Ghorbati

The Ghorbati (also known as Mugat or Hadurgar) are an ethnic group and originally a nomadic community in Iran^[1] Afghanistan, and Central Asia, where they are part of the various communities termed Lyuli.^[2] They are mostly situated in Iran, where others have migrated from. They trace their ancestry to Sassanid Persia.^[1]

In 1976–77, the Ghorbati in Afghanistan numbered 1,000 families (ca. 5,000 people).^[2] Some settled in Peshawar, Pakistan, and some subgroups are connected to the Basseri and Qashqai tribes.
