Siamak

Siamak (Persian: سیامک [sɪjɑˈmæk], sometimes transliterated as Siyamak or Siamac) is a character in Shahnameh, the national epic of Greater Iran.

[1] Ferdowsi's great epic poem begins with the story of Keyumars, the first king to arise among humans, who at that time lived in mountain caves and wore the skins of leopards.

God (Hormazd) granted him the supernatural radiance called farr reserved for kings.

Siāmak accepted a challenge to single combat and died at the hands of the demon.

[citation needed] Other meanings have been also suggested; among others: "bringer of joy" and "great emperor".
