The word Tandoor has its origin in the Hebrew word Tannur which has come from the Assyrian/ Ashura word Tinuru ! Ashuras fought multiple great war with the Deva or Devata group of people who used to speak Sanskrit ( script is -Devnagri) and established the Proto Vedic culture on the Himalayan side of Hindukush. If you move through the land mass starting from Turkey - Israel , moving through Georgia, Azerbaijan , Mesopotamia ( modern day Iraq ), Persia ( Iran) , Afghanistan to Kashmir then you will find this same oven , with very similar phonetic name.
History of Bread making is as old as Civilization ! But , it was Jews people who started making bread by placing the dough on the side wall of a burning oven ! Naan is made that way ! In Kashmir you will find variety of bread, Naan (at least 5 varieties without stuffing), Bakarkhani ( I had 2 varieties) , Bun, Sweet bread, salted bread... bread to go with tea, bread for dinner / Wazawan !....... When in Kashmir valley get the taste of Central Asia because this is where India meets Central Asia.
