Aramazd (Armenian: Արամազդ) was the chief and creator god in the Armenian version of Zoroastrianism.[1] The deity and his name were derived from the deity Ahura Mazda after the Median conquest of Armenia in the 6th century BC.[2] Aramazd was regarded as a generous god of fertility, rain, and abundance, as well as the father of the other gods, including Anahit, Mihr, and Nane. Like Ahura Mazda, Aramazd was seen as the father of the other gods, rarely with a wife, though sometimes husband to Anahit or Spandaramet. Aramazd was the Parthian form of Ahura Mazda.[3]
