'Jaṭṭ-speakers';[3] also known as, Jatgal,[4] Nummaṛ or az-Zighālī) is an Indo-Aryan ethno-linguistic group which speaks the Jadgali language.
[8][full citation needed][9][2] Anthropologist Henry Field notes the origin of the Jadgals to be in the western Indian subcontinent; they subsequently migrated to Kulanch and are still found in Sindh and Balochistan.
[13] In 1811, Saidi Balochis as well as Jadgal mercenary troops were killed in a battle with the Wahhabis against the Sultanate of Oman.
[14] The modern-day Jadgals in Oman claim to be descended from Arabs, however they also accept the folk etymology of them being from Sindh, in the lower indus valley.
[18][19] Jadgal people in Balochistan speak Jadgali language, although they converse with strangers in Balochi.
