Formerly known as Sahron Saburjian, he was
the son of a blacksmith, born near Garmsar in
the Talysh family on 28 October 1956 and
ironically may have come from a Jewish
background. The original name, which derives
from “thread painter”, was changed to the
present one, meaning “of virtuous race”,
deriving from the Arabic for “virtuous” and
Farsi for “race”. Opponents have speculated
that the name was changed in order to cover
Jewish roots. Who are we talking about?

void in the English language which…we
undertake to fill…Now, clearly, what is needed
is a more comprehensive term which does

the retention of what the two doubtful terms
have in common. The abbreviation _____ is
