ShahrnÃÂz (; Saà ÂhauuÃÂÃÂë in Avestan) is one of the two daughters (or possibly sisters) of Jamshid, the mythological king of Iran. In some versions of Shahnameh, including the Moscow version and that of á¹®aÿÃÂlebë, ShahrnÃÂz and her sister, ArnavÃÂz are the daughters of Jamshid, but in others, they are his sisters.
According to the Shahnameh, when Jamshid became proud of himself and lost his Khvarenah, Zahhak made the war upon Jamshid, and he was welcomed by many of Jamshid's dissatisfied subjects. Jamshid fled from his capital, but ShahrnÃÂz and ArnavÃÂz were captured and forced to consort Zahhak. After Fereydun finally defeated Zahhak and imprisoned him in mount DamÃÂvand, he married both sisters. Shahrnaz bore him two sons Tur and Salm, while ArnavÃÂz bore him his youngest son, Iraj. Fereydun then divided the world between his sons, giving Rum (Rome) to Salm, Turan to Tur, and Iran to Iraj.
