Decipher [antikvár]

AVESTIC ARYANS - PRE-ISLAMIC IRAN - MIDDLE EAST Ahura Mazda created Airyana Vaejo, the originál paradise and birthplace of the Aryan race. There were seven months of summer and five of winter. But after Angra Mainyu, the Evil One, was finished, there were only two months of summer and ten of winter. A mighty serpent, intense cold, thick ice and snow is all that haunts the land now. It is so cold that nothing can survive there. Yima, instead of building an Ark, was ordered to make a Var, an underground place linking the four corners so that specimens of every living thing could be brought there and saved.
