The vague and indiscriminate use of the term Kurd goes back to early times. According to Ḥamza Iṣfahānī (circa 350/961), ed. Berlin, 151, "The Persians used to call Daylamites 'the Kurds of Ṭabaristān', as they used to call Arabs 'the Kurds of Sūristān', i.e. of 'Irāq". Other Arab and Persian authors of the tenth century A.D. mean by Kurds any Iranian nomads of Western Persia, suth as the tent-dwellers of Fārs
