The Aryans probably came from central Asia. They had been steadily crossing the Khyber Pass in the Hindu Kush Mountains for many years and settling in the Indus Valley, mixing with the local population. Although they had been nomadic herders and warriors for a long time, they were ready to settle down to farming and they appreciated the relatively steady food and water supply they found in the valley.

By 1000 BCE, the Aryans were fully in charge of the region and had expanded their control over a wide area. Although the Aryans didn't build cities or create great works of art, they left two legacies that greatly influence life in India even today: the caste system and the Hindu religion.

An ancient people that spoke Indo-Iranian languages gave themselves the moniker "Aryan." Speakers of the Indo-European languages Sanskrit and Avestan are among the descendants of the Aryans. The word "Aryan" originally meant "nobles" in both ancient Persian and Vedic cultures. Iran itself translates to "Land of the Aryans."

The Zoroastrian Avesta (Vendidad, Fargard 1) uses the Avestan name Airiianəm vaēǰō (literally, "Aryan expanse") to refer to the motherland of the Aryans and one of Ahura Mazda's "sixteen flawless places." The "Aryan people" and "the Aryan countries" are other names from the Avestan language. Old Greek writers referred to these names as "Ariana." A region in the north of modern-day India was known by the Sanskrit name Āryāvarta, which means "abode of the Aryans." The Sassanian Empire, which controlled Persia from the third through the seventh centuries, was known as the Aryan Empire in Middle Persian under the name Eran-shar. Iran is now merely the Persian word for an Aryan.

The oldest known written form of an Indo-European language is Sanskrit. This language served as the basis for the Vedas. The Rigveda is thought to include some of the earliest Indo-European language writing.
