A Parsi Son of a Persi

The Medes were an ancient group who established the Median Dynasty in Iran (from around 700 BC to 550 BC), which then merged into the Achaemenid Dynasty, a Persian dynasty by origin that lasted till around 330 BC. But the Medes did not leave any written sources, and there have been several attempts by historians and archeologists to solve the mystery of which language they spoke.
