Arash

From Avestan 𐬆𐬭𐬆𐬑𐬱𐬀 (Ərəxša), of uncertain meaning, possibly from a root meaning "bear" [1] . In Iranian legend Arash was an archer who was ordered by the Turans to shoot an arrow, the landing place of which would determine the new location of the Iran-Turan border. Arash climbed a mountain and fired his arrow with such strength that it flew for several hours and landed on the banks of the far-away Oxus River.
