520    "Originating with Iranian tribes living in Central Asia in
       the second millennium BCE, Zoroastrianism was the official
       religion of the Iranian empires until Islam superseded it 
       in the seventh century AD. This title provides modern 
       translations of Zoroastrian texts that have been selected 
       to provide an overview of Zoroastrian beliefs and 
       practices."--Pub. desc. 
546    Translated from the Pahlavi, Old Persian, Old Avesta, 
       Young Avesta, Middle Persian.
