Yes, most evidence shows that Medians and Persians adopted Zoroastrianism, they didn't invent it. Zoroaster is normally assumed to have lived in Southern Afghanistan, but if this discovery can be complemented in the future with more exploration around the Pamir Plateau, while there are similar initiatives being undertaken in Balochistan and the Pashtun lands (it's necessary to confirm if remains there are more recent than those in Pamir), I think we could confirm if he was actually someone living around Tajik lands rather than in Eastern Persia/Southwestern Khorasan.
