Does the Chinese word "witch" come from Iranian? Thank god, help me.
Iranian culture also had a profound influence on two other ancient civilizations-China and India. The influence of Iran on China in the Middle Ages is well known, because the western regions before the Tang Dynasty basically belonged to the Iranian cultural circle. Therefore, the traditional lion dance in China has the origin of Persian culture (see Bai Juyi's famous poem Xiliang Geisha). Recent archaeological discoveries also reveal that Iran may have influenced the divination culture in Shang and Zhou Dynasties, and even the word "witch" in Chinese came from Iran. As for ancient India, its Aryan culture is homologous to Iran (Iran is a variant of the word "Aryan"). Although India has a long history of civilization, writing did not appear until the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, which is equivalent to China. Scholars generally believe that the ancient Iranian empire with highly developed administrative culture extended to Afghanistan and northwest India, which led to the input of characters into India.
