The Iron Cavalry of Alexander the Great charge the enemy with chariots and fire-breathing horses in this 14th-century miniature painting from the Demotte version of the 'Shahnameh'.

The national Persian epic, the 'Shahnameh', meaning 'The King's Chronicles', is a poetic opus written around 1000 CE by Ferdowsi. Regarded as the national folktale of Greater Persia, the Shahnameh consists of some 60,000 verses and tells the mythical and historical past of (Greater) Iran from the creation of the world up until the Islamic conquest of Persia in the 7th century.
