Eh? Persians gave the name "Hindus" to the people living in that area. But they had their own religion, Zoroastrianism. They didn't bring Hinduism because they didn't have Hinduism.

It was then the shared pre-Zorastrian Indo-Aryan Vedic religion.

They're not sure on the name of it though it was likely they had a theme song that sounded familiar to Hanson's mmmbop

Uh. Zoroastrianism was a "reform" of Iran's Indo-Aryan religion that was closer to Vedic Hinduism.
