The Tanoli (Hindko: تناؤلی; Urdu: تنولی) is a Hazarewal Hindkowan tribe from the Hazara region of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan.[1][2] The Tanoli describe themselves as of Barlas Turkic origin and predominantly speak the Hindko language today.
They form the majority of the population of Lassan Nawab union council.[3] The Tanoli never submitted to the British colonial rule in the 1840s.[2] They have two major divisions, namely Palaal (پل آل) and Hindaal (ہند آل).[4]
Genetics
A genetic analysis of tribes residing in Buner and Swabi found that the most prevalent Y chromosomal haplogroup among the Tanoli is R1b1, with a very small contribution of R1a1, a genetic characteristic unlike Pashtuns. L-M20 and other South Asian lines are also present but to a small extent.[5]
