Many pages of long history of Balochistan are still untapped and contemporary readers either know about these pages very less or associate these important historical pages (which encompass important events) with other nations, cultures and groups. One such an event is the history of Med tribe in Mekran and very few people know about it. At present time this tribe who is counted among the ancient families, has lost its power and is leading a destitute and oppressed life and in the struggle for existence is facing painful odds. Med tribe is the first Baloch ruling tribe which defeated in present day Iran’s ancient Peshdadi family in 854 B.C.E., and laid down the foundation of a large empire. They first developed the relationship with Aryan invaders but in the beginning of 6th century B.C.E., the Aryans Achaemenians occupied its kingdom and badly dispersed this tribe. In the beginning of 5th century B.C.E., they were finally defeated in Mekran. But we cannot deny the fact that this tribe played a significant role in Politics and Government of Balochistan. The under mentioned research essay is about the rule of the tribe Med in Ghaznavid era which is sometimes wrongly associated by many writers with the rule of Arab families. While historical facts and authentic statements record this rule as purely a government of local people. The essay in question is basically descriptive and mostly based on primery sources, however, secondary sources also been used. In writing and completion of this paper, all the research principles have been kept in view and utmost care has been taken in written statement.
