The name Luri is used very broadly and is often used incorrectly by non-Iranians. Here we present 4 main Luri groups.
Group 1: Luri from Luristan province in the center. There is a very good site about them at www.LuriPeople.com
Group 2: Luri from Buyer Ahmad Province in the South. Some of these Luri are called Mamasani. There is a very good site about them at www.everytongue.com/mamasani
Group 3: Bakhtiari in the south who speak a language that some call Luri and is very close to other Luri languages. We have made a Bakhtiari site at www.NomadPlace.com\Bakhtiari
Group 4: Laki in the North who are closely related to other Luri. Many Laki also speak Luri. Some say Laki people are more related to Kurds.
