- Short Description
- "Simurgh (/sɪˈmɜːrɡ/; Persian: سيمرغ, also spelled simorgh, simorg, simurg, simoorg, simorq or simourv) is a benevolent, mythical bird in Persian mythology and literature. It is sometimes equated with other mythological birds such as a "phoenix" (Persian: ققنوس quqnūs) and humā (Persian: هما). The figure can be found in all periods of Iranian art and literature and is also evident in the iconography of Azerbaijan, Georgia, medieval Armenia, the Eastern Roman Empire, and other regions that were within the realm of Persian cultural influence." - (en.wikipedia.org 10.08.2021)
