	Ahuramazda and Zoroastrianism
		Ahuramazda: The 'wise lord', the supreme god of the Persians, whose cult was propagated by the legendary prophet Zarathustra.
		Zoroastrians were probably not the only ones who believed in Ahuramazda (he is also mentioned in an Assyrian enumeration of native and foreign deities from the reign of king Aurbanipal); and as to Darius' dislike of lies - well, no one would say that he delights in deceit.
		Afterwards, by the favor of Ahuramazda I destroyed that sanctuary of daiva, and I made proclamation: 'The daiva shall not be worshipped!' Where previously the daiva were worshipped, there I worshipped Ahuramazda at the proper time and in the proper manner.

		The cult of the solar god Aten is often cited as the earliest known example of monotheism, but even if Akhetaten's hymn to Aten praises this god as omnipotent creator, worship of other gods beside him never ceased.
		Early examples of monotheism also include two late rigvedic hymns (10.129,130) to a Panentheistic creator god, Shri Rudram, a Vedic hymn to Rudra, an earlier aspect of Shiva, which expressed monistic theism, and is still chanted today, the Zoroastrian Ahuramazda and Chinese Shang Ti.
		The worship of polytheistic gods, on the other hand, is seen by many to predate monotheism, reaching back as far as the paleolithic.
