The Iranian theory of the origin of Serb people
"Serbi" located near the mouth of the Volga, based on Greek literary sources, in a map printed in London,
ca 1770
The original
Serboi were probably
Sarmatian (
Iranian) tribe, who lived in
Eastern Europe (Sarmatia Asiatica), to the north of the
Caucasus. The earliest historical records about these Sarmatian Serbs dates from the 1st century, in the works of the historian
Tacitus (ca. 50 AD) and geographer
Pliny (Plinius) (69-75 AD).
In the fourth century, these Sarmatian Serbs, together with
Huns and
Alans, moved to
Central Europe, and were found dwelling near the
Elbe, in a region designated as
White Serbia, in what is now
Saxony (eastern
Germany) and western
Poland. The Sarmatian Serbs, it is argued, intermarried with the indigenous
Slavs of the region, adopted their language, and transferred their name to the Slavs. Since the white colour was designation for the west, name
White Serbia actually could mean 'Western Serbia'.
Byzantine sources report that part of the Serbs (already a Slavic people by that time) then migrated southward in the seventh century and eventually settled in the lands that now make up southern
Serbia,
Montenegro,
Bosnia, and
Herzegovina. In this region, Serbs mixed with other Slavic tribes (which settled there in the sixth century) and with descendants of indigenous peoples of the Balkans.
Rival chiefs, or župani, vied for control of the Serbs for five centuries after the migration. Župan
Vlastimir formed a Serbian principality under the Byzantines around 850, and the Serbs soon converted to
Christianity. The Serbs had two political centers in the eleventh century:
Zeta, in the mountains of present-day Montenegro, and
Raška, located in modern southwestern Serbia.
Another part of the Serbs did not migrate southwards, but remained in the
Elbe region. Descendants of these Serbs are the present day Lusatian Serbs/
Sorbs, who still live in the
Lusatia (Lužica, Lausitz) region of eastern
Germany.
It is possible that the proto-Serbs in Sarmatia were similar to other Sarmatian/Iranian peoples on the northern Caucasus, such as the
Alans, and spoke an Indo-European
Iranian language similar to present-day
Ossetian. At some point in the history of the Serbs, this Old Serb language stood side by side with the
Slavic language in White Serbia (mentioned by the Byzantine emperor,
Constantine Porphyrogenitus), and likely even in the first 300 years leading up to the formation of the Serb state in the
Balkans in the 9th century. Even to this day, the
Serbian language has at least a third as many words in its vocabulary than other
Slavic languages. This is because of the influence of Old Serb and
Illyrian as well as
Turkish on the Slavic language spoken by the Serbs today.
One of the possible routes of the dispersal of the word "Serb". Note the similarities to the Croatian dispersal paths
What was the origin of the Sarmatian Serbs? Since the modern
Ossetian language derived from ancient
Sarmatian, we can search for the origin of Sarmatians if we compare relationships between languages of Iranian stock. The Ossetian language is a member of
Eastern Iranian branch of Iranian languages, along with
Pashtun,
Yaghnobi and languages of the
Pamir. The original homeland of the Sarmatians was probably in the region where these eastern Iranian languages are spoken today, somewhere between
Afghanistan,
Tajikistan and
Pakistan.
The Byzantine Emperor
Constantine VII Porphyrogenitos, in his
Book Of Ceremonies, calls the
Croats and
Serbs "Krevatas and Sarban"[
citation needed], who were located between
Alania and
Tsanaria.
Ṣārbān is also the name of a
Pashtun tribe in
Afghanistan, who are believed to be - at least in part - of
Scythian descent.
Today it is suggested that the modern Serbs and Croats were Slavs living in modern
Poland who assimilated the upper-class of the migrating
Sarmatian tribes, who subsequently lent their names (Hrvat/Croat and Srb/Serb). Early in Polish history, the Polish nobility claimed to be direct descendants of the historic
Sarmatian people.
White Serbia and
White Croatia, the original homelands of the Serb and Croat peoples before their migration to the
Balkans, were located, respectively, in the territories of modern
Poland,
Bohemia, and eastern Germany (
see Sorbs). This suggests an immediate link between the two Sarmatian-origin theories, but fails to provide a confirmation.

. Ich habe mal im Geschichtsunterricht noch die These gelernt, dass unsere dirketen Vorfahren, die ersten homo sapiens, eh ihre absolute Wiege in Afrika haben bzw. Vorfahren wahrscheinlich aller europäischer Völker dann über Indien/ Vorderasien nach Europa zugewandert sind. Sollte ich mich völlig irren, bitte ich herzlich um Korrektur.
. Man kann sich in tausend Jahren noch darüber streiten, wer nun wo wegen der Geschichte mehr "Siedlungsrecht" hat. Mir wäre es zu schade. Versuchen wir doch alle einfach, mit den heutigen Realitäten zu leben und wenn es geht doch möglichst in Frieden
