A general term for the Iranian-speaking peoples of Iran, Afghanistan, and Central Asia. Among the eastern branch of peoples who spoke languages belonging to the Indo-European language family were groups who called themselves Aryans, some of whom became the origin of the Iranian peoples. The name Iran also comes from Arya (Ariya in ancient Persian). Others entered India and were called Indo-Aryans. The Iranians spread as horse-riding nomads from the Iranian Plateau to the Tarim Basin in the 1st millennium BC, and began the transition from nomadism to settled agriculture in various places.

イラン,アフガニスタン,中央アジアに分布するイラン系言語を話す諸族の総称。インド・ヨーロッパ語族に属する言語を使用する諸族の東方分派にアーリヤを自称する集団があり,その一部がイラン族の起源をなした。イランの名もアーリヤ(古代ペルシア語アリヤariya)に由来する。なお,他の一部はインドに入り,インド・アーリヤと呼ばれる。 イラン族は騎馬遊牧民として前1千年紀にイラン高原からタリム盆地にいたる地域に広がり,遊牧とならんで各地において定着農耕への移行を開始した。
