The Zoroastrians are the followers of the Iranian Prophet Spitaman Zarathushtra who lived in the great Iranian homeland of Airyanem Vaejah c. 1200 B.C.E. They entered recorded history in 550 B.C.E. and for nearly a thousand years their religion flourished as the imperial religion of three great Iranian empires; Achaemenian, Parthian and Sasanian.
During this period, Zoroastrianism was a dominant religion whose beliefs influenced Judaism, Christianity and later Islam. The vast extent of their empire brought the Zoroastrians in contact with people of different races and traditions. Their willingness to absorb and adapt these influences led them to develop a distinct art form, as evident in the city palaces of Pasargadae and Persepolis and in the rock carvings of Naqsh-i Rustam and Taq-i Bustan.
This lavishly illustrated volume attempts to span a vast period of time and gives a glimpse of the life and times of the Zoroastrian people in Iran and India as manifested in their art. ISBN - 8185822719
