Not only the Pathans, but also the Afghan Royal Family has a wellknown tradition, reporting its origin in ancient Israel, coming from Binyamin
tribe.
This tradition was first published in 1635, in a book called Mahsan-IAfghani and is often mentioned in the research literature. According to this
tradition, King Saul had a son named Jeremia, who had a son named
Afegana. Jeremia died at the same time the death of King Saul and Afegana
was created by King David and remained in the royal court during the reign
of King Solomon.
Thus, the Afghan Royal Family has the ancient tradition of Israel - the
tribe of Binyamin.
