“This Pehlevi is simply the old name for the Persian language, and there can be little doubt that Pehlevi, which is the Persian name for what is ancient was derived from Pahlav, a hero warrior, which pahlav again is a regular modification of parthav, the name of the Parthians who were the rulers pf Persia for nearly fiver hundred years.
