Shabrang

The Shabrang, Night-coloured purebred Horse

Grouping| Mythical creature
Folklore| Persian mythology
Country| Ancient Iran

Shabrang ("[having] the colour of night")[1][2] is the legendary horse of the Persian hero Siyâvash in the Shahnameh. In a trial of his righteousness, Siyâvash passed through a large fire riding this stallion. After his death, his son Kai Khosrow, eventually became the ruler of Persia and was among the most magnificent and benevolent rulers according to Shahnameh. He disappeared and in traditional Zoroastrian mythology, he never died and will return to bring justice riding on his father's horse Shabrang.
