jats are an ethnic group of people native to mainly the Punjab region of Northern India and Pakistan that have attributes of an ethnic group, tribe and a people.
The Jat people are considered by some to be the merged descendants of the original Indo-Aryans and a later addition of Indo-Scythian tribes of the region, merging to form the Jat people.
Others conclude a native Indo-Aryan lineage on the basis of ethnological, physical and linguistic standards.
The Jat people of India and Pakistan are not to be confused with the peripatetic Jats of Afghanistan, who are a distinct ethnic groupThe Jat people have a discrete and distinct cultural history that can be historically traced back to ancient times
