Hemphrey, Sam states the Afghani was in his skunk #1 though:

I called all versions Skunk #1 they were all from the same genepool Afghan / Colombian X Acapulco Gold, just selected for different end goals. I never called any Skunk #1 RKS that name popped up long after Skunk #1 was introduced in 1976 (people did say it smelled like a dead run over skunk near a grow). I did not like to smoke the really skunky ones they were stony as hell but did not get you high the way I like, so by selection I altered that and made a much higher sweeter version that was pretty much ceilingless when the resin was smoked, and still strong as hell but a better high to me. I also increased the brancheyness (from the main stalk, side branches from the branches, from the branches from the branches) making more sites for bud as well as increasing the flower to leaf ratio. I always did selections with big plants in the ground to avoid using parents that cant hold up big flowered branches, I want strong stems, and reject parents that have problems."
