There are many Turkic superheroes depicted in the ancient folklore, literary
fiction, and historic prose. For centuries, people in many regions of ancient Uzbekistan and
Iran glorified the extraordinary traits of brave Jamshid who is famous for his immortality,
symbol of happiness, and creator of all handcrafts and professions.
This article introduces the historical ethno genesis of Jamshid, how his characters
developed with time into a symbol of bravery, immortality, glory, and prosperity. The very
first image of Jamshid can be found in the Iranian manuscripts of ancient “Avesto” and
Indian mythology. Additionally, the author observes the interpretation of Jamshid in various
historically works and literary fiction.
