The ethnonym Afghan ( af n ) has been used in reference to the Pashtun people during the Middle Ages and the Early Modern period. The name Afghanistan ( af nist n ) is a derivation from the ethnonym originally in the loose meaning "land of the Afghans (Pashtuns)". Originally, it referred to the territory inhabited by Pashtun tribes and was later adopted by the Pashtun-dominated kingdoms of Kabul The name Afghan is believed to be first attested in its Arabic form in the 10th century Hudud-al-Alam. It likely derives from a Sanskritic tribal name, A vaka, used in reference to the Kambojas in antiquity. The Arabic Af n is an adaptation of the Prakritic form Avag n , as first used by Varahamihira in his B hat Sa hit in 6th century CE. Since the Middle Ages, "Afghan" has been used as a synonym for Pashtun.
