Anahita Temple at Takht-e Soleyman ‎معبد آناهیتا در تخت سليمان A temple attributed to Anahita, the goddess of water which is located to the northeast of the lake. People used to praise water in this temple. In some periods it was customary, in time of wars, to throw valuable and precious votive objects to the lake and believed that Anahita would protect them against enemies. So, there is hope for great treasure lying at the lake bed! معبد آناهیتا؛ معبد ستایش آب: معبد آناهیتا در شمال شرقی دریاچه در تخت سليمان نیز حائز اهمیت است، چون آناهیتا، الهه آب، مورد احترام ایرانیان باستان بوده است. با توجه به قداست و اهمیت آب در آئین زرتشت و در بین آریایی‌ها، معابدی برای نیایش و ستایش آب احداث گردید كه معبد آناهیتا (الهه آب) یكی از مهمترین آنها به‌شمار می‌آید. در ایران باستان آناهیتا فرشته و نگهبان آب و فراوانی، زیبایی و باروری است. آناهیته یعنی پاک و بی‌آلایش، این واژه در اوستا برای صفت فرشتگان و اشیاء، بسیار به کار رفته است، غالباً مهر و تشتر (تیر) و هوم و برسم و آب زور و فروغ و غیره به صفت آناهیته یعنی پاکی و بی آلایشی توصیف شده‌اند. در آیین زردشتی نگهبانی عنصر آب با فرشته آناهیتا (ناهید) می‌باشد، یكی از یشتهای اوستا به نام آناهیتا به آبان یشت معروف است، آناهیتا تنها ایزدی است كه اهورامزدا به او پیشكش ارزانی می‌دارد. ایزدبانوی آناهیتا را می‌توان ایزد پیش زرتشتی دانست؛ این فرشته در نزد ایرانیان قدیم دارای مقام بلند و ارجمندی می‌باشد. #sasanianarchitecture #sasanian #sassanian #sasanid #sassanid #sasanianempire #takhtesoleyman #Solomon #Azargoshasb #Zoroastrian #anahitatemple #goddess #water #WestAzerbaijan #iran #unescoworldheritagesite ‎ #آناهیتا #زرتشتى #ساسانيان #آتشكده (at Takht-e Soleymān)

Bahram I  was the fourth Sassanid emperor of the third Persian Empire (r. June 271-September 274). He was the eldest son of Shapur and succeeded his brother Hormizd I (r. May 270–June 271), who had reigned for only a year. Bahram I had the prophet Mani, founder of Manichaeism, sentenced to death because Mani was opposed to zoroastrianism.

Women in Ancient Persia

Women in ancient Persia were not only highly respected but, in many cases, considered the equals of males. Women could own land, conduct business, received equal pay, could travel freely on their own, and in the case of royal women, hold their own council meetings on policy.

Khosrow II

Khosrow II (aka Kosrau II, r. 590-628) was the last powerful shahanshah (king of kings) of the Sassanian Empire. Grandson of Kosrau I (r. 531-579) and near-conqueror of the Byzantine Empire in the Byzantine-Sassanian War of 602-628, Khosrow II was a devout Zoroastrian, whose favorite wife, Shireen, was a Christian. His reign marks the end of classical Zoroastrian culture before the Islamic conquest of modern-day Iran in 651.

Rise to Power

Khosrow II's father and predecessor, Hormizd IV (r. 570-590), sent his general Bahram Chobin to subdue the hordes of Turkish horsemen who were threatening the Persian Empire. While Chobin successfully ended the threat, Hormizd IV insulted him for losing a minor battle. Chobin was enraged and rebelled against the Sassanian dynasty, the family that had ruled ancient Persia since 224 CE. Then, Khosrow II's uncles, Vistam and Vindoe, also rose in rebellion. The brothers put out Hormizd IV's eye with a red-hot poker.

Women in Ancient Mesopotamia

The lives of women in ancient Mesopotamia cannot be characterized as easily as with other civilizations owing to the different cultures over time. Generally speaking, though, Mesopotamian women had almost equal rights, could own businesses, buy and sell land, live on their own, initiate divorce, and, though officially secondary to men, found ways to assert their autonomy.

The Sassanid Empire c. 620 CE

A map illustrating the rise and expansion of the Sassanid Empire (also known as Erānshahr, "the Domain of the Iranians/Aryans" or Neo-Persian Empire.) Named after the House of Sasan, it was the longest-lived Persian imperial dynasty, enduring from 224 CE until the Islamic conquests in the 7th century. The Sasanians believed themselves successors of the Achaemenids and rivals of the Greco-Roman civilization. The expansion of their power brought perpetual conflict with Rome and Byzantium (at one time holding an Emperor prisoner).
