Farvahar Symbolism
The Faravahar, a prominent symbol of Persian, is widely worn as a pendant. It is embraced by Iranians, including Zoroastrians and Kurds, and has therefore evolved into a secular national and cultural emblem.
Moreover, the Faravahar (Persian: فروهر), also known as the Foruhar, is one of the most recognizable symbols of Zoroastrianism, the ancient Persian religion.
Achaemenid Dynasty
The Achaemenid dynasty (Greek: Ἀχαιμενίδαι; Achaimenídai, Old Persian: Hakhāmanišiya; Persian: دودمان هخامنشی) holds a significant place in history. It ruled the Achaemenid Empire from around 700 to 330 BC.
The historian Manetho acknowledged rulers from the Achaemenid dynasty as pharaohs in the Twenty-seventh Dynasty of Egypt. This recognition began with Cambyses II, who conquered Egypt.
