Siyâvash

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Siyâvash (in Persian: سياوش‎) was a legendary Persian prince from the earliest days of the Persian Empire. He was a son of Kai Kavoos, then Shah of Iran, and due the treason of his stepmother, Soodabeh (with whom he refused to have sex, betraying his father), self-exiled himself to Turan where he was killed innocently by the order of The Turanian king Afrasiab. He is a symbol of innocence in Persian Literature.
