Secret to Nowruz’s endurance lies in respect for all humanity: Researcher

Nowruz belongs to whole world

By Sadeq Dehqan
Staff writer

Nowruz, the festival marking the beginning of the Iranian New Year, stands as one of the oldest celebrations in Iranian history, with roots stretching back to ancient Iran and even prehistory.
The origins of Nowruz lie in Greater Iran and the broader cultural sphere of the Iranian Plateau—an expanse that, during the Achaemenid Empire, encompassed vast parts of the Caucasus, Central Asia, Mesopotamia, Anatolia, as well as regions of present-day India, China, and even parts of Europe.
Given this extensive historical reach, it’s no surprise that Nowruz is still celebrated across many of these nations and has even been enshrined as an official holiday in their national calendars.
