Zāl (زال in
Persian) was a mythical warrior of ancient
Iran. He was born with white hair, and his name is used in
Persian to refer to those who suffer from albinism. Zal was the son of
Saam and the grandson of Nariman, both heroes of ancient Iran and protectors of "Iran-zamin". Because of his defect, Zal was rejected by his father who ordered his servants to leave the baby upon Mt.
Damavand. The Mythical
Simurgh bird, who resides upon Mt. Damavand, finds the baby and takes him to her nest where Zal lives until being reunited with his family. Soon after rejoining his family, Zal marries
Rudaba; their child was the great hero
Rostam.
