Mongol invasion

According to , Mongols invaded Singh and Punjab in 1296-1297, being defeated by two Khilji generals. Later another Mongol army invaded in 1298 and captured Siwistan. --Kansas Bear (talk) 16:44, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

STOPIT!

I have corrected it many times, but seems someone with nationalistic ideas are deleting the mentioning of (Afghan) and only leave the turkic, whilst its comletely against wiki rules, they were treated as Afghans and always thought as afghans. infact afghan suris and lodhis were also khilji called ( ghilji or ghilzai) in afghanitsan. removing the afghan name from a dynesty which were precieved as afghans is totally unacceptable, dont remove, if u hve somthing discuss it here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.211.3.220 (talk) 21:55, 8 October 2012 (UTC)

I have seen no published sources to support your opinion. Unsourced information can and will be removed. --Defensor Ursa 02:48, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

The (source) was there before you deleted it. any way the whole article says that they treeted others like afghans and treated in courts like afghans , britanica which is cite is enough to prove my point. refert it back. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.211.3.220 (talk) 04:10, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

No. You added, http://www.britannica.com/eb/article-9045252/Khalji-Dynasty, here;, then you removed it here;. Britannica states, "Khaljī dynasty, (1290–1320), the second ruling family of the Muslim sultanate of Delhi. This dynasty, like the previous Slave dynasty, was of Turkish origin, though the Khaljī tribe had long been settled in Afghanistan.

I see nothing that states Turko-Afghan. --Defensor Ursa 05:28, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

Yes but the Ghilzai are known as Pathans or Afghans. The wikipedia article on them itself, which is well sourced says that. Also, they do not maintain cultural ties with Turkey. Many north indian tribes can be called indo-iranian. Would you list all north indians as persians? No, that's ludicrious dynasties and cultures change and the information should reflect that. This was an Afghan dynasty and the only reason people insist on hiding that today is due to the war. They want to make Afghans think they have only been the victims and destroy their society. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.141.204.116 (talk) 16:12, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

Pashtun influence on the Turkic Khilji

The sources in the article seem to agree that the Khilji had been Pashtunized (or "had adopted some Afghan habits and customs") during their settlements in present-day Qalat, Zabul Province, Ghazni, etc before arriving in India. They confirm the Khilji were not just normal or pure Turks. I think we should be careful in wording to reflect the influence of the Pashtuns on the Khilji better in the article in light of these sources. Khestwol (talk) 16:56, 5 March 2015 (UTC)

In some sources their origin is mentioned as "Turko-Afghan". "Afghan" in the pre-20th century context is mostly synonym with "Pashtun", so here we can use both words to show the influence on the Khilji. But because of the modern shift in the definition of the word "Afghan" due to the political situation (now "Afghan" is used almost exclusively for a citizen of the multiethnic Afghanistan, and not for the Pashtun ethnic group), I think, in modern times, it is better to use the wording "Pashtunized Turk" to express their origin. Khestwol (talk) 17:12, 5 March 2015 (UTC)

Do we have any sources that can support Pashtunized Turk? --Kansas Bear (talk) 18:31, 5 March 2015 (UTC)
