TheTimuri orTaimuri (Persian:تیموری) are a sub-tribe of theAimaq people ofAfghanistan andIran, one of the major Aimaq tribes, which also includeJamshidi,Aimaq Hazara,Firozkohi, andTaymani.[1][2] The Timuri originated in westernBadghis Province. They mostly speak thePersiandialects.[3]

The Timuri were once the largest and most powerful of the Aimaqs. They are believed to be descendants ofTimur. Nowadays, they live in Afghanistan and Iran. In Iran, they live in the formerKhorasan Province and aroundMashhad. In Afghanistan, their traditional nomadic homeland is Badghis Province, while others are settled in oases nearHerat andShindand in western Afghanistan and nearGhazni in central Afghanistan. There is also a small group ofPashtunised pastoralist Timuri in Baghlan Province in northeastern Afghanistan.[3]

Johnathan Lee notes that in 19th century accords, the Taimuri were often confused with the Taimani, but as the Taimuri were generally a small tribe living in Persian territory, it is usually the Taimani that chroniclers intended to note.[4]
