Notes
Template:Project DFA-Active Research
This is a controversial record that may be under dispute. |
In the Shahnama, this king is called the son of Siamak meaning not necessarly the literal son of but rather descendant of... Seth.
During Hushang's reign, many new discoveries were made for the comfort of humanity. Hushang discovered iron and the principles of iron-working; the methods of agriculture and irrigation; he learned how to domesticate certain beasts as livestock and for use as draught animals; how to make clothing from the furs of other beasts; and he discovered how to make fire from flint. This happened when Hushang hurled a flint rock to kill a venomous black serpent. Missing the serpent, the rock struck another flint to produce fiery sparks. Hushang learned how to make fire this way, and taught his people; in honor of the discovery, they established the Sadeh festival.
In Greek Mythology, the knowledge of making fire was granted to humans by the God Promethius. It is possible there is a connection here between the myths of Pishdāth and Promethius. And that the connection was made between the two around 500-100BC in the region of the Black sea as the Parthians established water traderoutes between east and west.
