The Acha Khel (Achu Khel in Thorburn) are one of the five Marwat divisions named by Ibbetson. The 1883-4 Gazetteer gives their sections as Begu Khel, Isak Khel and Ahmad Khel, and groups them with the Khuda Khel as the Dreplara circle, the most numerous Marwat group, whose villages run from Lakki to the hills. Rose's note, quoting the 1907 Gazetteer, appears to make the Khuda Khel a branch of the Acha Khel.

The Achakzai live in Toba, Pishin, Chaman and around Kandahar. Elphinstone and Encyclopaedia Iranica count them as a Zirak clan of the Durrani, and the Loralai gazetteer notes that the old name Abdal is still used for them.

The Adam Khel hold the range between Kohat and Peshawar around the Kohat pass, in four septs: Hasan Khel, Jawaki, Galli and Ashu Khel. Ibbetson and Bellew count them among the eight Afridi clans; Encyclopaedia Iranica (1984) calls them an assimilated clan that the six Khyber clans do not recognise.

This group holds tribes that live among the Pashtuns and are counted with them, but that the genealogies do not trace to Qais. Ibbetson lists the Dilazak, Swati, Jadun, Tanaoli and Shilmani as races allied to the Pathan; the Dilazak and Jadun appear in the tree where the genealogies place them. The Kuchi (pawindah) nomads are left out, because the name describes a way of life shared by nomadic and trading sections of many tribes, chiefly Ghilzai and Lodi.

The Afridi (اپريدي, Aprīdī) are a Karlanri Pashtun tribe of the Khyber Pass, the Bazar and Bara valleys and Tirah Maidan, divided into eight clans; in 1672 Afridi and allied tribes under Aimal Khan and Darya Khan destroyed a Mughal army at the top of the Khyber.

The Ahmadzai are the Sulaiman Khel Ghilzai of Logar, Kabul, Gardez and Jalalabad, mostly settled farmers. Their Jabbar Khel section was reckoned the leading house of all the Sulaiman Khel, and its men attacked the British retreat in 1842.

The Ahmadzai are one of the two main clans of the Ushtarani.

The Ahmadzai are the southern section of the Darwesh Khel Wazirs, living on the Wana and Shakai plains of South Waziristan, Pakistan, with settlements on the Bannu border. They descend from Ahmad, son of Musa Darwesh.

The Aka Khel hold the low hills from Akor to the Bara and land south of the Bara next to the Orakzai. Ibbetson and Bellew count them among the eight Afridi clans; Encyclopaedia Iranica (1984) calls them an assimilated clan that the six Khyber clans do not recognise.

The Aka Khel are a mostly nomadic Ghilzai tribe of Sharana and Katawaz in south-eastern Afghanistan, closely allied with the Sulaiman Khel and Ali Khel. Bellew places them in the Isap branch of Burhan, beside the Sulaiman Khel.

The Akazai are one of the three Isazai clans of the Black Mountain and Mahaban.
