The Dardic languages

The Dardic languages constitute a branch of the Indo-Iranian languages. These languages are spoken in northern Pakistan, India in Kashmir, and a part of north-eastern Afghanistan.

This region is also called Dardistan: the country of the Dards. This name of people is quoted among the historians of Antiquity: Δαράδραι (Darádrai) for Ptolemy, Δέρδαι (Dérdai) for Strabo, Dardae for Pliny the Elder.
