Sakzai (Pashto: سکزی‎), also called Sakazai, Sagzai, Sagzi and Sijzi (Arabic: سجزي‎‎), are a historical Pashtun tribe of Afghanistan located within the locales of Nimroz, Ghor, Helmand and Farah.[1][2] The Sakzai are 24 subtribes and 95 or 96 clans with an approximate population of over 4.9 million people. Their name suggests a connection with the historic East Iranian Saka tribes of Central Asia.
