"(...) Based On Persian Literature It Can Be Concluded That Hawraman/Uramanat Was A Land In Which Sun-Worshippers Lived And As We Know During The Reign Of The Achaemenid Empire, Zoroastrianism Was Popular In The Area." (Nomination File, P. 49) "Some Scholars Believe That The Name Hawraman Or Huraman Has Strong Connections To The Ancient Zoroastrian Faith And Claim That The Name May Have Originated From Ahuraman Or Ahura Mazda. (...) Many Areas In The Avroman Region Are Believed To Have Been Pilgrimage Sites For Zoroastrians Prior To The Advent Of Islam."
