Koorosh (Cyrus) The Great
Ancient Iranians never celebrated one's birthday or mourn one's death.
They believed that everyone comes to this world and leaves one
day. What mattered to them was what one's did to make his or her
life worthwhile!

Koorosh
(Cyrus) the Great (600 - 529 BCE) the pride of Iranian people was a
towering figure in the history of mankind. He Koorosh, the king of
kings was the first
Hakhamaneshian (Achaemenian) emperor of ancient Iran who
issued a decree on his aims and policies, later hailed as his charter of
the rights of nations. Inscribed on a clay cylinder, this decree is
known to be the first declaration of human rights and is now kept at the
British Museum. A replica
of this charter is also at the United Nations in New York.
It symbolizes “multiculturalism,” a word coined to express
not only the peaceful coexistence in one land of people from different
backgrounds and cultures, but a doctrine of diversity that is the
foundation of advanced societies today. Koorosh (Cyrus) the Great will
be remembered forever.
