 | | Oleg Petrov, author of the Temple of Zoroaster website, tells us that, according to Zoroastrian tradition, he flourished in 588 BC, 258 years before Alexander, who conquered the Persians in 330 BC. |
 | | Moreover, he is said to have converted Vishtaspa, probably a king of Chorasmia (Khwarezmia) south of the Aral Sea in Central Asia,when he was 40 years old. |
 | | If this is assumed to have been when he "flourished" then Zoroaster was born about 628 BC, and died about 551 BC, because tradition makes him 77 years old when he died. |
