Title

Khwadā y-Nā mag in Bundahiš n: The account of Sasanid history in Bundahiš n

Pages

  71-111

Abstract

 Middle Persian Zoroastrian texts prove instrumental in illuminating the religion, culture and history of the Sasanian era. Compiled after the fall of Sasanid empire and in the ninth century of the common era, these texts drew on the ‘ translations’ and Avestan interpretations at the Sasanid period. One such text is Bundahiš; n, literally meaning ‘ Primal creation’ , which is a trove of Zoroastrian knowledge, preserving many ancient Persian myths and legends. Chances are that the original writing of the book was completed at the end of the Sasanid era. New information was added to the final version in the ninth century of the common era by drawing on a variety of religious and historical sources. In Chapter XXXIII of the book, the section on “ the afflictions which befell Ē rā n-š ahr in each millennium” presents a synopsis of the Persian history from the creation to the coming of Arabs to Ē rā n-š ahr and the death of Yazdgerd III; it then gives an account of Ē rā n-š ahr’ s fate until the emergence of Saoš yant on the basis of the Zoroastrian foretelling. This research is a comparative and analytical study. It compares the information about Sasanids contained in this Chapter with that provided in the historical sources of the Islamic era. It will show that the following stories are based on Khwadā; y-Nā; mag and the Bundahiš; n must therefore be regarded as useful sources for studying the Sasanid history. The accounts provided in the book are: Ardaš; ī; r Bā; bakā; n’ s efforts to annihilate feudalism and re-establish Zoroastrianism, Shā; pū r II’ s battle against Arabs, seven-year drought in Pirū; z’ s time and Hephthalites’ incursions, the emergence of Mazdak in Qubā d’ s time and his death through Khusraw Anū š irvā; n’ s stamina, his battle against Huns, and the coming of Arabs to Ē rā n-š ahr in Yazdgerd III’ s time until his death.
