 Avesta - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Avesta, as used today, is essentially the result of that revision, although important sections of the text have been lost since then, especially after the fall of the Persian empire, after which Zoroastrianism was supplanted by Islam.
Several Avesta manuscripts were collected by Rasmus Rask on a visit to Bombay (now Mumbai) in 1820, and it was Rask's examination of the Avestan language that first established that the texts must indeed be the remnants of a much larger literature of sacred texts of ancient Persia and Bactria (Ta-Hsia).
In contrast, the texts of the Avesta proper remained sacrosanct and continued to be recited in Avestan - which was considered a sacred language.

 Avesta | Topic Definition | Find the Meaning and Define the Answer of Avesta
The Avesta is a collection of the sacred texts of ancient Persia belonging to the Zoroastrian religion.
This story is not generally accepted by scholars now, but it is acknowledged that the existing text of the Avesta is a fraction of the full texts that existed in antiquity, before the decline of the Zoroastrian faith.
The manuscripts of the Zend Avesta were chiefly collected by Rasmus Rask on a visit to Bombay in 1820, who handed them to the University library of Copenhagen.

Formerly a copper mining and refining center, Avesta was the seat of copper minting in Sweden from 1644 to 1831.
Our present Avesta is essentially the work of this redaction, although important sections of the text have been lost since then, especially after the Islamic conquest of Persia (637-651), after which Zoroastrianism was supplanted by Islam.
The Avesta, as we now have it, is usually divided into five sections, relating to the ritual, hymns of praise, the liturgy, and the law.
