| Sumario: | Like time, space is one of the fundamental categories of our thinking. Their concepts do not remain constant in different cultures or in changing time periods, which is why dealing with a historical cultural phenomenon always requires the processing of these categories in their specific culture and their specific time period. Based on the oldest linguistic and architectural evidence of Iran from the 12th to the 4th century BC. Kianoosh Rezania offers for the first time a comprehensive study of the spatial concepts in Zoroastrianism of ancient Iran. Based on current and historical spatial theories, the Zoroastrian spaces are divided into cosmic, cultic and social spaces. The representation of the cosmic spaces describes spatial abstracts in ancient Iranian languages as well as Zoroastrian boundary drawing principles and asks which coordinate systems the Altirans used for their orientation in space and how they converted their cognitive maps into text. This also includes the representation of the worldview of the Zoroastrians according to their older text documents. At the intersection of cosmic and cultural spaces, there are spaces of transcendence that include, on the one hand, utopian and, on the other hand, spaces for communication with gods described by poets. Since the study does not exclude dynamics and processes of change in the ritual area, reconstructions of Zoroastrian ritual surfaces in the Avestan period are presented without using more recent materials. In addition, the spatially represented social structure of the Avestan society as well as its spatial symbolic order are presented. |
