v1.c11.s1.10

¹ Herodotos (i. 131) asserts that the Persians called the whole circle of the heaven Zeus, probably not an allusion to Ahura; Spiegel, *Eran. Alt.* ii. 15; von Schroeder, *Arische Religion*, ii. 338 ff.; Moulton, *Early Zoroastrianism*, pp. 391f. We need not seek to find the actual Iranian name in Herodotos, who naturally uses the Greek term.
