Abstract

One of the most mysterious popular beliefs of south Kerman’s people in Iran is about a bird so-called “morqe sho”. According to them, this yellow and golden bird can change its size and appears in night. The bird is associated with MYTHological creatures in a way and by blood sucking of babies causes their death. In the passage of time, the stories about the bird have been intertwined with reality and fantasy, and in popular belief, the bird has become a frightening one. The aim of present article is to introduce this bird and trace it in the MYTHs of other nations by using descriptive-analytical method. As a result, the bird has some themes of Simorq, Vampire, Kamak (Iranian MYTHical bird), Garuda (Indian MYTHical bird), The Stymphalian birds (a group of birds in Greek MYTHology) and Lilith (a Mesopotamian MYTHical character). Also, for the people in the past, the bird's BEING BLOOD SUCKER and DEATH CREATOR is related to some illnesses.
