Simurgh
I've been able to find only a little information on the mythical creature Simurgh:
Simurgh Simurgh - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Phoenix Flight I am wondering if anyone has some more knowledge of this besides what can be found readily on the web. Anyone know some books about this or other Persian legends? Thanks, P. |
