Examples include Sanskrit, Old Persian, Latin, Greek, and many modern languages like English, Spanish, Russian, and Hindi.

In Old Persian, it appears as "arya", used similarly.
19th-Century Scholarship: European scholars in the 19th century, studying the similarities between Sanskrit, Persian, and European languages, identified the existence of a proto-Indo-European language and postulated a common ancestral culture, often labeled as "Aryan".

Zoroastrianism: Ahura Mazda
Aúra-Masda is also the god of the sky, wisdom, abundance, and fertility. He can prophesy. He is accompanied by a group of spirits called the Amshaspends. He is the father of Atar, the fire of heaven; of Gayomart, the first mortal human being (the first human being, according to Persian mythology, had been Ima, who was immortal), created from light and who would have given rise to all other human beings; and of Mitra, god of wisdom, war and the sun.
