Were Kakuyids Kurdish or Deylamite? Names like Kakuyeh and Kalijar are dylamite. So were their overlords and relatives, Buyids. Were does the Kurdish connection come from? mrjahan Feb. 3rd, 2007
Amardi (tabaristan, pre deylam) were called kurds (parthian times), but so was another group (who was not deylamite) and it seems to be a generic term for tent-dwellers (nomads) at first. Zaza people share language feature with deylami, fully not kurd (ethnic groupp)but some claim themselfs, some not. Look at the non mutual kurdish language for a hint that kurd was generic iranian-speakers (like lurs).
So the kurdish connection comes from you reading a modern understanding. Ardashi babak-nameh for western kurd-refrence, and one of the phrates for amardi/nort kurd-refrence. Also laks and lors and bakthiars in lorestan are 3 modern
groupps yet language closer to each other. Just a curiousa, that seems to have been a ban on magic names(soothsayer,magican etc) islamic maybe. Like the yazidis.
