Angra Mainyu
The word "ahriyan" derives from the Persian word Ahura Mazda. Ahura Mazda is a twin soul to Angra Mainyu, who consciously chooses badness, and so creates death. The main theme is the war between Angra Mainyu and Ahura Mazda in Zoroastrian theology which is an antique Iran religion. In Sasanies times the common language was mid-term Persian (Pahlavi) and Angra Mainyu was called "ahriman" in this language. At least after a thousand-year oral tradition, in twenty one-part Avesta which was probably written in B.C. 6, ‘angra’ means enemy, sin, bad and ‘mainyu’ (mainyêush, mainyô, mainyush, mainyû) means soul, invisibility, spiritual. Although it is used common ahriman forms in Anatolia, there appear to be uncommon ahriman forms in Salpazarı which has Alevilik (partisan of the caliph Ali) features.
