Talk:Madai

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Budahish and Medes

The verse from Budahish does not mention Madai or Medes, You can check it out here Budahish Ch.29. It just says Eranvej is in the direction of Ataro-patakan [Azerbaijan], but there no mention of Madai or Medes. So I removed the sentence.Heja Helweda 08:42, 25 March 2007 (UTC)


This paragraph you removed does not say Bundahish mentioned Medes; It only says Zoroastrian religion of the Medes says so...
In the oldest writings of the Zoroastrian religion of the Medes, the earliest homeland of the Aryan race had been a legendary place called "Airyanem Vaejah", traditionally (eg., in the Bundahish 29:12) associated with Arran and the valley of the Araxes river, which rises next to Mount Ararat
Some sources have used Medes as synonymous for Iranian the same as some have used Persian as synonymous for Iranian. Asoyrun 11:57, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
The paragraph has nothing to do with Madai. You have to provide a source in which explicitly mentions that Madai came from Airyanam Vaejah.Heja Helweda 05:16, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
No, sorry, this is 100% relevant; the verse doesn't have to mention 'Madai' by name because this is about the religious book of the Medes. ፈቃደ (ውይይት) 11:45, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
