The Cyrus Cylinder is from 2560 years ago; the start of
Persian Calendar year can be based on this important
significant document in the history of mankind which reminds
us who we were and who we want to be.
The Persian culture is the dedication to ethical and moral
excellence which is based on three simple fundamental
principles: GOOD THOUGHTS, GOOD WORDS and GOOD DEEDS.

dinasty and the Persian empire. He conquered Media between
559 and 549 B.C., Lydia in 546, and Babylonia in 538. In EGYPT
