mentioned in ancient Sanskrit texts and epigraphy. The Kambojas were an Indo-European Kshatriya tribe of Iron Age India, frequently mentioned in (post-Vedic) Sanskrit and Pali literature, making their first appearance in the Mahabharata and contemporary Vedanga literature (roughly from the 5th century BCE). Their Kamboja Kingdoms were likely located in regions on both sides of the Hindukush (see Kamboja Location). They apparently qualify as an Indo-Iranian people, better as Iranians, cognate to the Indo-Scythians. "It seems from some inscriptions that the Kambojas were a royal clan of the Sakas better known under the Greek name of Scyths" . In the wake of Indo-Scythian invasion of India during the pre-Kushana period, Kambojas appear to have migrated to Bengal, Sri Lanka and Cambodia in the period spanning the 2nd century BCE and the 5th century CE. Their descendants held various principalities in Medieval India, the one in north-west Bengal being seized, around middle of tenth century CE, from the Palas in Bengal.

1. The ancient Kambojas were probably of Indo-Iranian origin.

2. They are, however, sometimes described as Indo-Aryans.

3. and sometimes as having both Indian and Iranian affinities.

4. The Kambojas are also described as a royal clan of the Sakas.
