Some of these Zagrosian migrants who reached south Asia may have remained herders to this day, like the Brahuis of Balochistan. They speak the Brahui language, which has been linguistically determined to be closely connected to Elamite. Other migrants from the Zagros may have settled down in places like Mehrgarh to become farmers, and both the herders and the farmers may have mixed with the existing population – the First Indians – at some point.
