Mihr Narseh, was a powerful Sasanian nobleman and grand vizier of the Sasanian Empire during the reigns of the Sasanian kings Yazdegerd I (399-420 CE), Bahram V (420–438), Yazdegerd II (438–457) and Peroz I (457–484).
Mihr Narseh was a member of the noble House of Suren, one of the Seven Great Houses of Iran. After having served several Sasanian kings, Mihr Narseh retired to Pars, his native homeland.[1] He may have been succeeded by Suren Pahlav. He had three sons named Zurwandad, Kardar, and Mahgushnasp.
