They were powerful during Sassanid era as well as in Middle Ages. Today a Kurdish clan by this name exists just nowthwest of Kirmanshahan.

origins

Some historical documents such as "Fars-nama"(ca. 1107 CE) and "Maslik al-absar" of "al-Umari" do not consider "Shabankareh" as Kurdish and differentiate between "Shabankareh" and Kurds Fact|date=August 2007. The Kurdish history of "Sharafnama" (written by "Sharaf al-Din Bitlisi" in 16th century), does not mention "Shabankareh" among the Kurdish dynasties [ [http://www.encislam.brill.nl/data/EncIslam/C4/COM-0544.html] Dead link|date=February 2008] .

Some modern scholars are of the opinion that the Kurds mentioned in Islamic and Persian sources as living in south and southwest Persia (Fars) were probably not true Kurds, but nomadic tribes speaking southwest Iranian dialects related to modern Luri and Persian [John Limbert, "The origins and appearance of the Kurds in pre-Islamic Iran", Iranian Studies, Vol. 1, No.2, pp.41-51, Spring 1968, p.48]

It is even recorded that Ardavan last Parthian King addressed Ardashir as "a Kurd, Born in the tent of Kurds and raised with Kurds".
