N2  -  In some historical works, particularly those by the Greek historians, the ethics of ancient Iranians and their avoidance of falsehood have thoroughly been discussed. These historians have clearly found the ethical principles of the Iranians worthy of attention. The basic question is whether the ethical principles of the ancient Iranians had religious origins. To what extent were the religions of ancient Iran involved in this case? Which religion’s teachings had provided the most support for their ethical teachings? In response to the above question and by comparative and analytical study, this hypothesis is evaluated that the origin of ethical rules in ancient Iran was the fundamental and ancient principle of "Asha" and this principle has been confirmed in Zoroastrianism as a religious teaching. The religions of ancient Iran, with all their differences, have based their teachings on this principle and have drawn the necessary lines in this field. This research conclude that the origins and moral criteria of the ancient Iranians can be traced in this way.
